Who would take Lance off our hands- and for what?

There are only a handful of teams at this point that would be stupid or desperate enough to take Lance off our hands.

One of them sticks out like a sore thumb because they have a disgruntled player that wants to get out-

 

And NO I'm not talking about Kanter in Utah. I'm talking about Jason Thompson in Sacramento. He has been on the block ever since he signed in Sac-town and has wanted out for a long time. Rumor is he is demanding a trade.

 

He is under contract for the same amount if time as Lance- 3 years (no team option though). He would definitely give us more size and scoring ability down low. I know we need more 3pt shooting, but with Mo Williams/PJ/Kemba coming back/Marvin seeming to knock it down more consistent lately and Taylor gathering a few minutes here and there- our 3pt shooting might be well off. Not to mention the absence of Lance would have to improve our FG% as a whole.

 

I think there are a lot of better players I would rather scoop up, but in reality- not a lot is out there in the market for Lance even if we tie a 1st round draft pick to him (btw, Cho will never do that). So this might be a best case scenario unless we can team up in a 3 team trade of some sorts. Time will tell.

I don't think there are any good options out there currently. Personally I'd take back pretty much anything as long as it wasn't a deal past next year, and giving up no assets. Our best bet is probably to just let him rot on the bench for the rest of this season, and then buy him out at the start of next year.

    • After the Chiefs game a 6'5 X would really help in the Red zone. I would also love to add Slayton in FA 
    • But again, you can restock a defense through free agency much easier than offensive skill positions. Spend all our cap space on defense, take a true elite prospect who also happens to fit a position of need in T-Mac, and then use the rest of our picks on defense. Again, every season there’s a smattering of great DL, LB, and DB options in free agency, a Top 10 WR never hits free agency, ever.  The only way you get one is through the draft or giving up 1st round picks in a trade for one. If he’s there when we’re on the clock, he has to be the pick, he’s just that good.  
    • It must be an early Christmas for JT O'Sullivan having Thielen back so he could put a coal in Thielen's stocking every chance he gets.  Honestly, the biggest surprise is not so much the anticipation. There were those moments here and there last year as well. It's that even that one positive quality he had seemingly vanished his first two games to where it looked like it was all but over, only for it to start coming back some until you get exclamation points all over this game film. And some of those throws were under a lot of duress, something I feel is something new. Finally, those deeper shots are starting to land. Not all of them, but enough that defenses may have to start respecting them. No guarantees whether this will end up as more of anomaly but I certainly hope it isn't. The Green Bay game was a sampler of what BY could be. Against KC, we got a meal. If we could start getting these meals regularly, we might actually have something to work with here.
