Upcoming Cuts - Trades Possible ?

[Paa Langfart]

With the seeming wealth of talent we have at a number of positions, linebackers the most noticeable, does anyone think there is a possibility of a trade as we get closer to the regular season ( assuming we stay healthy ) and if so who would it likely be  ?

I suppose it's possible but you very rarely see player trades in the NFL. If we were to trade a player it would be a Glanton or Klein type guy who is on the bubble anyway. All we'd get in return would be a late rd pick I'd bet.

No trade but I can see us picking a guy up after cuts. That's always the most likely scenario. I would guess Olne depth would be the area we would grab a guy for. Even if the starters do great our 2nd string Olineman are very suspect and worrysome.

My first instinct was, "Trades? No way we trade".  But then I remembered that just last year we traded Kenjon Barner to Philly for conditional picks.  It didn't work out since Philly cut him, but it allowed us to free up 53 man spots with some potential compensation in return.  Maybe he does the same this year with some bubble RB's or WR's?

I'll give it a 50-50. I would bet that this time of year there is always someone who is spying a possible trade as our rosters develop behind the scenes.  Why drop a player that shows promise if you can get another player with promise or a late round pick?

Of course I may be seeing thing through Panther-colored glasses, but I don't believe that we'll just cut guys like Klein or Glanton without giving a trade an attempt.  And with Gman's connection to the Giants, and an apparent proclivity towards acquiring smart guys in later rounds that Billy B. apparently seems to appreciate, the chance that we trade one of these guys may even be likely.

And, in cased you missed it http://www.patriots.com/news/2015/08/11/patriots-acquire-g-ryan-groy-trade-chicago, Billy is always up for a trade.

trades are rare this time of year because all teams will wait for final cuts to

see if they fill a hole for free

Yeah I said  " as we get closer to the regular season "

I am always surprised more teams are not interested in DA.  The man looks great in the preseason and was undefeated last year.  With teams like the Jets, Bills, and Texans with no real NFL starter, DA would be an improvement over anything on their roster.

Given the importance of the qb position, having a decent backup is important.  We don't really want to part with him, but probably would for the right price.  However, I think the teams that might want Anderson wouldn't be willing to meet our asking price.

what would you take?  I'd ask for a 2nd, and I don't think many teams would give that up.  QBs are just hard to find.

I hear the Jets are looking for LB depth..... Klein for some O-line?

[LinvilleGorge]

I could definitely see us adding some OT depth.  Not sure about trade, but more like picking up someone as other teams trim down their rosters.  Any depth chart that features Nate Chandler on the two deep scares the hell out of me.  Everyone bashes Byron Bell and for good reason, but it seems like most have forgotten that Chandler was even worse.
