Huddle question: if you could conjure up a trade for a decent WR, what would it involve? Draft picks?  Draft picks and a player? Who would this player be and which draft picks? Who would you try to trade for?

Funchess is a work in progress and the progress seems to be crawling along at this rate (no pun intended). I think D.G will wait till the final cuts but doubt anyone worth a damn will be there. So if he suprises us and pulls the trigger....who and how should it go down. What you got?

We aren't extremely deep at many positions yet, but you would have to figure it would be a TD scorer, with at least 2 years left on his contract, and a pretty low cap number for DG to consider it.

Derek Anderson will have the highest trade value on the roster that isn't a "starter".

I just don't see it.

I'm not at all up to speed on trade strategies, so I don't think I'll try this, but is there any team desperately needing help at LB?  Could AJ Klein or Glanton be of interest to any team.  We are so ridiculously deep at LB.... but it's hard to imagine trading a starting WR for LB depth.

LB , RB , &  a backup QB, and a draft pick can get you a decent pick.

A trade is not going to happen. We really have no one of value to ship off and there really is not a WR on the block that will fit our need. 

Well, just keep in mind that by and large player-for-player deals are really rare in the NFL anyways. A team that's going to ship a player off is typically going to look at a pick as more valuable than bringing another player (and more salary) in. Chip Kelly is really one of the few GMs in the league that has done player-for-player trades recently.

Anyway, if we go that route, I just don't want to give up anything more than a 5th.

Yea its not that easy. 

 

 

Any wide receiver on the block fits our need......

I think the problem is every team is going to want a 2nd for a subpar player. I might be wrong but it just seems to me there is no savior coming in at this point. 

Hell the Packers are suffering from the same thing, it just sucks when you lose the guys that are supposed to be the one,two, punch of your team.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
