Trade Deadline Moves, News, and Speculation


Leeroy Jenkins PhD

Recommended Posts

Figured we should have a post for any trades made today before the deadline.  I will attempt to keep this updated throughout the day.

Vernon Davis - Traded from SanFran to Denver.  (Swap 2016 6th and 7th, and a 2017 6th)

The Titans have fired Ken Whisenhunt.

49ers signing Pierre Thomas according to a source

Lions WR Calvin Johnson reportedly not at practice this morning.

A fun one to watch: #Patriots have interest in #Titans CB Jason McCourty to pair him with his twin, Devin. Alas, deal not expected right now

Teams have been talking to 49ers about their OL. Sense they get is Staley more available than some others

Cowboys have released Joseph Randle.

Chargers' WR Keenan Allen underwent a kidney procedure – not a surgery – and could be out for season, per league sources. 2015 uncertain.

Not that there was much of a chance, but #49ers aren’t trading Colin Kaepernick. They haven’t ruled him out starting later in the season.

Names I've heard the most on during deadline day: Staley (among other 49ers) , J. Cook, Kruger, Mingo, Streater, M. Cooper, Willie Young,

Just now, Jeremy Igo said:

7-0

 

 

Why make any trades? 

I get the whole "lets not mess with team chemistry" philosophy but come on, Ginn almost cost us the game. I saw somewhere that we have over 15 total drops in the last 3 games. Our WRs are bad, really bad. I honestly don't care if we make a trade or not because I know Gman doesn't have many options but we need to stop this bullshit were we act like our WRs are fine. They are not.

    • True.  Sam and Baker did not do well here but went on to better things under better coaching, circumstances or both.  The real question is, ‘why aren’t the Panthers able to get improved performance out of ‘broken toys’, similar to Minnesota and Tampa? That is a rhetorical question.  I think we know the answer.   [The cultural reference to Pogo dates me, I admit.]
    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.  
    • I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch
