Would DG consider this?

I said I'd give up a 2nd at the trade deadline and still would.  They wanted two 1sts though.  No way on giving up a 1st.  Here's hoping Seattle is gullible and desperate enough for that.  

On the other hand we do have the cap space and Oher is either going to be let go or get a huge raise next year anyway.  This would give us the best line in football by a long shot with zero anxieties in the near future.  Oher to the right with Williams/Remmers as depth is a wet dream.

Yeah I think giving up a 1st would not be ideal but I agree, maybe a 2nd or maybe a 3rd this year plus Klein...

By the way of the teams mentioned as contenders or possibilities for the trade we have more cap room by far.  Which, obviously, means that with less market we wouldn't have to give up as much in theory.

Nick Saban also said he'd never coach at Alabama.  Everyone has their price although they have cap room so that's not a concern for them.  But they've already shopped him for goodness sake.  If their price is a 1st however I hope it's no-go for us.  With one exception...

Joe Thomas and the #2 overall (Jalen Ramsey) for JNo and our 1st and 2nd.  Joe Haden is overrated, just had surgery, and may not be ready for the opener.  Justin Gilbert is a complete bust.  Maybe, just maybe, being the Browns, they see JNo being younger than Thomas and bite, although I think Thomas would have equal or greater bang for buck over the next 3-4 years.

Alfred Morris is a Cowboy.  

That's a really good signing for both parties though I still think the Cowboys should just take Elliott at 4 and run him to death for the next 2-3 years. That's their best chance at playoff success during Romo's short remaining window.

This is not free agent news, but Justin Houston had ACL surgery last month and could miss the entire 2016 season. Optimistically he is back by midseason. Relevant to the Panthers since we play the Chiefs next year and him not playing would be huge especially given Remmers' difficulties with guys who can bend the edge and Houston lines up across from the RT the majority of the time.
