If we did trade Smith what could we get in draft picks?


Happy Panther

I think he is every bit worth a third round pick. The Pats have a mid 3rd from the Moss trade. It is just to type of lateral upside moves they usually make. Moss unhappy ditch him and bring in hungry Smitty. Give me a extra third to address either DT or OG.

depends on the teams record that we trade him to really. If you do it before the trade deadline thats one thing, but now you have to wait until the offseason and teams know exactly where their picking. That being said, if we trade him it'll be either cuz A. he wants to go to a contender or B.the new coach doesent want him poisoining Andrew Luck.

That being said late third or early 4th if it were to happen.

Most likely nothing more than a 4th at this stage in his carreer. The best we could do would be a 3rd, but I can't think of a single team in the league where SS would be the missing link to a Champoinship.

He would be a nice addition for a few teams (and no, not the Pats), but not so needed that anybody would be willing to trade the potential of a 3rd for 3-4 years of play for a guy who is essentially a slot reciever at this point in his carreer.

Texans come to mind. Would be a great with Shaub fit and they could use a threat on the other side.

What about the Ram with 2 guys i have barely heard of?

Maybe even Bears or Packers

    • 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.
