What is Donte Worth?

chRxis · 08-19-2006, 11:11 AM

but i would take any of the afore mentioned and try to plug them into the #2 spot right now

i meant that i would not do this.... sorry

D24pick · 08-19-2006, 11:14 AM

I don't like it, seriously! The guy had a #1 yr last yr, he gets better every year and look who was at QB last yr...He'll stay my #2, I don't care how good they look, they haven't even played a regular season game before and he has...

If we did get rid of him, I say to the Eagles for a 4th rounder along with Roderick Hood

chRxis · 08-19-2006, 11:16 AM

rod hood? no shot... sheldon brown or lito sheppard, no less than one of them....

chRxis · 08-19-2006, 11:18 AM

we don't really need another 4th rd. pick.... if we are going to give away an offensive option, then we need an instant defensive option... not a "maybe down the road" option in the future.... but then again, i really don't see stallworth going anywhere, so why i am i even replying to this nonsense...

For those who don't want Stallworth traded...

How do you propose we strengthen our weaknesses?

chRxis · 08-19-2006, 11:32 AM

our weaknesses should have been strengthened earlier (before the draft), not at the eleventh hour or waiting for the waiver wire.... we simply ignored it during the early free agent period and were hoping that what we have is good enough, which it isn't.... lots of finger crossing going on in the coaches offices.... trading stallworth leaves us with one receiving threat.... hass is a good possesion reciever and makes for a great check down option, but he's not a #2, not yet.... i hope, boy do i hope, he develops into one, esp. given joe horn's age, but right now he's a #3 at best.... same for colston and jones... henderson and johnson can go blow each other b/c that's what they do.... suck...

D24pick · 08-19-2006, 11:33 AM

Hood is a very good player, Sheppard is at the end of a contract and Brown, we all know that they aren't giving away their best two corners...

Why not Hood??? He has awesome #'s for a team with Brown and Sheppard, hes very young, and then we could get at most a 3rd rounder

chRxis · 08-19-2006, 11:37 AM

he's good, but his numbers are good, b/c of brown and sheppard.... if they weren't there his numbers would not be anywhere near what they are... he's a great nickel player, but i'll take proven (sheppard/brown) over possibility (hood) anyday....

I have posted elsewhere, the standard is that the broncos will take a 3rd for Lelie, the most comparable player. They haven't had any takers. I say Donte is better than him so maybe we could get a bite for a third rounder.

Disclaimer- I am a Donte fan. I do not however think the team can find a way to retain him for 2007. Thus, I would rather something for him than another walkaway for nothing like Bentley and Howard.

The good looking even if unproven young receivers make this a lot easier too. I would rather a player that might help some of the weak links more though also.

Thinking on the Donnie Edwards thing too... If we are offering a 4th and they say no, and if we value Donte as a 3rd, then why not offer Donte for Edwards and a 6th rounder from SD?

Come on Mickey make something happen so we can get the new guys up to speed with the system here.

----If Donte sees an unusual amount of time and/or passes thrown to him Monday, that might be an indicator that they are showcasing him for a deal. Oui?

We are recently in a trade for giving up Bethel and a low pick for Edwards, why Stall???

Don't be silly, please

On the Hood situation, he has those #'s b/c he earned his playing time...He never played at nickel, he was on the sideline or in at #2 or 1...If he is a good nickle, why not get him now and develop him

Eagles aren't giving away those two guys period, and you shou;d know that
