Trade Bait
 

Seeing how we're five deep (Thomas/ Ingram/ Sproles/ Ivory/ Cadet) with RB's do you think we can get any future picks for Ivory or Cadet in a trade with a Detroit? With suspensions and injuries, they have nothing and seem kind of desperate.

Any thoughts?

At this point, I would guess, Detroit will probably wait until Friday to see what shakes loose around the NFL in the last roster cut.

Re: Trade Bait
 

True, any competent front office probably has identified 4 or 5 legit prospects at every need position likely to be cut by other teams.

I'm sure that Ivory and Cadet are on many of those lists.

Just saw this on Rotoworld.com

"CBS Sports' Jason LaCanfora reports Lions GM Martin Mayhew has been calling other teams in search of a running back.This report suggests not only that the organization is aiming higher than free agent Ryan Grant, but also that Kevin Smith's ankle injury could end up leaving his status up in the air for the season opener. Saints power back Chris Ivory makes a lot of sense; he's fourth on the depth chart, and undrafted rookie Travaris Cadet has impressed in preseason action. "

Maybe they don't want to wait till Friday.

I could see us getting a 6 or 7th round pick but nthing more than that.

Re: Trade Bait
 

Slo- what will you give us? I'd take a 5th

Re: Trade Bait
 

Barring Sproles and an unproven Cadet, our RB's are fragile. We are going to need them down the stretch. A 6 or 7th is just not worth it IMO.
A 5th though for Cadet or Ivory I'm taking that deal along with a kicker if they hit certain earmarks.

Re: Trade Bait
 

I wouldn't trade with NO if I was any team.

I would sit tight and wait until they start cutting.

Re: Trade Bait
 

What's a draft pick?

Re: Trade Bait
 

I think Cadet is going to be a stud. A healthy version of Ivory. If we trade anyone, as much as I love him, it's gotta be Ivory.
