I'd take it and run!

Take the pick and try to find a sleeper for the O-Line

Wo!!! Slow your roll, 10 teams are interested... We might get more than what we bargained for I would try sending him to Houston before I would try sending him to Baltimore.

It's a balancing act - what we get and what money is released vs. Sproles' value on the field. I still think this is a tough decision for the front office, but agreed they aren't going to release him until they get the right deal to make it worth it.

If I was Loomis I would call Sproles and act like it was April Fool's day. Then laugh it off and tell him he's still a big part of the team.

Also by trading him he can be placed in thr AFC.Though the thought of playing him with the Ravens isnt great.

Anyway looking at Drafttek and Bleacherreport (I know) 7 round mocks a few players that stand out at mid round 6.

Cody Hoffman WR BYU
James Hurst OT N.Carolina
Loucheiz Purifoy CB Florida
Aaron Colvin CB Oklahoma (somebody will take the risk late round 3/4 imo)
Jackson Jeffcoat DE/OLD
Jeremy Hill RB LSU
Devin Street WR Pitts
Ryan Grant WR Tulane
Michael Sam OLD/DE

I can see a few of them being off the board personally

Larry Holder just tweeted that Sproles saying he wants to be released not traded.

Trouble in paradise.

Saints RB Darren Sproles to me on the handling of his future: "I want to get released. I don't want to be traded. I don't know where they would send me because I have no control over it and I want to be able to pick. The good thing is none of the teams I'm told they're talking to are terrible. It's more than two. I feel I should have more of an idea later on today."

I'd sit him down and say these are the 10(or however many); pick where you want to go... lol
