Re: Trade Deadline Oct 28th -- Any Ideas?

The difficulty of the trade is that nobody out there has anything actually worth getting, that they are willing to part with and let go of! I'm sure some bottom-feeder team would trade a marginal no-name for a marginal no-name, barely above the practice squad level, but getting a QUALITY player who can jump in and make an impact NOW is gonna be tough, and expensive (in terms of picks or whatever).

Not a trade, but currently I am secretly glommed onto the full-on moronic "RIchie Incognito, should we?" bandwagon. The dude could be signed and quarantined and put in a quasi-state of lockdown by the coaches (kinda like they did with Anthony Hargrove and his drug problems, they had him in counseling and people keeping an eye on him practically 24/7 as he worked with the team) and give Incognito no cell phone, no Twitter, no jackassery, etc., just put him in to play and protect Drew, maybe in a half backup, half starter rotational role.... Like I said, in reality I know it's incredibly dumb, but man...if he were just a couple of years younger, we could move Grubbs or Evans somewhere and get rid of their contract, get Incognito for much cheaper, I would be all over that ridiculous move, for next season....

I'd be fine with us just sitting with what we have.

Byrd/Vaccaro for Jenkins/Harper?

C'mon, you knew it was coming.

I'd prefer to roll with who we have. Personnel isn't the problem.

I'd give up a 3rd or 4th to have Jenkins back. The grass wasn't greener for us. You're right though, personnel isn't the issue.

You'd need to give up a first before the division rival ahead of you gave him up

Are you thinking of Harper? Harper is playing for Carolina; Jenkins is playing in Philadelphia now.

My mistake; I was.
however, it would take the same to get back Jenkins, plus we couldn't afford him

Trade Drew Brees for Kurt Cousins and 2 rd 1 picks. Oh and just for the record I love Brees.

I think personnel is part of the problem but there is really nobody out there any better.
