Howard for Surtain?
I am not diagreeing with you on WANTING Surtain, I am disagreeing with you on being able to AFFORD him. I want him too, or Samari Rolle or Fred Smoot. Simple fact is though, we are priced out of that market. Also, Hartwell is worth Howard, but he is a free agent. We can simply try to sign him. Trading Howard is more about getting a draft pick than getting another player, unless we go after a restricted free agent. Is that guy Pierce from Wash restricted? He is a pretty good LB and we could trade Howard for him and a pick. I am of the opinion we should trade Howard for Coles and a pick, and trade Joe Horn for a defender and a pick, but that\'s just me. Gives us a younger WR, a defender at a position of need, and two extra picks, whether they be early or late. So like I said, I agree with you 100% on the WANTING of surtain, just the affording is not gonna let it happen.

Howard for Surtain?
i am basic agreement with whodi\'s thoughts. i have however so little hope or faith in this front office that i wouldnt mind seeing that trade if it would happen. i\'d rather see those dollars and on the field and have fakhir as a really good dime-nickel guy than a 1st or 2nd rd draft pick de on the bench. more though, just that it would be SOMETHING in trying to shakeup-overhaul. not that it is what i would prescribe or think best, just my anticipation now is of seeing another ruff-rogers journeyman role player being signed, no splash, no significant impact.

1. DT 2. SLB 3. WLB 4. CB 5. SS 6. FS 7. LT 8. RT 9. TE 10.WR Hmmm, I\'d pretty much trade him for just about any talented player. |
