MI Potential Trade

I personally think we would benefit from keeping him but I also have that feeling he may return and be a locker room cancer.

Why would you think he'd suddenly become "a locker room cancer"? He is one of the single most popular players on the roster among fellow teammates from everything I've heard or seen.

No evidence other than a personal feeling. Maybe due to his being suspended and being in a contract year. Maybe he comes back when other backs didn’t just cover for him but excelled?

What do you mean "comes back"? He was there for mandatory mini-camp. He'll be there for training camp. He only missed "voluntary" OTA's because he was training with a route running and speed expert. Numerous veteran players train on their own during OTA's. Everything I've heard from players concerning his suspension is that he got a raw deal and they feel sorry for him and support him 100%. And players are always supportive of other players concerning contracts. Besides, there hasn't been anything negative concerning his contract anyway.

Comes back from suspension. Again, it’s just a feeling. He may come back as a team leader and turn the season around. I have no real evidence what. Said will happen. Just a feeling is all.

I'd definately keep MI. He's gonna run hard to show he has lots of gas in those legs, so when he hits the free market he'll have some leverage. He'll help get that 2nd ring!!

No trade at this point. Contract year. He'll run like a horse. Don't need to bring him up to speed on anything but contact. He'll have his best year per game.

Ingram knows the offense, Drew is comfortable throwing him the ball, he’s gotten very good in pass protection, and he averaged 4.9 ypc last season. I get being ticked at him but I don’t see how trading him makes the team better.

Everyone can thank me when we win the SB without him and, end up crawling our way back into RND1 with picks bundled from the trade.

We are going full dynasty mode. Get onboard because the train is going to leave without you and MI.

I'm still trying to figure out why the hell anyone would want to trade him....he's been spectacular the last 2 years. The guy can't catch a break from the fans.
