Trade deadline

[Sonichound16]

With the trade deadline coming up does it make sense to try and get a #2 WR in here so that we aren't so reliant on JSN? There are a number of good options out there that could really help out the offense. Olave, Ridley, Myers, etc...

I think the plan is utilize AJ Barner and Arroyo more.

Seattle has two young tight ends that should continually improve and can help shoulder the load of catching passes.

JSN's value may never be higher.



(Please, someone take this post seriously.)

Just upgrade from Bradford. Cesar Ruiz from New Orleans has been mentioned as one possibility. Everything else after that is gravy.

I think we only get Cesar Ruiz from NO. He played under Benton and Kubiak last year, had his best season and Benton especially has raved about him. He's only 26 too.

I don't think we need another WR. There's not enough volume for it. Just get Kupp, Horton, Arroyo, Barner and the RB's involved a little more. I don't think Darnold is targeting JSN. I just think he is mostly his 1st read and he's been that good that he's been open most of the time.

I agree with this; not to mention the occasional catch from Young as well. I think we got enough receiving threats at this time, worry about other positions of greater need.

Why would they need a guard?

I don't believe they should trade JSN. There is a valid argument to be made regarding his value. Right now he does have a very high value as he is an elite (top 5) reciever. When the Seahawks won SB48, they didn't have an elite WR on the team. They did have very good to solid receivers.

I'd like to see them improve the OL somehow. They are strong on the DL edge - they have some tradeable pieces there if they choose to do so. I believe they need an upgrade at center and right guard. If they can't find a RG then look for RT and can slide Lucas inside to RG. If they can upgrade that and the running game. It makes the weapons they do have on the team that much more dangerous.

You just don't comprehend well do you?

I just asked you a question? I want to hear it.

 

[Wsumatt1982]

You and I both know that’s not what you did.

They may look for a path for an upgrade. Now let’s hear what you have to say

That's what I am asking. You went on a rant saying that fans don't know shit and the team knows better and that Bradford has only had a few bad plays. So I am honestly asking you, if you feel that way, then why would you be choosing that position to upgrade at the deadline.

Why would the Saints trade their 26 year old starting OG?

Again, you must not comprehend well since I also said do I think we can upgrade? Yes. I am not a spokesperson for the team so no need to assume I am one. I am not.

Around the 35:40 mark, Corbin Smith explains why.

Yeah. I heard the rumors. That commnet was for Wsumatt1982. I was surprised he made a suggestion like that because of all his comments lately when anybody else made a trade suggestion.

I comprehend just fine.

Because they suck?

Feel free to show me where I have stated I don't think they can't use an upgrade at RG? I'll wait.

There's about two positions on the whole roster who can't use an upgrade (Leonard Williams and JSN right now) While most positions are fine they can always use an upgrade regardless how plausible that is.

If Bradford is as bad as everyone here says he is? I am putting words in people's mouths yes, but he is portrayed as the worst in the league, surely anyone can come in and do better, why hasn't the team done anything about it by now? Backups aren't playing. No one brought n, haven't even heard them bringing in people to look at let alone sign any? No trades made by now? Wonder why that is if he is as bad as everyone suggests he is surely someone can replace him?

 

[Shane Falco]

Because they suck?

Exactly. That's why Simpson from the Jets or the two guys from the Browns or any other guy from a shitty team gets suggested.
