Woolen on the trading block?

[ivotuk]

Wow! Hawkblogger just said exactly what I said in my thread days ago about trading some combination of Woolen/picks/Haynes to a team for an older proven vet G, and they even mentioned one of the guys I targeted, Joel Bitonio. So I guess my thinking wasn't so crazy after all. I had Teller on my short list, too, I just didn't put it in my post.

Bitonio...a guy we passed over... Thanks Pete..

Wow, Through four games this season, Woolen ranks 99th out of 100 cornerbacks in Pro Football Focus grading.

Hard for me to believe that anyone would be interested in trading for Woolen. He should get a pink slip this morning. Along with Anthony Bradford. These are the best available???

 

[SoulfishHawk]

I'd be amazed if we got a bag of chips for him.

Yeah, wouldn't be Tim's Cascade. Probably some Lays that are past expiration date.

Nobody is that dumb. “Yeah, let’s go trade for the 99th rated cb (out of 100)”. Better off to just watch the waiver wire and pick him up when he gets cut. He is a straight up liability.

If you actually look at the numbers, he's not as bad as some would think. But the costly penalties, and receptions allowed during critical times due to lazy technique is inexcusable.

He does not play Macdonald style ball, with the tenacity and fire of say Jobe. Who hasn't been playing perfect ball either, but at least he'll make a play on the ball, and he'll come up and make a tackle.

For those reasons I'd take him over Woolen as our starter. And let's please give that Kendricks kid some more snaps, see what he can do.

This is the NFL; it absolutely is a possibility.

Pete always thinks he can fix guys. Always.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep. Mr. 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th chances. And that's ok.

See: Jamal Adams.

 

[FrodosFinger]

Package a deal with Reek and Bradford to the Raiders for their right guard lol

 

[Trackhawk]

Pete always thinks he can fix guys. Always.

Especially HIS guys.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep. He drafted Woolen. He knows his physical skills. It's not out of the question that he would think he can fix this dude and get him locked in.

Honestly that would be woolens best bet and outcome. Otherwise his trajectory would land him imo OUT of the nfl

What teams need CBs? Even questionable ones? I’d like to see a list of potential suitors and peruse their rosters to see what my be available.

Seems like Dallas could use a CB...

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep. There are more than a couple teams that have VERY bad secondary play.

 

[Hawknight]

What would be hope to get for in a trade for Woolen? Thoughts?

 

[SoulfishHawk]

5th round pick seems realistic. Though, I'd settle for a 7th and a reach around

Giving or taking?

Yeah he’s pretty terrible. When teams that know us need a big play or a 50/50 ball with a possible DPI gift they go after Riq. Shanny knows this well.
