No but trading Laron and Rocky would be. It would help the salary cap and the team. Unless we just keep Rocky to just rush the QB on 3rd down if we have the luxury.
Both contracts are up at end of season so trade possibility, like most trade scenarios in this league, is not happening. We are not bring back Rocky, hes horrible. Laron is a solid player, hopefully he will be back under a reasonable contract, because I expect a lot of spending on the offensive side if ball in the offseason.

I sure hope they get some OL. Barrett Jones from Alabama would be a great draft pick to get one of those lineman that we can't get in FA. We need 4 with the ones we got other than Trent as solid backups. Not sold on Laron. Better trade value than ballplayer so far. It would be nice to see him play much better.

Dirty 30 is a guy that I wish I could like more. I know he is coming off an injury & he was playing lights out last year beforehand. But the 2nd half TD incident w/London in his face sunday really made me think about his overall approach to the game. Something's been wrong w/this defense the last couple weeks, I wonder if he's part of the problem.
He is great at making big hits, but if you watch him take on blockers he usually takes himself out of the play. His coverage issues have been talked about by us quite a bit.
Is Laron our present day Lavar? A big hitter but undisciplined? Is he a Shanahan guy? I'm actually wondering if the staff feels he's worth investing in beyond his current deal.
At least Lavar made 3 pro bowls and made some plays to help us win. What exactly has Laron done in the regard. He has some moments like in the Green Bay game last year where you think that he is a pro bowl elite player and then he does things like celebrating and after an offensive player makes a first down. He doesn't seem to get it. Lavar at least had produced.
