Re: Poll: Pick a knucklehead
 

Jeez, this is tough. I think you would go with Marshall since, at the moment, he can step on the field (Plaxico has a couple of legal hurdles and needs the commissioner's blessing). As far as who is tougher to cover, that is a tough call. When Plax is focused, there is no one in the NFL who can cover him. I am just glad that he is out of New York. He abuses us every year.

However, this isn't an ideal situation. They are both complete idiots. I didn't mention Vick because our coaching staff doesn't seem like they want to expand the playbook to the point where Vick could actually help us.

Re: Poll: Pick a knucklehead
 

Marshall. You can make an argument for him　being the best WR in football, or at least the guy who now has the most upside. He definitely is a moron though. Any team that trades for him will have to ban McDonalds bags, because he might slip on one and fall through a plate glass window or something.

Re: Poll: Pick a knucklehead
 

Talking from a pure talent perspective I would take Marshall.

Re: Poll: Pick a knucklehead
 

I can't believe so many people actually picked Plax over Marshall. IMO, Marshall is simply a far better player. They both have had their off field issues.

Plus Marshall is young & on the cusp of, as someone said, maybe being the best in the nfl. Dude runs w/the ball far better than Plax & is consistent game to game.

WE have a trade history w/Denver. I'm not saying we should try & get him, but watch out for Danny!

Kinda piggy backing on this thread, but, what would everyone be willing to give up in trade for Marshall?
Denver would certainly want a high price tag to pull the trigger on any deal. And could we afford him?(silly question the way the FO massages the cap, but he would still be high priced I would think)

knew this had to be coming!

IF Danny is dead set on trading for him, I would think they could package Thomas or Kelly & a pick. Denver would ask for at least a 2nd.

If Minnesota gets Farve, or maybe even if they don't, I would think they might make a play for Marshall. Sure hope none of the other nfc east teams gets involved!

Thomas, Kelly, and a second for Marshall? In a heartbeat. However, as a member of the reality based community I would consider such a move unlikely.

Re: Poll: Pick a knucklehead
 

I definitely would not entertain a trade for Marshall. We drafted two guys last year and we're still not sure what we have in those two. Who knows, we could have our own Marshall right under our noses.

Re: Poll: Pick a knucklehead
 

Marshall hands down. Back to back 100+ catch seasons. But to be honest I'd have a hard time rooting for a guy who beats women.

I've been saying all offseason that I think Thomas can be a Marshall clone in terms of production.

That being said, an offer of Thomas and a 2nd may be enough to entice Denver. I'm not advocating it, just saying it'd be feasible for us to make that deal.

Re: Poll: Pick a knucklehead
 

[quote=GusFrerotte;563004]DB, Vick was one of the most athletic guys in the NFL, but was too inconsistent as a passer to want him on our squad. JC is a better passer than Vick hands down. If we had a real "Posse" for JC he would be hitting the 3,000-3,500 yards passing range every season. Not sure if we could do that with Vick.[/quote]
Funny everytime someone mentions JC's stats it always followed with an "if". If he had a line, If he had better WR's, If the coach would let him take more chances, "if" he had more time in the system. When will he use up all his "if's".

Re: Poll: Pick a knucklehead
 

Let's not go down the JC/Vick/QB road yet again.

The only one that has not or is not likely to serve a prison sentence any time soon...I guess.

I was not really advocating it, but I was curious what everyone thought. My curiosity was peaked because we have made it this far without trading any of our top picks next year, and this suddenly pops up. Now does the FO think about making a trade?

Having said that, we were not really in the market for any other big name receiver that was out there, so I doubt we will be looking that way now.

(I am sure that Marshall would have a career year under SH's tutelage though!!)

Re: Poll: Pick a knucklehead
 

Marshall and Plaxico are equals in my eyes in turns of ability, but Marshall will actually play this year.

Though if choosing between trading for Marshall or signing Plaxico, I'd take signing Plaxico. I'd rather take a year of an older guy sitting on the bench than trade away a bunch of picks for the younger and more talented Brandon Marshall. I prefer to keep the picks.

Vick isn't even an option for the vet min, IMO. The Redskins have enough activists coming after them (Native Americans), we don't need PETA piling on.
