Yeah he is but they still got a second rounder 2010 for him

Re: Bucs trade DE Gaines Adams to Bears
 

If the Bears were willing to send a 2nd rd pick for Gaines we should get more than that for C.Rogers < maybe 2nd & 5th > , or sign him to a deal to keep him .

He wasn't against us, he had a great game.

I don't know if you can trade a player like Rogers for a high draft pick when you know he will be a FA next year and are not guaranteed to resign him if you trade for him.

Didn't we dangle Carlos for a second a couple of times to no avail? I seem to remember that.

True , but maybe we get AL Davis to believe CR runs a 4.3 40/yd :)

[quote=Beemnseven;609751]I posed this question in another thread: If you accept that Chris Cooley is the only player on our roster that another team would want, and if we could get a first round pick for him to rebuild our O-line, would you trade him?[/quote]

No way.. Cooley is our ONLY reliable weapon.. If we have other weapons, then I probably would consider it.. But we don't, and our offense would only get worse without him..

I agree. Cooley is our best offensive player by far. Team player, hard worker. He's a baller and we need more Cooleys on this team not less.

A #2 for someone who's been a bust so far? That's a win for the Bucs.

Re: Bucs trade DE Gaines Adams to Bears
 

the bears are just giving away all their draft picks...

Re: Bucs trade DE Gaines Adams to Bears
 

I think it's a smart move for the Bears...Adams is gonna do well for them, just watch.

Re: Bucs trade DE Gaines Adams to Bears
 

Would you call Adams a bust though? Isn't he pretty much in the same boat as Landry at this point?

If you could trade Landry to the Seahawks tomorrow for a second rounder, would you do it?

No way. Landry has not been a bust. Adams w/out question has been.

NO! Landry has been far from a bust. His contribution is often unoticed, but remember 2006? That was the year it seemed everybody could go deep on us. Once Landry was added it is rare they're beat deep. He can cover a lot of ground in the secondary & makes a lot of wr's think about catching it, like yesterday when Bowe heard his footsteps a couple of times.

When close to the line Landry also plays tough. He just needs to work on basic fundamental tackling.

As for trading him, if someone offered up the right deal I think he's tradable. I bet Blache would not be happy w/that though.

Landry hasn't shown me much up to this point, but I'd like to see what a competent coaching staff could do with him.
