NFL Live: Dre Bly Rumors
Just saw yet another London Fletcher is as good as signed report on NFL Live but the additional comments were more interesting. Smith stated that we are going to make a trade with the Lions for Dre Bly.
Here's the question, who do we trade. My guess would be Arch, giving him a chance to get back with Mike Martz. Any thoughts fellas?

Re: NFL Live
I like Bly, but I haven't heard rumors of him coming here (not lately)

But more importantly, if we are going to get back to the playoffs this year or the next, we need to preserve our continuity. We can't go out every offseason and add 4 or 5 FA's that are pricey at the cost of some of our veteran players. This changes the locker room dynamic and if u have noticed the skins have typically been better in the second half of the season for the past 5 years or so, b/c it takes time for these new players to gel into the system. The best teams in the league, even after having mediocre seasons, keep their core of players and make a few conservative changes. dropping all 3 of those players u mentioned is very very risky because u have team leaders and personalities that u are just yanking out of the mix and completely overhauling the roster. im all in favor of getting better but we need do it in a calculated manner that provides for long term success.

Re: NFL Live: Dre Bly Rumors
Tatum Bell? I'll bet Kevin Jones is super excited to hear that!

Re: NFL Live: Dre Bly Rumors
I think Jones isn't going to be ready for the regular season, so they'll be looking at Bell for the majority of the year, I think. When/if Jones gets back, it should be nice to be able to split carries, even though they're basically the same back. Jones is a little more physical, but not much. I don't like this deal if I'm the Lions.

Re: NFL Live: Dre Bly Rumors
What kind of role is George Foster going to play? Surely not as a player...

Re: NFL Live
I doubt Arch has ANY trade value right now and it'd be a cap killer to deal him. We don't have the picks to trade to get Bly (unless they want a 5th rounder) and the only player commodity we have is Betts who I don't see us dealing.. I call BS on this rumor.

Re: NFL Live
What do we trade? Knowing us - the 6th pick, our 5th rounder, and Betts for Bly.
Actually, thinking about it. If they do pull the trigger on this one, probably Betts and a late rounder for Bly (not saying it's a good trade, just saying it might be possible).
