They want to trade half the roster to get draft picks. What are draft picks? They are college students. Get real boys.
Rocky M is NOT an all pro but he is a good linebacker. Not great. Good. Not gonna get that with a 4th or 5th round pick. Just a special teams player.

Albert is the best defensive tackle in the universe and if he comes into camp motivated to show everybody that they are wrong, then look out.

Landy is a solid strong safety. Its not his fault that an idiot played him out of position all last year. Heck, if you played Santana Moss at linebacker, I guess after 1 game you would want to cut him. Not there fault we had idiots for coaches last year. Orakpo covering receivers...Landry covering instead of tackling...and Fred Davis sitting on the bench for the first half of the year instead of using 2 tight end formations. Not there fault we had idiot coaches.

Landry has the speed to cover- he's one of the fastest safties in football. He just sucks in coverage. And when he has a chance to tackle he goes for the blow up hit and often wiffs, rather than just making a sure wrap up. He drives me nuts. Probably my least favorite player on the team. But he has so much raw talent, he could be very good. Just needs some discipline and coaching.

That said, I'd probably rather just trade Campbell and hang on to the rest of the guys (regardless of how much I dislike LL, AH, and Rogers). Trading any of those three would be a big net loss on our part based on what it took to get them here. We need to stockpile some players- particularly LBs and offensive lineman, but I'd rather go about getting extra multiple draft picks by leveraging that 4th overall pick.

Just to throw it out there- I feel like nobody has said a peep about Cooley being traded for a while. I wouldn't be surprised to see him traded on draft day (possibly Friday if we can get a 2nd rounder for him).
