Rocky trade is a possibility

So, what exactly do you expect from a 2nd round draft pick? Obviously you don't think a 4th or later round draft pick will best him.

Might or might not, but when you make that draft pick, it comes with 4+ cheap years, and when you trade for Rocky, you get one. Which is the reason that if we shopped Rocky to all 31 teams, 27 would say they aren't interested in him at any price.

With the remaining 4 teams, it's all about deciding if the price they are going to give you is worth not having Rocky on the roster for this year. If the best offer you get is a seventh rounder...maybe you don't do that. Maybe you do. We will see.

I'm guessing he's a 5th round value, at best.

I'd like to work out a deal with the Raiders for Kirk Morrison and Thomas Howard. Apparently both are on the trading block.

If they'd take Rocky in return, that is a good idea. I always wanted us to have Thomas Howard anyway.

I agree 100%. The Raiders want to move 1 or both LBs, make an even swap.
Either 1 is an upgrade.

In my opinion, this draft is strong in the top 110-120 players. After that, it's scraps; special teamers and long term projects. It's not worth trading any of our guys at a discount unless they could get into the top half of the 4th round or better, not likely.

Haynesworth is the only one, and they won't get fair value him either.
Trade players for players, no one is giving up quality picks.
