I'm well aware of the fact that he's not a free agent. That said, he would have to accept a trade to come here, which I sincerely doubt he would. He would probably prefer to retire than come here.

I don't think you know what a trade is...

I wonder what the Seahawks price would be? He's a perfect fit in this defense but I have no clue what the asking price would be.

 

what about a 2nd? that might get it done. Although with so many good young secondary players in the draft, it may be hard to justify. Trade MD? Draft a DL if one falls to you (as did to me below).

yeah this is the issue i'm having. Would love to have him, but the opportunity cost may be too high. I think a team like the Steelers who have a short contender window could make a trade for him.

You have to think WHY Hawks are looking to trade him. Isn't he supposed to be a cornerstone of their secondary? Has he become a problem in that tight-knit locker room? You have to remember why Harvin got sent away. I would not be interested. Besides isn't McD's D supposed to de-emphasize the secondary?

They are not looking to trade them. The report is that they are open to it if they got a "fair" offer. With his accolades, "fair" is going to be expensive. As previously mentioned in this thread, this is likely the case for 95% of players in the league. You throw a boatload of picks at just about anyone and you'll get a bite here and there.

 

Sherman can take away a third of the field on his own. There are years of film and stats out there that emphasize this point. I think every coach in the league would be happy to incorporate that into their scheme.

I would trade this years 2nd and a 5th next year. I wouldn't trade pick 10. Sherman is a good still relatively young player on a reasonable contract for his skills and he fits the scheme. A high 2nd rounder and then a mid round pick next year is a decent amount to give up but I think Sherman and Darby is a great 1-2 combo to have on the outside.

It'd be cheaper too after his latest injury. Wasn't there doubt he would even come back to football?

I like this idea.

You might be thinking of Earl Thomas.

Sherman would jump at the chace of getting traded to a

team shooting for maybe 7-9 this season.

A player like him would think he could take the team to the playoffs by himself.

I'm pretty sure every player in the league would be available for the right price, save maybe a handful of real young QBs. The nfl overvalues draft picks in such a disgusting way, that you could probably get any player in the league for 2 firsts and 2 seconds. Outside of Winston, Luck and maybe Carr I bet everyone is "available"

You'd never get Brady, Rodgers or Russell Wilson either

a proven 4X pro bowl 28 year old corner for 2 years at $11/yr

 

or

 

roll the dice at #10 on a rookie CB for 4-5 years at $4-5 mil/yr ??

 

 

seeing as #1 CB is the current biggest need on this team.....I would do this deal.
