Astrobot Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 The Eagles own two first round selections in the 2009 Draft, including four (1st-21, 1st-28, 2nd-53, 3rd-85,) of the first eighty-five picks in the draft. What would it take for you to trade Peters? I would need two firsts and a 3rd, and here's my draft: 11-Brian Cushing OLB 21-Alex Mack OC or Max Unger OG 28-Eben Britton OT 42-Robert Ayers DE 75-James Casey TE 85-Fenuki Tupou OG 106-Kraig Urbik OG 139-Vance Walker DT 170-Ian Campbell DE 202-Gartrell Johnson RB
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 If I'm GM, it would take both their 1st rounders this year, as well as their 1st round picks in 2010, 2011, and 2012. Basically, Peters is not on the market.
Alphadawg7 Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Better question... What would it take to not have another thread on "What would you trade Peters for?"
Magox Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 If I knew that there was no way that Peters would sign the contract we are offering and that he would hold out, then I'd accept their 2 1st round picks. I would pick #11 Pettigrew #21 English #28 Ebbon Britton #42 Duke Robinson
Astrobot Posted March 12, 2009 Author Posted March 12, 2009 Are you trading our first with Peters? Fixed. Thanks, Jesus. 11-Brian Cushing OLB 21-Alex Mack OC or Max Unger OG 28-Eben Britton OT 42-Robert Ayers DE 75-James Casey TE 85-Fenuki Tupou OG 106-Kraig Urbik OG 139-Vance Walker DT 170-Ian Campbell DE 202-Gartrell Johnson RB
bills_red Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 2 1st round picks this year and a 3rd next and we will have a deal.
todd Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 It would take more than draft picks. Buffalo needs to perform this year, and any rookie is a liability. Two 1st round picks is more expensive than signing Peters to an extended contract, not to mention the cost of replacing him. I think it would be a totally stupid move to trade him, and too expensive and risky to be worth it. Especially considering the spot next to him is empty as well. Why don't people see this? This is all I'd take: 2 1st rounders this year Brodrick Bunkley Omar Gaither Nothing less.

Last years #21 Sam Baker-LT-Signed a five-year, $13 million #28 Lawrence Jackson-DE-Signed a five-year, $11.25 million so 10 years 24.25 million/2.425 per year
todd Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 no, they are late 1st so they woun't cost that much. Okay, so you aren't dim enough to expect a draft pick to produce like an experienced player in their 1st year, right? Not only that, you do realize that any draft pick is a risk and liability, right? You do realize that we'd basically have ZERO confidence on our QB's blind side, right? Trading peters is an idea for the bored or stupid.

Trading peters is an idea for the bored or stupid. Sure sine Clady (last year 12th pick) gave up I think 2.5 sacks on a team that throws a lot. okay we can't get a good LT at 11, okay. Jason Smith, Eugene Monroe or Michael Oher will be there at 11. Heck Eben Britton or William Beatty at 28 would be fine by me.
StupidNation Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 I'll take their 2 1st rounders, and their 2nd next year. Done deal.

I don't expect any of Jason Smith, Eugene Monroe or Michael Oher to be there at 11, but we'll see.
DrDawkinstein Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 it depends on what we have offered him as far as a new contract goes. if we're already at our limit and P/P arent playing nice still, then i'd ship him for 2 1sts and a 3rd. mind you, i dont WANT to trade him and think it would be dumb, but if we arent going to get him signed now, we never will. if he doesnt get into camp on time this year and performs at the same level as last year, he needs to be benched by week 8. i liked Jason Peters as a TE in college. I was surprised no one drafted him and was elated when we picked him up. I loved watching him make a career for himself, first on special teams (blocking that punt in the Bengals game), then at RT. I was happy for him when we re-signed him and gave him a hefty raise, especially for a project-player. All of that is probably what makes his recent attitude so hard to swallow. He is looking more and more like Mike Williams everyday. My fear now is that if/when he ever does get his big contract, that'll be the end of any effort. Again, I dont want to trade him, I think it's a dumb move. But if the FO thinks that's the best way to handle him... then so be it.
spartacus Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 no, they are late 1st so they woun't cost that much.Last years #21 Sam Baker-LT-Signed a five-year, $13 million #28 Lawrence Jackson-DE-Signed a five-year, $11.25 million so 10 years 24.25 million/2.425 per year late 1st round picks turn into crap shoot players - like McCargo especially when the pcks are made by our crackerjack talent evaluators they lucked into a Pro Bowl LT (after cutting him) --just extend the guy
bills1960 Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I wouldn't trade him for a draft pick. He's a proven por bowl player. If he is to be traded, trade him for a proven DE or LB. You never know what ur getting with draft picks.
