Chiefs Let's Take A Vote: The Trade Deadline Approaches - Page 3

CaliforniaChief · 10-28-2013, 04:47 PM

We're less than 24 hours away from the trade deadline in the NFL. Props to the league for pushing the deadline back, adding more teams to the mix that are either giving up or making a push. These probably aren't realistic, but I'll put options out there. I'm not saying these are viable, just what's thrown out there. And I'm not putting Jordan Cameron on here. You choose which option you prefer:

Poll Forthcoming.

-Blackmon for a 1st.
-Blackmon for a 3rd and a 2015 conditional pick.
-Gordon for a 1st.
-Gordon for a 3rd and a 2015 conditional pick.
-Gonzalez for a 5th or later.
-Fred Davis for a 6th.
-Other
-Don't do anything. Let our coaches develop the guys we have and go with the guys that got us here.
-Gaz for a Lifetime Mod Membership on the Mange.

Why are some people opting to give up a 1st round pick for someone when they could give up a 3rd round and a conditional pick?

That's true on the R1 pick on a QB. Plus Bray is possible QBOTF, so I'll stick with that for now.

I will say this, I would have no problem with either Gordon or Blackmon, one or the other for a first.

But I would like some picks in return, as you mentioned, quality OL in the later rounds, because I just get the feeling that KC is going to need to find another RT a lot sooner than they wished for....

I'm guessing because those people believe a R3 and a conditional is unrealistic.

Cleveland is reported to want at least a R2 pick. Not sure why anyone would think our R3 pick in the mid-late 80's is enough to get a deal done.

Seeing as though I think either of those wrs are better than what we could get in said pick slot, yea.

I'd give one of our 6th's for Wade Smith and stick Allen on the bench the rest of the season.

Wade Smith was a big under the radar loss for us a few years ago

O.city · 10-28-2013, 06:00 PM

Gordon is a significant upgrade at wr for the next 10 years who could give you a top 5 player at his position.

Yeah, I'd do it

swayy07 · 10-28-2013, 06:13 PM

a 3rd and a conditional 4th or 5th for Gordon.....hell yes, then a 6th for Tony id JIMP, but realistically its gonna take our 1st for Gordon.

**Easy 6** · 10-28-2013, 06:18 PM

Gordon, **** decrepit Gonzalez fools gold.

Gonna take a lot more than a 3rd and conditional to land a legit #1 with a cheap contact through '15.

**Easy 6** · 10-28-2013, 06:22 PM

Furthermore, its just a terrible slap in the face of Cleveland fans to be trying to trade away their singular biggest threat.

That team will just never get it right, always making the wrong call... heres a guy who can really spark your offense and make some slapdick QB look decent... whats the answer? trade him.

**DeezNutz** · 10-28-2013, 06:23 PM

I think I'd prefer Blackmon, too, but I'd gladly give a first for Gordon, as well.

Redskins are aggressively shopping Fred Davis

With the trade deadline less than a day away, the Redskins are trying hard to make a deal.

Per a league source, Washington hopes to trade tight end Fred Davis.

The 2012 franchise-tag recipient tore an Achilles tendon last season. He returned under a one-year, $1 million contract, and the Redskins have phased him out of their plans, given the performances of Jordan Reed and Logan Paulsen.

The Redskins, according to the source, are aggressively shopping Davis. If a deal can’t be worked out, there’s a chance Davis will be cut.

If he’s cut after the trade deadline, Davis will be subject to waivers.

Interesting. If he gets cut, assuming he doesn't get traded, is KC first on the waiver wire, based of their record from last year? Or does the rules change during the regular season? (I admit, I forget.)
