Trade LJ to N.E?

[CoMoChief]

There aren't many teams ....if any that would give us a 2nd rd pick for LJ.

NE for sure isn't one of them. They run a spread type offense which req the RB to block........not exactly LJ's strongest ability.

[the Talking Can]

no one is giving a 2nd for LJ

no one

In addition to LJ's off the field problems and current lack of production he's also tethered to a huge contract.

And the Pat's unlike the Chiefs, like to use their cap room. And I don't see them investing a chunk of cap room in LJ and limiting themselves in other areas.

I think the pats like to take teams draft picks and draft stars with them... not throw away picks on teams ex stars.

They "threw away" draft picks for Randy Moss and Corey Dillon.

Moss isn't exactly washed up and hes not a RB nearing the deadly age of 30. Dillon was a RB on a team that already had another good RB and the Patriots hadn't drafted Laurence Maroney in the first yet either.

Dillon was Thirty (30) when he was traded for.

They also flipped Deion Branch for a 1st rounder.

i.e.:See Randy Moss and Corey Dillon?

I think I'm going to have to ignore this thread, because I keep hurting myself from laughing every time I see the title.

We out, out, out!

[ottawa_chiefs_fan]

We will get nothing for LJ - at best, he will retire and leave us intact.

Excellent story in ESPN Magazine. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?id=3694547

KC has Jamaal Charles and Kolby Smith

NE has been known to take chances on players (i.e. Randy Moss, Rodney Harrison, Corey Dillon)

KC is young and rebuilding so draft picks are very valuable

NE has San Diego's 2nd round pick in 2009

Laurence Maroney has not been able to carry the load for a whole season and would benefit from a joint backfield like in college (Marion Barber)

Awwww yeeeah; this shit was on my other board too. Same topic, same response;

The old LJ would've taken that run all the way in, he's lost some burst after that 400 carry season but Mcgee is damn fast

LJ would never have run that ball in. I'm actually surprised he got as far as he did. Seemed to put on a burst to get away from defenders at first. He just got caught by a FAST guy.
