Hypothetical.....Would You Trade Green

NaptownChief · 09-18-2006, 03:20 PM

Under the following assumptions:

Chiefs come out and lose in week 4 to the 9ers and go 0-3. That would leave them having to go at least 10-3 to 11-2 in their final 16 games to make the playoffs(virtually impossible).

Trent Green is medically cleared to play and wants to play.

Daniel Snyder comes in willing to give up at least a 2nd rounder possibly a 1st rounder for Green to go to Washington and run Saunders offense.

siberian khatru · 09-18-2006, 03:22 PM

Absolutely. If our starting OTs mean we can only run 30% of our offense, might as well let Huard do it.

StcChief · 09-18-2006, 03:22 PM

Nope. not going into rebuild mode yet.

siberian khatru · 09-18-2006, 03:23 PM

Also, I think we should trade Tamba Hali for anything we can get. He's clearly a bust. Time to cut our losses.

It would depend on how many more years Green wanted to play. If this was his last season, yes. If he thought he wanted to play at least one more, probably not. Being without a viable solution a QB for one season is one thing, being in that situation for 2 years is another, especially when you have the option of someone like Trent Green.

Do you think it is crazy to give up Green for a top pick or do you think it is crazy to think that the Skins would give up a top pick for a old QB?

PastorMikH · 09-18-2006, 03:27 PM

No.

1. Green is a bit older, but is still a lower-mileage QB with several years left
2. Green is one of the best QBs in the game today. Given our past ability on 1st and 2nd round picks, we're better off keeping Green than drafting a bust.
3. Croyle MIGHT make a QB in the NFL, right now he's unproven.

thats a rebuilding strategy..hypothetically..do you think the chiefs are really that bad???

kc rush · 09-18-2006, 03:32 PM

For a first rounder yes.

We need to get young talent on offense. If we can get an extra first round pick and have another draft like we did this year, it would go a long way.

JBucc · 09-18-2006, 03:33 PM

Yes for a first rounder

kc1977 · 09-18-2006, 03:37 PM

What a ridiculous poll, including jaded options that only serve your outcome. If you are going to post a poll, make it fair.

There is no indication that Green doesn't want to play another 2-3 years.

There is no indication that Brodie Croyle will ever amount to a hill of beans.

Carl Peterson has many faults, but I have to agree that unless you are able to draft the top 5 pick QB, you start the veteran QB and you also don't use pre-6th round draft picks on QBs (unless of course, it is a top 5). Having a first-day pick on the bench only brings out the whackos who give up on a season after an 0-2 start. Hell, even Gunther's teams rebounded from an 0-1 start one year to start 5-2 and an 0-2 start the next year to start 5-3.

Doomsdayers. This season is very much still alive. That being said, no, no trade for Trent. Especially given how we draft.
