I Even Bleed Red Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) I know I'm asking to be flamed, so bring it on. But gimme a reasonable response.Roddy White is my favorite player and he's a Falcon for life. Forever. I know we just gave him a contract extension; he deserved every penny, and trust me, I was really happy about it. We all know we need a dominant pass-rusher to have a legit SB contending team. KC is not giving up Houston for only a 2nd rounder, otherwise TD woulda been all over it. IF Houston agreed to a 2nd round draft pick + Roddy White for Justin Houston, would you consider it??We just showed that we're pretty deep at WR and Julio is our #1 option. We lost Roddy for tonight and it didn't matter. It's hard to not argue that our overall team would benefit more from gaining Houston than staying with Roddy.I understand that emotionally we all want Roddy here (and so do I!) but can you gimme a reasonable answer as to why you wouldn't even consider this if it was possible?

xskyx Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Well, you called it in the title..Stupid trade idea is stupid.:S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndySG Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Nope. Roddy has far more value to us than anybody else. He's a leader. He's one of the guys. Roddy White has been a falcon since the second his name was called and should be one until the day he dies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Return of the Gaucho Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 No. Roddy should retire a Falcon. Despite how well the team did tonight, they are still better with him. Houston would be great, but A) I don't think the Chiefs would make the trade, even with Houston potentially leaving in the offseason, and B ) Roddy deserves to retire here.

Borat Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) New contracts are also pretty untradeable, dead money-wise. Edited September 19, 2014 by Borat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert_Falcon Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Smh. Depending on how we look going into the 5/6 game I'm sure TD will start to consider that 1rd trade idea though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndySG Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I also called for not pointing out the obvious. Gimme a more thoughtful answer, please.Roddy is the second best receiver on this team and, more importantly, a leader. The locker room looks up to him and he's a great personality to have around. He has his fun, but he is all business on the field. Morale would suffer immensely if we traded him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kane#7 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Starting a "Trade Roddy" thread should be a ban able offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEIST Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Harry and Devin are best as #3 options... We won't be playing the Bucs every weekThe Chiefs have no reason to trade their young talented linebacker for an aging WR with nagging injuries. They are not in win now mode. The trade makes no sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Even Bleed Red Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 Starting a "Trade Roddy" thread should be a ban able offense.I'm with you on it, bro. Trust me. Still I want a reasonable rebuttal. If you don't look at it emotionally, we're deep at WR, he's over 30. How could (IF possible) gaining a young passrusher be a bad idea? Ever. Let alone on this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattbob_Icepants Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Because building a Team is not the same as simply accumulating talent. Roddy has a lot of value, not just emotionally. We need him on this team. We'd be trading away a lot of passion AND production, so the answer is **** no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truth B Told (TRU) Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 We was playing a team that just lost to 2 backup QBs prior to us playing them. Every team won't be that easy. We need Roddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
