Posted October 21 If he is traded, I think we will be very surprised as to what he nets. Teams trading mid season tend to be more desperate than you think. JDaveG, papachaz, roguebeaver and 1 other like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just depends on the demand. Only way we see solid return on any of these players is if there is significant interest in multiple teams. We suck. Teams know we suck. You only win trades while operating from positions of power, of which we have none. It's not like any of these guys, outside of like Grady, are flashing on a terrible defense. They are all terrible.

Posted October 21 Raiders just got an extra 2020 3rd round pick, so maybe they’d be more apt to part with their 3rd round pick, or maybe even a 2nd. I’d take either of those deals in a heart beat. Refried Beans likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bottom line is this isn't MLB. We aren't going to get this collection of picks/young players in return for our rejects. Teams are going to look to float the lowest picks possible for our guys. I feel like people equate draft position to trade value and it just doesn't correlate. Chaz likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 21 So unless I missed something where does it say the Raiders are interested in Vic Beasley? I mean we all agree he's not that great. Why would a team want to trade for a pass rusher that doesn't produce pressures or get sacks? You can't sell something when no one is buying. I could see the Falcons getting something for McKinnley rather than Beasley. If you thought to yourself 'No don't trade McKinnley because....' That's why teams won't want Beasley. vitaman likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are all terrible. You win these kinds of trades depending on how well you draft when the pick comes due. Demand doesn't really matter, because teams looking to trade right now think they are that one player away from winning it all. They are desperate. As for the sucking thing, they don't care about that. They see that one player that can save them. Vic will probably do well in the right system, he has before. athell likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 21 I traded VB44 and Campbell to the raiders in Madden, then the next season DQ got hired as the Raiders coach and they demolished me 40-8 with those players having 2 sacks and 2 ints respectively...

I agree with you, just saying that I am already seeing posts about 2nd rounders...so when we inevitably net a 5th rounder for Vic people are going to lose their crap here.
