jgentry162 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 . I wish the NFL would come up with a system were you could trade picks for cap room. I know you build off the draft. But why should a team have to let a star that they coached up walk, to take a chance on a highly-rated rookie that they have no idea about how he will play or be a team player in their NFL. It would be great if a team could say trade there draft pick to pick up extra cap cash depending which pick it was. like if you have the top pick and your QB got hurt the year before and you got a higher pick than your team talent and you it's time to resign that QB you could trade/drop that pick for cap cash to be able to to do it. Just a thought to allow established teams with a QB or another player coming out of his rookie contract you can keep up with teams that have QBs that haven't had to pay out the big bucks. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFanSince1969 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 You can do this. The Texans traded osweiler and a draft pick to someone just so they'd take his contract. It's not common but it's doable. Vandy, Faithful Falcon, Ovie_Lover and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought. You sorta can...just not how you're thinking. You can trade a player with a lot of dead money and they'll take the dead money in exchange for either giving a lower draft pick or even getting a draft pick in addition to the player. It happened a few times this year I believe, and it's what we were exploring with Devonta Freeman Ovie_Lover and papachaz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good back and it was their 4th pick in the draft there, Pats took Michel and Seahawks took Penny in the first over him. It's the exact reason I hope we don't use a pick on a back until our 55th pick or later. Every year a really good back goes in second or third round, hope we are smart enough not to reach in a deep class with no true top tier talent this year.

I wouldn't be against something like this 16 - Kinlaw 2a - Dobbins 2b - Gallimore 3rd - kenny willieks 4th - best OG/C available 5th best TE available Then in free agency look at the best DE SLB and CB you can afford.
