Why do i feel like the Giants will get him?

Also, why do i feel like everyone is lying about his tackling?

If thats all it takes. Whats the hold up?

A 2 and a 4? I’d throw in my left testicle to sweeten that deal. What are we waiting for?

Is your left testicle better than your right one?

I’d much rather make this type of move at 1-0, 1-1 then finally admit we need help at 5-5.

If it is true it is likely an extension conversation that would be the holdup

Maybe. I also dont think its true.

Sure I’d trade Rakestraw and Manu for him, that’s a good deal

If it is a 2 and a 4 I do the deal I would even do a 2 and a 4 and a 2028 4th or 5th if maybe they need a little more sweetener

Then pay him 30m per? Because nobody’s trading for him without an extension…

Ready to wave good by to LaPorta or Branch? Or Both?

We cant pay everybody, and Branch is… a question that I think we know the answer too

LaPorta we should pay for.

I don’t know the answer…but if he’s 75% the player he was, which I think is very likely, I’m keeping him around. He represents everything this team wants.

Give me LaPorta, Branch, 2nd & 4th rounders vs Porter (a non tackler/non turnover player) and the dominos that come with it.

I would however give up a 2nd and a 4th for 2-3 years of Porter with no extension. But that’s not how these things work. But there’s no scenario where I want to see a trade and big money extension headed his way.

The Steelers have been standoffish with holdouts/hold-ins. Are they pivoting culturally without Tomlin? This wouldn’t be their usual M.O.

I think Branch at 75% is not worth keeping.

One Name. Tracy Walker. Remember when he tore his achilles? Jeff Okudah? Torn Achilles.

Tre’Davious White? Torn Achilles, was never the same and was burnt chicken in coverage

Modern Medicine is a hell of a thing, but for any DB a torn Achilles is a genuine death sentence in this league

The salary cap isn’t real, just restructure and kick the can down the road when the cap keeps going up anyway. Dont have to say goodbye to anyone. And with injury history laporta and branch may just be on the more affordable side.

That’s if this is for a 2 and a 4 though. Twitter is less reliable than A to Z sports

In all fairness Okudah was ass from the word go. Walker had a few moments
