Sauce to the Colts

You have to take into consideration these are rookies on cheap rookies deals. This team is about building through the draft, developing, and re-signing their own guys. I would never trade two first round picks for Sauce.

They got fleeced and are left in a SB or bust situation with … * checks notes * …. Daniel Jones as their starting QB. Okay. I guess.

That’s what was I thinking. Plus it signals a long rebuild needed. AG may get more time now. Gotta find the qb though

Spot on. But riffing off of that it appears the Colts are behaving like they have a true franchise QB in Daniel Jones. That seems rash.

The Rams are rare. They got rid of all those ā€œsuperstarā€ big contract players who have done nothing since, kept their HC, kept their QB and rebuilt this team through the draft. We’re talking 5th and 6th round picks.

Are you feeling okay bud? :smiley:

You don’t. Remember all my old threads of trading for Surtain ?

Totally. AG is changing the culture. He’ll want to get rid of players that don’t fit and bring in players that do. Good trade for him.

Honestly bro I’m glad you see it too I’ve been saying this for years.

You can get 3 proven vet starters right now

Dremont Jones just went for a 4th or 5th

We pissed away 2 4s and 5 you are so right

Crazy

Why are we conflating trading mid rounders with selling the farm for a freaking CB?

Maybe this works out for the Colts but this is Seattle Jamaal Adams level bad process IMO.

I’m not sure AD Mitchell is good for your culture but that dude is one very talented WR. I think the Jets fleeced em in this deal. Sauce is very expensive and they cleared a lot of cap.

Because it’s not selling the farm.

They just drafted Sauce with pick 29 in 2026 and used a future 1st to do it.

Teams do it all the time every year on draft day

DPOY was a CB last year

But we are discussing the presumed value of picks now …and the discrepancy there is come April for the value.

Rams are the only team this has worked for.

  • Bears traded 2 1sts for Khalil Mack.
  • Browns traded 2 1sts and then some for Deshaun Watson
  • Texans traded 2 1sts for Laremy Tunsil
  • Bears traded 2 1sts for Jay Cutler
  • Dolphins traded 2 1sts for Ricky Williams
  • Cowboys traded 2 1sts for Joey Galloway
  • Buccaneers traded 2 1sts for Keyshawn Johnson
  • Falcons traded 2 1sts for Jeff George
  • Vikings traded 2 1sts and then some for Hershel Walker
  • Seahawks traded 2 1sts for Jamal Adams
  • Colts traded 2 1sts for Eric Dickerson

Of those, Keyshawn technically won a Super Bowl, but they won it in spite of him thanks to elite defense. That is regularly ranked as one of the worst trades in NFL history.

That doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be done, but everyone acts like it’s a fait accompli that doing so is a good move, when history says the exact opposite.

You have no clue where they are going to pick in either of these drafts nor who it will turn into. If you think this is good process that’s fine. I respect your right to have sh!tty takes. :slight_smile:

And it was a QB. Two firsts for a star QB sure. For a generational pass rusher? Maybe. For a cornerback that has merely been fine+ since Russia invaded Ukraine?

Yeah I think it’s a win win trade like Lions/Rams Goff Stafford trade

Good job by both teams Colts & Jets
