How about Beanie Wells (1 Viewer)

I can't imagine any team is going to put anything of value onto the table for Wells until he can prove he can stay healthy.....it was an issue at college and as a pro. The talent is there, but he is too fragile or just has bad luck.

 
Are you guys kidding me? Why would Zona ship their first round pick from last year? He looked completely dynamic last season. You can NEVER have too many ball carriers. The thread poster is insane; and all of you even entertaining the idea are equally insane.

 
Why trade for Beanie when you can have Chris Johnson? The packers should get Chris Johnson, the Titans don't need him, they have Javon Ringer. They'd then have Chris Johnson and Aaron Rodgers and Greg Jennings. They should also trade for Andre Johnson, they have Jacoby Jones and Kevin Walter who look really good. They should also trade for the Jets D and the Gates. Their team would be pretty stacked then....and like such as.

Now you're being ridiculous. Everyone knows Gates is getting too old to invest much into. I was with you until right near the end...

You were making perfect sense until you got to Gates. GB already has the #1 TE in NFL history. I think Chris Johnson, Andre Johnson, and Jets D would be enough to to make them contenders. LOL at the OP saying the Beanie trade makes too much sense not to happen. It doesn't make one bit of sense.

We all know that 2 TE sets are all the rage now.. Imagine Gates AND Finley. It makes perfect sense.

Winky doesn't think anything. Winky's trying to generate a football related discussion.

You're the man Winkey. I agree that Wells would look GREAT on the GB offense. The problem is, there's 0% chance that GB would offer enough to get him. Apparently GB never trades away their early picks and Arizona isn't going to give up on their 1st rounder from last year. No matter how good you think Hightower looks.

Sure it does. It requires you to think outside the box though. That's why you're not an NFL GM. Beanie would be a big upgrade over Jackson. The Cardinals are showing the world they don't need Wells with Hightower tearing it up.James Jones, AJ Hawk...throw in some low draft picks and this could happen.Beanie needs a change of pace at this point. He didn't do much last year and he's struggling this year. He'll be like Thomas Jones - once he gets out of the desert watch out!

Arizona might be game to upgrade elsewhere. Isn't Hawk on the block? The pieces are here to make something work. This could be a huge win win for both franchises.

Come on back into the box of reality. Arizona isn't trading Wells for Hawk. No way Wells gets dealt to GB (or ANYWHERE). No way.

It wouldn't be Hawk straight up, don't be crazy. But those would be the main pieces.

1.) Arizona just burned a 1st-Round Draft pick last-year for Beanie Wells. He is well loved by the coaches and in the locker room; why would we dump him after one year? ...especially after he looked like an ELITE talent last year in limited opportunity.2.) Wells is a much better talent than Hightower. If Wells was playing he'd be producing more than Hightower. Hightower is pretty much a finished product; and an above average running back at that. Wells has the potential to become a stud.3.) The Arizona passing game isn't looking that great. If they could transition to a one-two Wells-Hightower punch; that'd be great for us.4.) We have a history of being COMPLETELY anemic running the football. Why would you give away the YOUNG depth we have acquired at this position. We are set at Running Back for Years.5.) RB is a position that is very injury prone. Why not balance a time-share between these two guys, to maximize production, and lengthy both of their careers?6.) James Jones? Why would we even want him? You do realize Arizona even without Boldin has extreme depth at the Wide Receiver position?7.) Wells is struggling this year? He hasn't played a single offensive snap. He's been hurt.8.) AJ Hawk while being a decent player; is no one we should give up any significant draft picks for. I would rather the Cards draft using a 4th or 5th round pick than get Hawk. Because we have a History of hitting strong with our later picks.-By god... I've just been fished; haven't I?

1 - because he's injury prone.2 - hard to argue against what Hightower has done. He can't outproduce him if he can't get on the field.3 - all the more reason they should move one of their guys - get a qb, wr, something. Maybe work a deal for Kolb with a third team.4 - yes but at the expense of other spots. Better to have a full starting lineup than awesome backups.5 - again they need to upgrade other spots.6 - okay, go with another name. Just tossing out names. James Jones is pretty good though. Driver's replacement. Are you saying Donald Driver is garbage and worse than non-Fitz players?7 - exactly. what good is all his supposed talent if he can't get on the field?8 - Hawk would only be part of the package. nobody but you is talking one for one.
 
I like Beanie, but the guy sprains his ankle going through the drive-through at the bank. That's the last thing that the Packers need.

:popcorn: :thumbup: Yeah ok buddy your about the only one to think Beanie DIDNT look dominate last year in his rookie season. He's a better talent then Hightower will ever be so please put down your cheesehead colored glasses and stop the wishful thinking he ever gets traded to the packers.
 
It's obvious myself and others have been fished here. Either way I feel stupid; mods please lock this thread.

For those who are keeping track. He first admits that Wells would an upgrade over Jackson. Then denies he's an upgrade over Hightower because he can't stay healthy. Trying to make some point that he's a useless body who will only get hurt in Arizona; but will revitalize his career in Green Bay...?

He's just trying to piss people off with nonsensical logic. Just ignore...

:) How does me saying he's better than Jackson mean I can't also say he's not clearly superior to Hightower? Hightower is "good enough" that the team can make do without Wells. But he's soooo much better than Jackson that he's worth the gamble, injuries and all.

 
I'm pretty sure AZ realizes Hightower is terrible and has two long runs padding his stats. When you lose by 30+ pts the 80yd runs don't mean a whole lot, especially when you lose two fumbles to STL and nearly give them the game. But hey, he sure is GREAT at pass protection lol. How's that working out for their QB so far?

 
Wells would be a huge upgrade over Jackson, not sure why this is getting da hate.

This is one of the lamest arguments this board sees. You want to remove not one but TWO of his longest runs? Why stop there? Heck, if you remove Brady's 50 touchdowns his record breaking year wasn't all that great.
