No way the Colts do that deal.
Jeff Wilson has zero NFL trade value.
Miami's "tradeable" assets are Ogbah, picks, Cedrick wilson (who the colts do not need) and that's about it. They likely will give the colts one of their backs when they make the move (except the two rookies bc lets face it, if they get JT the rest of the room is minimum guys or rookies). So that means Mosert, Wilson, Ahmed or Gaskin (not as a "chip" but more as a throw back for cap relief). of those 4 I think Mosert and wilson have the same cap numbers.
The Colts probably have no interest in any of their RBs and certainly no interest in someone like Cedrick Wilson. Sounds a lot like let me trade you a bunch of our junk for your good player. It sounds more like spoken from a fantasy football guy.
i bet they'd be interested in achane
Maybe. I probably should have said "any of the RBs listed".
If not a 1st, then a collection of picks that equate to a 1st. Or perhaps a very good player and some combination of picks.
So you're essentially saying he won't be traded.
Nope, that is not what I am saying. I get the meaning of your post however.
I do not disagree with you, and personally I am less high on Miami trading for JT than leaving well enough alone and going with the group they have "UNLESS" they get a decent deal for JT. Irsay can't have it both ways. Eitehr JT is worth a lot so pay him accordingly or he isn't and therefore not worth a 1st rounder (real or in the aggregate). Miami also doesn't have that many picks as they have mortgaged a lot of their future on spots more important than a 14 mil a year RB (which oh by the way they need to pony up for).
I believe you are wrong thinking the Colts don't have leverage. They have plenty of leverage. JT is under contract and they can either play him or trade him and should not accept a bad trade IMO, because when they lose him to free agency next year they probably will get a 3rd round compensation pick anyway.
Johnny, Honest question as a fan: what would you consider a "fair" deal considering how much Irsay screwed this up? If they got a 3rd in 2024 and a conditional 3rd in 2025 woulld that be fair, low, or high? I think a 2 plus a conditional 3rd in 2025 is too much. Not trolling, just wat the "well, I guesss that was as good as we could have goten for this mess" from you.
No, that isn't good enough. Regardless what Irsay said on Twitter, that doesn't change JT's value. If I were the Colts I wouldn't trade him unless I got what equates to a first round pick. If that means a collection of picks and not a 1st, so be it. Otherwise, just keep him and get a compensatory pick next year anyway. Probably a 3rd, and play him this year.
Eagles fans with these Cowboys predictions
Ok. So no "We screwed the pooch" discount on Taylor. I doubt a deal gets done that will be to your liking. As a dolphin fan I don't think a first round aggregate is worth it unless we get to trade some cap relief back or its the 2025 pick that is the higher one.
All it takes is two teams that want him.
I agree with this take. The Dalvin cook scenario all over again. Dalvin still rehabbing the shoulder for a win now team like the jets. Taylors injury better be of the "hellenic college Flu" variety if we trade for him.
I think Miami has a number in mind just like they did with Dalvin. Granted its a bigger number now bc its Taylor, but I don't think they budge off that number. Taylor is a luxury.
True, Taylor on the open market gets a CMAC deal. Therein lies the RB arguemnet.
How is Taylor just a luxury? It's not as if the Miami RBs are that great, plus Achane is hurt. I have my doubts about his durability anyway due to size. You vastly overvalue your favorite team's RBs IMO.
That's where you are off base. The Colts are in control. Taylor is under contract and they will get a comp pick next year anyway. Just play him if a trade can't be worked out. Like I said, all it takes is two teams that want him for the Colts to get what they want.
Miami has 4 guys who are the same on a team that is built to pass. I know McDaniel is a run guy but he did that in SF with Deebo not a star RB. Taylor is a luxury for this team bc if they really thought they needed a RB Dalvin wanted to be a Dolphin adn they could have had him just for cash, not picks. Taylor is better and that is why they are in the mix, but again, they are contenders with him or without him.
You Dolphin fans want him but want him on the cheap. I'm not saying the Colts will get what they want, but I'm sure they don't want a bunch of garbage players and a 3rd round pick either. That sounds like a fantasy football trade offer from "that guy" in your league that offers you a bunch of crap for your stud and when you decline, he says, "counter?".
10 team league. 50 man rosters bumped up to 55 short term to make space for draft picks. Cuts are due soon so maybe something better than sermon pops up. Right now there’s really only a few dart throw wrs and idps out there. Super deep league540?
Does your league have a television contract? Because you should be getting paid to participate in a league like that.
I guess, keeping Sermon makes more sense now.
Will you quit making a big deal of Irsay. JT is under contract, he has a lot more value than Dalvin Cook for a team that covets him for more than one year. JT will either get traded, play, or sit. I doubt the latter because it’s not as if he’s made a boatload of money, he’s still on his rookie contract.
You keep saying this but it isn't true. They might get a comp pick, only if they don't sign other free agents that offset it, and it wouldn't be until the following year if they did get one.
Ballard isn one that signs big name FAs
I have a feeling several teams are interested in JT and it only takes two of them to get into a bidding war.
JT can have a lingering calf injury or not play though anything and you still have to pay him. He can also be a bit of a cancer and they still have to pay him. He can Ole a block for richardson and they still have to pay him.
They can say don’t come into the office. Sit on your couch and watch the game or buy a ticket. I‘m sure the Colts don’t mind paying that contact either. He’s still on his rookie contract. As for the ankle, my guess is that he is Ok and would pass a physical in the event of a trade.
Irsay was pretty smart with the hiring of Bill Polian and Tony Dungy and drafting Peyton Manning over Ryan Leaf. I also like current GM Ballard and HC. How quickly we forget. Irsay is a knowledgeable football guy.
