I read up on that and it did say he requested a trade, and then apologized for it the next day. He wanted to be a true NT and not a 3 tech, and didn't like the direction the defense was going. And he was tired of the team never improving. Reminds me of when we misused Leonard Williams and then traded him for a 3rd. He is still delivering double digit sack seasons at his true position.
Yeah, those are good points. We can split the difference. Anyhow I laid down my feelings and what I think we should be doing. Wont be to interested in the top 5 QB threads that will rage this offseason. And while I said we never have any luck, we are having some luck. Sauce got hurt after the trade, and their QB went down which could improve the pick. Maybe some good luck is a sign our overall luck is changing?
The Chiefs one is not that different from what we are talking about here. Extra 1st and 3d is pretty close to what I was saying. I am saying max extra 1st and 2nd or less. And if the Colts pick is good, maybe 1st and 3d like for Mahomes. I don't think the package I am mentioning, let's call it Miller package, is bad if we get the right guy. The key is to get the right guy. If we do, I don't think it will cripple us in other areas. Now, I am not prepared to do this for Mendoza. After watching quite a few of his games now, I do see what you guys are saying about his arm strength, throwing on the move, etc... I still think he has a decent arm and I would draft him straight up. But I do not think I would give up the Miller package for him. Moore, if he plays 3 more games like he has played in the last month, I would.
