With the trade deadline just a few minutes away are there any talks going on? Anything that anybody has heard of?

Looks like nothing
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I've always found it fascinating that in a league with so many players and teams with so many needs/injuries that you don't see a whirlwind of trades every deadline. There just seems to be a ton of deals that make sense that never get done.

I think there would be a lot more deals done if they get rid of the cap hit on trades

I think a lot of it is a 'fitting into the system' thing. It's hard for the guys to come in and learn all the new plays and stuff coming from a completely different system.

We should've traded Atari Bigby and A.J. Hawk for Ed Reed and Ray Lewis!

We are getting ripped off.

Bigby for Polamalu and Harrison.

Hawk for Reed and Lewis.

Sure we lose talent, but at least we get some mediocre depth compared to those guys.
