This of course assumes the staff believes Morgan could handle LT

Probably a conditional 2nd that has a chance at becoming 1st based on snaps played.

Am I overvaluing Walker? Probably. But quality LTs are at a pretty big premium in this league

I'd imagine the Chargers decline but im ok with having quality olineman need to sit on the bench if we have more then 5 and just fetching a comp pick

Yeah I know it's too early to give up on someone, but I'm over Marshawn Lloyd.

Bengals asking price is apparently a young defensive player and a 1st rounder. Pass.

Yea that's way too much, especially given the contract we'd have to give out. But I doubt any team gives up that much

Wait 'em out. They will most likely want to trade him to the NFC so that eliminates half the teams. Still 3 weeks to go.

I'd toss em LVN and a Day 2 pick in a heartbeat, but good luck getting any sort of 1st round draft compensation for a guy on the wrong side of 30. Hard pass.

Gary + Day 2 pick, this way we kind of use Gary's money to extend Trey, who is way better, although 3 years older.

Trading Gary now gives us a dead cap hit of $17 million next year vs. a cap hit of $28 million so we save about $11 million (assuming there is no extension). Bengals would be responsible only for his base salary, $18 million this year and $21 million next year (at age 30). LVN they could have 2 years cheap and then make a decision. Not sure which way the Bengals would go, they are in "win now" mode for sure.

I wonder what kind of surgery takes like 6 minutes to heal.

Was the surgery on Love's left hand? That might explain the quick mend up time

So about the same as they wanted a few months ago and teams said no.

Its a bold strategy Cotten

Plus Trey is 30 years old. He's good but for how long? That alone ain't worth a 1st rounder.

As a former player I find it unfortunate when fans react that way. I understand it's frustrating but this game is not easy on the body and some are fortunate to have a long career and others don't. I'm sure he put in a lot of work to be ready and healthy for this season. A lot of it comes down to luck. He's a special talent so let's hope we get to see his talent on the field soon. I won't tell you how to be a fan just giving you another perspective.

I'm sorry but logical thinking is frowned upon around here.

Sorry but it's awfully tough to have faith in a guy with this amount of durability issues already at the most physically punishing position in the sport. I don't blame anyone for being out on Lloyd at this point. We've seen it happen with plenty of RB's over the years. Some guys' bodies just aren't built for it.
