Offseason Fun, Pt. 2: Seattle is on the phone

..............

lol.

They are offering you, Jerruh Jones, Richard Sherman Earl Thomas and an undisclosed draft pick in exchange for Zeke Elliott.

You can't alter the deal. Take it or leave it. What's your call, Jerruh?

 

[AsthmaField]

Leave it.

Elliott is going to be a monster and stars from one team rarely recapture their mojo at a second stop.

Without knowing the pick, it is an easy no for me.

 

[casmith07]

Leave it.

Made an edit - care to answer again? Thought I'd make it a little juicier...!

 

[Super_Kazuya]

The value of the draft pick is kinda important on this one. Of course with McFadden's offseason shenanigans, it may not be viable now anyway.

 

[AsthmaField]

I edited my post too, in order to explain my thoughts a little bit.

After edit answer is still the same. No thanks.

"They'll be no deal you see...... "

Lol

It's a 2nd, or it's a 5th. You don't know until you pull the trigger. Whats your call?

 

[CCBoy]

No thanks...and in a Jerry view, he stands to lose millions in turn-style and promotional dollars...

You keep changing the deal, lol. Though Thomas and Sherman are pretty equal, they have both made three first team all pros already and unless something weird happens they both are going to the Hall of Fame.
I would do it. I'm not anti-Zeke (actually kinda excited now that he's here) but I never was a fan of the pick at 4 and to get that caliber of a player in a position of need and a pick would work.

I'm just adding stuff for you to help you make a call, lol. Trying to make it where it's intriguing for most to spark some fun discussion during the worst part of the year for sports. Nothing on TV but baseball and the WNBA.

 

[Cowboy06]

Nope. I'd trade him for 3 number ones, 3 number twos, 3 number threes and 10 players of our choice...but I know you just asked a simple question...do we have Hershel around to get traded again..?

 

[JBS]

How could anyone say no? That I don't understand

 

[CCBoy]

Yes

 

[StarBoyz83]

Keep zeke because our pass rush is still in the bottom 10.

 

[DTown214]

I mean... we're talking about arguably the best corner and best safety in football right now. That would be extremely difficult to decline but I love Zeke. I think this team is built to win better with a dominant offense, and that includes Zeke obviously. Ehhh... I'm keeping Zeke. If Sherman and ET were both 21 yrs old and we knew they would pan out to be the great players they are now, then I'd take the deal. But both players are approaching 30.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I'd take it. Id rather take my chances at finding another Elliot than I would the best safety in the league.

 

[Kaiser]

I would leave it. Zeke is 20 and will be great behind this line while Thomas is a great player - he is 27 and at an age where he may start to decline.

Tempting, but pass.

If Im trading a top 4 pick on a rookie deal, it's gonna have to be for elite money 5

Because both Sherman and Thomas are cogs in a system. Take them out of that system and they are a lot more "mortal" especially with this defensive front 7. Elliott will have 10 times the impact on this team that either Thomas or Sherman would at a fraction of the cost.

At least that's how I could justify it.
