Earl Thomas Opinion

[garyv]

Naturally with Dez gone and some of his Salary available the Earl Thomas talk has been a hot talk again. The last talk with Seattle was our 1st and 3rd Rounders do you think this is still what Seattle wants or what will they actually end up taking our 1st, 2nd, 3rd or still a combo...............


What will it take to trade for him and what kind of salary ?

 

[3rd_n_inches]

The 1st being the arm and the 3rd being a leg. the Salary will be discussed while Seattle urinates in our cheerios.

I just can’t see us giving the draft away for Thomas. Stephen and will value the draft too much and “spent all that money on hiring scouts”

 

[nightrain]

Two or three picks in the first three rounds plus top tier salary would be the dumbest personnel move made in a long time.

 

[erod]

Seattle needs to do something before the draft. I'd offer a 2nd and Cole Beasley. Take it or leave it.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Giving the 19th pick for Thomas would be so incredibly dumb. No more than 50th pick at best is all it should take.

 

[John813]

Wouldn't give up the 3rd round pick for him.

He wants to get paid, and is going into his 9th season. Already has a ring. You think he'll still have that fire playing here after getting his last big deal? He'll go from Kam, Sherman to Heath-Chido-Lewis.

I think he's a very good safety but he's been blessed playing with a dominate front four, good LBs and a secondary that was allowed to hold on every play.

 

[CowboyStar88]

I’m not giving premium picks for a 29 year old safety.

 

[DHCBF66]

If we are going to throw picks out there to get a safety, trade up and draft a guy. I will not be happy if they trade for a guy pushing 30 who wants to be paid like he is 21.

Giving the 19th pick for Thomas would be so incredibly dumb. No more than 50th pick at best is all it should take.

Anything more than a 4th is dumb and even that seems dumb for a 30 year old safety with a massive salary and only one year on his contract

Two or three picks in the first three rounds plus top tier salary would be the dumbest personnel move made in a long time.

Yes, since Dez was released. That would be like 3 or 4 players for 1.

maybe a 3rd and Beasley...not sure about the 2nd, but I understand what you are suggesting.
unless it is a conditional 2nd for 2019.

 

[Idgit]

I think he’s worth a third, maybe a third and a fourth, if his extension isn’t completely insane.

How long was Ed Reed effective? Thomas is in that class.

That would be really stupid.

Ed reed also had a better defense in front of him than Thomas would have with Dallas...yes they may be in the same class but not the same set up by far

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Two or three picks in the first three rounds plus top tier salary would be the dumbest personnel move made in a long time.

This, if they are even considering this is STUPID!

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Would NOT consider a 1st or 2nd PERIOD.

 

[erod]

Could he not have a tremendous impact on our young, talented secondary?

 

[erod]

That would be really stupid.

Switzer replaces Beasley. Thomas is the best safety in football.

Easy.

 

[unionjack8]

anybody thinks this happens when we are on the clock in round 2/3 or before the draft?
