Some of the following players have some degree of trade-ability in terms of their talent alone:

1. Dak. (His cap number is prohibitive)
2. Martin
3. Tyron Smith
4. CeeDee
5. Cooper
6. Parsons
7. Pollard
8. Tank (his cap number may make him un-tradeable to the team acquiring him)
9. Gallimore
10. Odiggie
11. Diggs
12. Anger


There may be a few others but that’s who comes to mind off the top of my head. Dak’s contract really makes it hard to trade him but he has value otherwise.

I would say that ANY player on this list should be evaluated and shopped to see what the market is for that player.

Tank, Tyron and possibly Pollard should be viewed as “salvage value” trades for the team. Get something out of them while you can and invest that “capital” back into the team.

Martin, Diggs, Cooper, and Parsons fall into a different class. In my opinion Diggs’ stock will never be higher. His INTs dropped into oblivion later in the year. If I could get a first round pick out of Diggs (and something else as a bonus —starting level player or a premium pick) he would be GONE, and I would draft his replacement.

Cooper is a guy who is replaceable and his cap percentage really makes the team top-heavy as to the cap. If I could get a first round pick out of him I would ship him out. A second might do it to a bad team picking in the top 5.

Martin is still a very good player, but if I get a first and a third out of him, he’s gone too. His best days are behind him.

Parsons is a guy you really DONT want to let go. But you shop him because you might get a Herschel Walker sort of trade for him. He’s at a high impact position. Luke Keuchly etc all played lights out for a while and then they fell off the face of the earth due to injuries. You shop a guy like that and see if someone will overpay to “get the next LT”.

Only guy that may be tradable and not on a rookie contract is Martin. No one is trading for our other overpriced “stars”.

Several teams would take Coop but they know we have to release him if he isn’t traded or doesn’t agree to a pay cut.

Of those listed I would like to see what they can get for Diggs and Coop. Many on that list just aren't tradable

I think you're greatly overvaluing the trade market for most of those players.

Age, underperformance, and contract - the reasons you want to shop them - are as apparent to trading partners as they are to you.

Lamb would net you a 1st and 4th.

Cant believe they signed dak to this stupid contract. Stuck with this clown for years to come.

You’ll never get a first round pick out of Cooper. He does not produce at the level a 1st round pick-valued receiver should, he is not consistently healthy, and no one would want to pay him the remainder of that albatross of a contract.

Possibly. He is merely listed as a potentially traceable asset.
