Ellis Trade Destination?

[DLK150]

If we were going to trade Ellis and it wasn't for picks, what about Anthony Weaver from the Ravens? 6'3", 290, 3-4 experience at tackle and end and they're going to a 4-3 so they could use Ellis. I think Weaver's due to be an UFA soon though.

He has the same size as Ratliff. I think we trade for a position that can start. ROT, FS, WR, FB, ILB. I wouldn't trade a starter for someone who is going to come in and be 2nd string.

So this explains why Alge Crumpler didn't make the pro bowl. I'm not a Vick fan, but Price is garbage...

Vick with all his running around has trouble following Receivers down field the TE with the shorter routes will always be his best target no matter what WR he has. Giving Mexico a great WR is like putting headlights on the tail end of a car. Its useless.

Vick has a cannon for a arm but like I said he doesn't have the ability to follow his receivers why I don't have a clue. If he could he would be a great QB but right now I'd say he's in the lower half of qb's because his legs can only carry him so far so long.

and Ty Law, Pioli are on their way here too right Nors? How long have those moves been in "the works?"



David

I'm right there with ya Nors.

I'm calling Pioli in the next 2-3 years, particularly if Jerry checks out sooner than we expect.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Ellis isn't going anywhere this year.

 

[Nors]

Ellis wants out.

You don't know squat about Price's ability. He had a monster season with Bledsoe and has great YAC and big play ability.

I never was pushing Pioli here much atall if ever. No way JJ gives up that power. But keep breaking the forum rules to attack me with off topic BS.

Ellis is on the outs with Parcells and is not being a team player here - CLEARLY. This 3-4 move is under some people's skins.....

 

[Nors]

Ellis isn't going anywhere this year.

Miki - I'd have agreed with you a week ago on Ellis. Glover is the consumate Pro and will be an asset in both schemes. Ellis has wanted out for awhile and has been on block for months. His tantrum was to call Cowboys and force the trade.

Ellis would have had a role here - but he's being a dumb ***. Good bye Ellis!
Spears/Canty are better day 1 anyway - maybe Ellis fears competition! lol

 

[Nors]

Pioli would be a great move, but he resigned extension with Pats. Nothing to do with this thread but thats the pattern of David. Avoid the real discussion.

 

[Nors]

HUH?

Price wouldnt play ahead of either Key or Glenn here...so you basically are trading a starting calibar DE for a guy who MIGHT at best be the 3rd WR here...

yeah, thats the way you build a winner...trade solid starters for losers



David

Your solid starter wants out. Said "what is my role" and is putting himself ahead of the team. He doesn't fit our Defense long term. I'll take what I can get. #3 receivers see a lot of reps..... And Key/Glenn are getting old and injuries happen.

Spears, Canty, Ratliff, Coleman, Ellis and our 3-4 DE options are PLENTIFULL!

 

[jterrell]

Atlanta for Peerless Price!

If that happens I am banning you for a really crappy idea that took hold

Peerless has proven he isn't a number 1 WR and may not even be a decent #2. Greg Ellis will be fine when the pads come on like he always is.

 

[junk]

Spears, Canty, Ratliff, Coleman, Ellis and our 3-4 DE options are PLENTIFULL!

A guy that hasn't played it, a guy with a bum knee and eye, a 7th round draft pick, a bum named "Strong Dog" and Ellis. There are plenty of options....are they good options?

I want these rooks to show me something before I declare them as better than any of the vets. We could have the next Carver or Ekuban on our hands.

 

[dbair1967]

What Ever. If he had a Decent QB who could throw the ball he would be having good seasons. I'd take this trade I a heart beat.

I hate Vick as much as anyone, but Price drops a ton of balls and is a major cancer...that has nothing to do with who plays QB

the guys been a monumental bust

uh memo to you guys...Pioli just signed a long term contract extension to stay in New England

you dont know that he wants out, nor do you know what he said to Parcells

if the 3-4 looks like garbage in preseason, you can bet it wont be the base defense

bravo...bravo

someone with somse sense

Price has little to no value. Not productive and very overpaid.
Ellis has good value as a very good 4-3 end with a very reasonable salary.
Here a couple of scenarios I wouldn't mind seeing
Greg Ellis to Kansas City for Greg Wesley would be a good deal and makes sense for both teams

Greg Ellis to Cincinnati for Kelly Washington

 

[dbair1967]

for either of those to pan out, the other team better be sending us a 1st day draft draft pick as well...Ellis is way better than either of those two guys

....

Actually ellis is quoted as saying, "Do I want to be? Yes. I want to be in Dallas, but I wouldn't be surprised if he did something with me at the end of the season because I don't think Bill liked the way I came to him."

It doesnt do any good to point out facts to Nors...

Amen. We're pencilling in these guys as good starters, better than established vets we have, before they've even had one practice in pads yet.

I'm as high as anyone on guys like Ratliff, but it's just not realistic to believe that every late round pick will become a frontline starter.
