Jonathan Cooper?

Answering you
1. Looney is still on our roster for vet min salary. Is that impressive to you? That hurts your argument, not helps.
2. Cooper is on another team(bench if youre considering his injury, which is exactly where Looney was before the Fred debacle lmao) because he got offered a high salary contract. Looney was a free agent did he get offered a high salary contract?
3. Trading a pick for a guy you let walk isnt a negative lmao. What sort of logic is that? Im sure the Chargers would have hated to trade a late rounder for Brees. That's on you for an awful argument.
4. I guess you have a crsytal ball of sorts. Because theres a low chance thats going to happen. Unless they command a high salary.

You dodged the question but, would you let a player who beat out your STARTER last year just sit on the streets instead of offer a contract? Thats what you said.

Parse it how you want to, but one guy signed and the other they replaced. They’re not turning around and coughing up a pick for a guy they just let walk. That’s insane.

I didn’t dodge your question. I ignored it completely. Looney was paid to be a backup, and that’s the role they wanted him for. Nothing wrong with that. Cooper isn’t a good enough value to have kept at his cost. And he’s not a good enough value to trade for. Nobody is coughing up a pick for that guy. Which is why his last three teams picked up off either the street or off of waivers. The fourth traded for him in a bundle for a 2nd round pick and then let him walk.

Let’s just see if the guy wins a starting job or loses out to a roster long shot. Though, if he does win a job, that begs the question of why you think SF is going to cough up a starting OG for a 7th round pick. That sounds a lot like backup compensation to me.

Currently a backup G for SF. I wonder if SF would take a 7th or 6th to send him back to us. He has position flex at G/C and knows our system.

Interesting thought but not gonna happen. Don't stop at Cooper, let's go out and trade for Leary. Again. snowballs and hell don't mix
