Twitter: SEA fielding trade offers for Earl Thomas

[Verdict]

No more than a 4th. Screw getting screwed.

Turns 29 this May.

Preach it bro!!!!

 

[Verdict]

You’d be hung up on quickly.

I suppose you would rather be fleeced!

Ok, I hate to do this but it's reality check time. There will be no trade for players like Earl Thomas, Quinn, Landry or any other name we know. There will be no free agent signings of players with names like Wilkerson, Robertson or even Vacarro, Reid, Bradham or Burnett. It will be guys we have never or barely heard of that fit our tight and basically non-existent budget. I would and will love it if they somehow bring in an Earl Thomas caliber player at any position but I just don't see it happening and the sooner we quit deluding ourselves the better.

OScan and a 4th for EThomas

If they'd take that deal then they'd probably just take a sixth rounder.

 

[bsbellomy]

Would you rather trade a 3rd for Thomas or would you rather use a 3rd to trade up for Fitzpatrick or James

You have to use your 1st and 3rd for James, not just your 3rd.

 

[ehwqkbmg]

It's hilarious that people actually think we can get ET for a 3rd round pick. I'm doubting they'd even want to trade him for a 2nd unless there are more problems behind the scenes than the public knows about.

Hope I'm wrong and the Boys steal him.

This is where a guy like Scandrick can come in handy if SEA is serious about moving on from Sherman, too. They're going to be drafting DBs here as they churn things, and getting a capable vet who can play inside and out while they get everybody up to speed could be worth something. So say, Scandrick, a 3rd and a 5th for Thomas. Something like that.

Good point................I would go as high as Oscan, 3 and 4 (this is where that 4th round comp pick could come in real handy)

 

[Beast_from_East]

He is owed 8.5m this year and a 11m tag next year........ puts 4/38m to 5/50m in play

Do it!

They’re missing draft picks. Earl will be 29. They don’t want to extend him. He’s been a headache as of late. Earl wants to be in Dallas. Kris Richard is in Dallas. We’re moving Byron to corner. We need a safety. It makes so much sense. A 3rd should get it done.

Exactly...............I would give them Oscan, a 3rd, and a 4th

If money is the issue, I cut Dez and give his money to ET..........I can draft a rookie WR that go can 23 games without a hundy

 

[Beast_from_East]

All this discussion for something that has a 0% chance of happening.

Yea, we all know its not really going to happen..................but its fun to at least think about it for a while

 

[Beast_from_East]

the cowboys don't have the money under the cap to pull this off a team with lots of cap space will more than likely get him

Cut Dez...........give his money to Thomas..............draft Ridley or DJ at 19.................problem solved

Dam, if I was the GM of this team we would be kicking arse

Dam dude, you couldn't let us fantasize just a little bit longer

Too expensive. He is on a big Contract. We cant eat it while be rather burn our Money on Receivers with 23 straight games without 100 Yards or Guys like T-Crawford who you cant tell if they have played or not. We also pay a TE that can barely move and gives you 3 Yards when you Need 5 Top TE Money

Wah Witten is as fast as he ever was it is the QB

 

[StarBoyz83]

I like Thomas but he's not coming to dallas.

 

[Sarge]

What contract does he sign once you get him here?

Exactly.

 

[Falco78]

I read online that Seattle plans to keep him

 

[stilltheguru88]

Nah I’m good on ole Earl. Next injury will he quit? Who knows

 

[Chuck 54]

Earl Thomas is still good, but he's on the way down. That's the wrong kind of guy to bring in, especially with his salary. We are not a championship team because of him. So Seattle is pulling a NE and getting rid of a guy a year early rather than a year late, and we're the suckers who think bringing his reputation and salary will garner us a Lombardy this year. I don't see it.

If we think one safety is the difference, then use that draft pick to move up and get a younger one.

 

[Chuck 54]

Seattle has a better defense than we do and a better QB and receiving corps, yet ET hasn't been a difference maker regarding a championship recently, so why do we think we should trade future capital and take on that huge salary?
