What were all of the trades we were offered, but we rejected?

I have heard the Ravens were willing to offer a 1st and a 3rd to move up and take Zeke, but we passed. Any others?

What trade offers did we make that were refused?

The attempted move up for Lynch is interesting, but I 'm not sure what offer we made?

This info is interesting because it tells us how much we valued players ..... the ones we drafted .... and the ones we didn't.

The fan said the ravens offered a 4 to swap from 4 to 6 with Baltimore, where is the 1 and 3 coming from? unless you are saying swapping 1's and they offered a 3?

My understanding is Jerry offered a 3rd and an early 2nd for Seattle's 1st. Everyone knew Denver was looking for a QB, and Lynch was the top guy in the pecking order. Also, with a 1st coming with a 5th year option, it is truly a premium pick. Add a potential franchise QB to the mix, and that increases the value of the pick even more. Jerry made a conventional offer in a situation that required an aggressive one, IMO. I thought at the time his heart just wasn't in it because that is his tradition, and I still think that may be the case. Look at what the Rams and Eagles did to move up to 1 and 2 to take their quarterbacks.

Hopefully Lynch will flop and Jerry will come out of this looking good. Oh, and Wentz, too. Especially Wentz.

I'm not saying any of the trades should have happened or not, I'm just curious what the offers were.

I had heard it was ultimately a swap of first round picks and their 3rd, but then the Ravens said it was for Zeke.

The Cowboys had offers to move down in the 2nd. I dont believe there was more than a 4th rounder offered for any of those moves.

Dallas also attempted to trade up to Cleveland's pick at the top of the 4th round (#99) to select QB Connor Cook, only to have Oakland get the deal done for Cleveland's second 4th (#100), one spot ahead of the Cowboys (#101).

I never heard what Dallas was offering.

All the Raiders needed was their 4th and 5th.
