ATD: Rules - Discussion - Trades Thread

[VanIslander]

@Pestilence indeed

 

[VanIslander]

To be clear: i was on the football team in high school in 1986. I wanted to be free safety (and will likely draft another one as an extra, since they excel on special teams) but my coach, who was the high school pe teacher and a former MLB Montreal Expos draft pick minor league pitcher, he ruined my life by saying my 6'1 205 lbs frame should be a TE. I lobbied to be a LB at least (wouldve played it like a FS) but he threatened G and so TE it was. I scored two TDs. But i had a hound dog mentality and wanted to hunt. Every single practice i asked to play d and often did. Those are my fav memories. I am a 9-time chess champion, beating everyone in elementary, middle, high schhol, uni (though getting my ass handed to me in the national finals after luckily getting past provincials in 1979, 11th of 12 in the room officially with two draws, two losses, mossing that guy from the Yukon. Woohoo?) (Oh, and i get my *** handed to me regularly online in chess. Bloody Russians! And thousands of other high rated players

 

[Tony Romo]

I have 4 guys I want with my next 2 picks. Someone make this easier for me

 

[VanIslander]

Brady has Ogden.
Montana has Munoz.

(Unitas has Hutson and Sayers? .. we are getting historically offensively punked)

 

[Tony Romo]

so far 8 QBs have been selected and this is the order:


1 . Tom Brady
2. Patrick Mahomes
3. Joe Montana
4. Peyton Manning
5. Johnny Unitas
6. Dan Marino
7. John Elway
8. Aaron Rodgers


Wonder how different that is from each persons all time rankings of the position

 

[VanIslander]

After the top 3... i was happy to wait in a 13-team draft.
There are arguably 3 better than the 8th one, as said on sports talk radio, morphed into Internet content, but still shock jock-ish.

 

[VanIslander]

It's always great to get a player who also excels on special teams:

 

[VanIslander]

4 thru 11 are arguable, interchangeable, build around able... it's 12th and 13th that seem a tier below.

@Michael Farkas is up

Brosephs you can’t tag people in an edit, it has to be the original

 

[Tony Romo]

Technically speaking, Farkas is skipped as of right now. We've been moving steady, so I'm okay with waiting a bit more but you can make the call @LT

Yup, my bad. Didn't get notified until a couple hours ago (thanks to those that reached out), sorry if I mucked it up any...

 

[Tony Romo]

There was a DB I really wanted to take. But I loved the position versatility of Bruce Matthews (all pro at all 3 IOL spots) and say what you want about T.O but in my books he's the 3rd or 4th best WR ever.

 

[GKJ]

@LT and I are spicing things up and making a trade. We’re swapping 4th, 7th, and 9th round picks. I guess I’ll wait for him to confirm if this is how it works @Tony Romo

I strongly considered him too.

Can I get the #s and I'll input it

 

[Tony Romo]

@GKJ nvm, you're up.

LT trades:
Pick 41, 90, 116

GKJ Trades:

Pick 51, 80, 106.

 

[LT]

@GKJ nvm, you're up.

LT trades:
Pick 41, 90, 116

GKJ Trades:

Pick 51, 80, 106.

Confirm

 

[Tony Romo]

A Saints fan thinking Drew Brees is top 5 all time?!?! Say it ain't so.


Drew Brees is basically Romo with a better team!

 

[Tony Romo]

@GKJ nvm, you're up.

LT trades:
Pick 41, 90, 116

GKJ Trades:

Pick 51, 80, 106.

all those picks to trade up for the right handed version of Tua!

 

[GKJ]

Tua has like 3 better receivers right now than Brees ever had lmao

 

[Michael Farkas]

If I had drafted Brees (which was something that I've been considering since the 1st round), I have enough to make a plausible case that he's better than Brady.

I'm curious to hear this argument

1 . Tom Brady
2. Patrick Mahomes
3. Joe Montana

5. Johnny Unitas
6. Dan Marino

I like how you think

I'm not sure if you're being serious but if so these are some awful takes and I very much dislike the Saints.
