    Perfect time to do trade with the short week and the semi bye.

    I have been impressed with the special team improvement. I do give gaine some credit for that.

    If Amari Cooper got a 1st round pick, what would AZ demand for Peterson?

    Isn't the rumor 2 first rounders? I can't imagine the trade demand being made public helps AZ's cause though.

    Yes.

    They were a win away from extending JG.

    Cooper for a first. Gross.

    I wonder how soon until Derek Carr is playing for Jacksonville?

    1st and a second would get it done if I had to guess.

    We would have a leg up considering we are not in their division nor conference.

    This means nothing. He even mentioned later on he still hasn't talked to Patrick.

    Either the team or his agent leaked it to Schefter.

    True. Things might change. But if the coach doesn't want to trade him and the owner doesn't want to trade him; he ain't getting traded unless he is able to change their minds.

    They also don't have enough cap space for him

    Only the

    Texans
    Browns
    Colts
    49ers
    Titans
    Jets

    have the cap space to take Peterson.

    Of those, only the Texans or maybe Titans have a realistic shot at the playoffs.

    Understandable given his background, but with Honey Badger here and our cap situation, I'd say we're in the conversation.

    Minus the Texans that’s an awful list of teams.

    And more importantly, he doesn't get to pick the trade partner.

    Well I'd argue that even including the Texans it's an awful list of teams, but the Texans have a LOT more potential than any of the rest. Adding Peterson could give the Texans a SB winning caliber defense. It's why I argue that getting a deal done for a 2nd rounder and maybe a 5th is a no brainer......and why I think it won't get done given the Texans FO

    I doubt a 2nd and a 5th is enough to get it done though. My guess would be 2nd and 3rd?

    I could see that, but given the limited number of teams with the cap space to make the deal I wouldn't even consider a first rounder.....unless it comes down to a bidding war with the BE-SF's
