If your team is in a "rebuilding mode" you pretty much have to listen to offers. You don't necessarily have to accept them, but you'd better listen.

I would trade him right now for a number 1 pick. Sounds crazy I know but he likely only has one more good year anyway with Herm as HC. His best years are far behind him already...this offensive line takes another big step bakckwards next year with the loss of Shields. Add to that the fact that he no longer runs angry. The way LJ ran the ball in lmited duty from preseason of 2005 into the first half of last season was the most tenacious performance I've ever seen by a running back and it's because he was pissed off....but that aggression is gone. His contract is up after next year and it's doubtful he'll be back....if CP franchises him and he does come back he'll be a locker room cancer. Might as well get something for him while you can.

The key is to have an offensive rushing attack as a whole that averages 4+ yards/carry. Whether you get that from one back carrying the football 30 times a game or splitting it up among many backs is irrelevant IMO. The age of the 1 back offense is behind us.

Why would the Lions want LJ? running back is not where thier problem lays. Kevin Jones is a good back I doubt they are giving up on him this fast.

No you go to a run Offense featuring LJ that can chew up the clock and keep our D fresh. Trade Tony G and Huard though.

Thanks Herm.

Any thoughts on what color blinds go with eggshell white walls?

If Detroit has the #1 overall pick, I'd make that trade in a heart beat. Packaging LJ and some other players/draft picks for the #1 overall pick and say Roy Williams and a 3rd rounder would be huge for the Chiefs. They could finally get their QBOTF in Brady Quinn and have him sit behind Trent for a season or two, and they'd get a big time playmaker at WR in Roy Williams.

Also Detroit of all those teams would be the perfect place to trade LJ if the Chiefs are going to trade him because you'd get him out of the AFC

Trade a known quantity (LJ, Probowler) for a CHANCE (Draft pick) at a good player.

Stupid ****ing idea. Dumb all the way around.

If LJ were 33 maybe...

No, This is a bad option. LJ is a franchise RB, and guys like this don't come around everyday

Adept Havelock 12-29-2006 05:23 PM

No.

Nyet.

Nein.

Where's the "Are you nuts?" option?

Oh. There it is.
