Thread: Trade Proposal

  1. #1

    Default Trade Proposal

    Many year lurker here. I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I wanted to throw a trade proposal out there. I'm sure I'll get a bit roasted as this does seem somewhat ridiculous, but hey why not?

    Broncos Get:
    Joe Thomas
    Josh Gordon (looks like he will be reinstated and Browns want nothing to do with him)

    Brown Get:
    DT
    2017 2nd round Pick

    There is nothing left in FA to help us solidify LT
    Terrell Pryor is likely to sign elsewhere and Cleveland could use a #1 WR

    Worst case scenario, Broncos trade DT and 2nd for Joe Thomas and get nothing from Gordon. That would be a win for Cleveland.
    Best case, Gordon bounces back and replaces DT's output, and Broncos essentially trade 2nd for Joe Thomas.

    Thoughts?

    I think Gordon has pretty much used up all his 2nd and 3rd chances. WAY to big of a risk to try and swap him and DT in a trade. Plus, DT is worth more than just 2 players in my opinion so if i were theoretically do that trade the Browns would have to give up Joe Thomas and at least a 1st this year and next. But with all that said i dont see anything like this going down no matter who and what picks are involved.

    I would pick Joe before Demaryius during recess.

    but Demaryius' relatives supply some good shit.


    It would be an interesting trade though.

    What the Browns want are draft picks. I could see trading our first for Joe Thomas and come out ahead. But let us try first:

    Cleveland sends Joe Thomas.
    Denver sends WR Cody Lattimer, their 2nd round pick and Mr. Irrelevant (last 7th rounder). Dangle the first rounder only if needed.

    Two firsts and Joe Thomas for DT? Not a chance. They'd never get the two picks for him...let alone an All Pro left tackle.

    In Madden, i traded Okung and Stephenson to Chargers for Rivers.

    Then teams offered me #2 pick for Trevor Siemian.

    i declined. Because he is the hero we need right now.

    I somehow get the feeling Joe Thomas never wanted to be a Bronco. He is satisfied rotting away in shitty ass Cleveland.

    And if it was going to get done it would have happened in the past couple of years.

    I'm over it.

    Very true. I failed to consider DT's intangibles. Cleveland throws in a 7th in 2019?

    More so advocating for Joe but I agree with DenBronx. He's probably wants to stay in Cleveland or he would have already been moved. In no way am I advocating to trade DT but if Broncs don't do something drastic, they are stuck drafting LT at #20.

    Lattimer has no trade value but thank you for bringing back super bowl memories with the mention of Mr. Irrelevant.

    Ah yes, a 7th rounder in two years changes everything!
