[QUOTE="SpartaChris, post: 376275, member: 1007"] Eh, maybe, but it really depends on the player and the circumstance. I'm generally not a fan of trading for a guy though, mostly because it seldom works out. Take Marshawn Lynch for example. People were livid we didn't give up our entire draft for him, but in the end, outside of one epic run, the guy really didn't do much better than the guys we had on our roster. Besides, usually you can find a decent replacement who will be cheaper and last a lot longer in the draft. I'd rather gamble my draft picks on those guys than give them up for a guy some other team doesn't have room for anymore. Sometimes it seems like people wants us to make a trade or sign some big name guy in free agency simply because they're bored and want us to do something. It doesn't matter whether the move makes any sense or not, they just want to see ESPN talk about some trade or free agent signing Green Bay did. This is the wrong mindset to have if you want to have sustained success in this league. [/QUOTE]
