[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 475099, member: 4199"] Sacks are rather over-valued, I'll agree to that. However, you point out that there are only 17 such players in the NFL. Presuming only one per team, only 53% of the teams have such a player. I'd call that quite rare. That you personally would trade Matthews for Thomas straight up is your opinion, which is why I'm just picking on you. ;) You are clearly of the opinion that you need great offensive linemen to win. I think just need good enough. For left tackle, which I would certainly prefer to be our best lineman, anything much better than the 12th, 13th best does not appreciably improve the offense. A player as good as a healthy, 2009, late 2010 (as health as he got those years, anyway) Chad Clifton is all the offense [I]needs.[/I] I'd like better of course, but that's probably all that is needed. Conversely, if the defense loses Matthews, the defense folds. Period, full stop. He IS the defense. Giving up 30 points would be a common occurrence. We have no other SuperStars on defense. No player is untradeable, including Rodgers, but the price for him or Matthews would be so high as to make the effectively untradable. For Rodgers, hypothetically, I'd take Luck or RG3, and the next 5 number one picks, next 5 2s, and any other player of my choice. For Matthews, it'd be a player and two ones, minimum. [/QUOTE]
