[QUOTE="net, post: 19215, member: 200"] The whole idea of trading a decent player to main contender was about as appealing as trading Brett to the Bears. It makes no sense to make a strong team stronger, especially one you have to climb over. With the injury bug that seems to plague this team, you can't have enough help. Trades only work when BOTH teams benefit. Other than an Eagles starter, there wasn't much that would benefit Green Bay right now. Simon was out of reach financially, and Andy Reid ain't going to give the farm away for a wide receiver, since there's dozens available who could play. They might not be T.O., but they will do. I think what the Packers are thinking is the team will be good enough to get through the early part of the season. The Packers MUST win most or all of their first six games to be around at the end, the middle part of the schedule is brutal. So losing a player which might be key to those early victories for ???? nixed any trades. I get the sense that TT isn't a big "trade" guy. He builds...and I fully agree...with young speedsters you can sign cheap and then let the coaching staff build them into players. [/QUOTE]
