[QUOTE="Boltjolt, post: 141727, member: 800"] Yep, it is a chance you take and he took that chance with Brees and it worked out. However, I do know AJ Smith does like what Turner brings to the team and he really wants to win a championship. If he thinks Turner is a key to that, he wont trade him unless he gets a very good deal for him. Im just going off of what he has said in the press locally in San Diego and from past comments on wanting to win it all. He knows how good the team is. He gave Tirner the higest tender for a reason and doubt he did it just to swap places in the first round with a trade. He'll want more or he wont make a trade. He does stick to his guns when he believes strongly in something. Heres an example: He did not like Donnie Edwards whining every yer about his contract and tried to trade him last year but gave a deadline for a deal to be made. He asked for a 2nd rounder which i agree is a bit steep but the Saints were really interested and they offered a 3rd and he turned them down a couple times. They finally offered that 2nd but it was the day after the deadline he set and said no to them. He wanted the team set by a certai date and they were a day late...they lost but still got another player and had a fine season. And he would have really liked to trade Edwards too because he thought he was a distraction because he was really letting it be known that he wasnt happy with his contract and some of the players didnt like it.
