[QUOTE="Curly Calhoun, post: 631902, member: 10752"] Trades are fun and ****. Great fodder for discussion forums, much like free agency. And, after a bad game, it's easy to panic and say we need a trade NOW. Teams that do that are likely to get fleeced. Making a trade is not always a bad thing. Seattle got Marshawn Lynch in a trade. Hard to imagine them winning that Super Bowl without him. Making a trade is not always a good thing. Trades made for Hershel Walker by the Vikings and John Hadl by the Packers are prime examples. If you're one player away, and "that guy" is out there, it makes sense to pay a reasonable price to acquire him. I don't know who "that guy" would have been for the Packers, or if he was available. I'm not convinced Vernon Davis was going to put us over the top. Who else, then? It's a moot point now anyway, we'll go with what we have. And that's better than most have. And next season, we'll still have all of our draft picks. [/QUOTE]
