That Redskins Fan Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 ted thompson will not make that move even though i would like to see aj here diehard buckeye fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdcredskins Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 im not sure any team would want him. especially if they have to take over his salary. i think most teams know where portis is at this point of his career. not that durable and not that good. portis gave us many good year when healthy but right now, he isnt marketable at all.

MattFancy Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I think the Packers are willing to deal Hawk because he's not an ideal fit in their 3-4. So I'm not sure he would fit in here either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrifNick21 Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Rocky has been great on the inside. Why would we move him? He's been one of the lone bright spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRSmith Posted September 27, 2010 Author Share Posted September 27, 2010 We do? why not trade Andre Carter a real liability on Defense for a pick in next years draft. I think Williams Torrian and Simpson And Carter is better at DE but his value is on a team that runs thr 4-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeezgob Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 This is not Madden. He's an aging back who comes saddled with an enormous contract, no one is going to be dumb enough to take him off our hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those guys are average at best. I would consider Clinton good. Carter is a DE in the 4-3 but we run a 3-4. Ship him out bro! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRSmith Posted September 27, 2010 Author Share Posted September 27, 2010 Who would want him at this point. With what we have we would be better running the 4-3 but if the coaches do not want to budge then start getting people who can play the 3-4 and we have to look at the age of guys like Fletcher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jivelikenice Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Absolutely agree a trade needs to be made. Move Portis, Dockery, Big Al, and Carter as they seem to be in the doghouse or an absolute horrible fit for what we're doing. Stop messing around with a half retooling and get to work!....

JohnnyUtah Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 General Rule: Don't trade young for old. Can't see this happening on GB's end. Plus, player for player straight up trades don't generally happen in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianm23 Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 AJ Hawk did very well as a LB until they switched over to the 3-4 defense. It was at this point he was ineffective as a LB in that system. He's a 4-3 linebacker, so why in the hell would we want a guy who isn't good in the 3-4?? Vinny, is that you?

GibbsFactor Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 If you ask me, it's #59 that's getting caught in the wash and not making plays that's hurting our defense more than #52. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 You think anyone would "trade" for Portis? People aren't going to trade for running backs that slide and fall down on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlobberknockerSkinsFan Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I honestly don't think a 7 ypc avg. yesterday constitutes a trade... Had Portis and Torain been used to their full capacity yesterday, and had a combined 175+ yds. rushing, then this thread becomes null and void and the sky hasn't begun to fall the way it has around here today.

Gold Pants Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I would trade Portis for Hawk in a second. However, I think Green Bay would want to make a deal with Buffalo instead of the Redskins. Marshawn Lynch has been a better RB than Portis so far this season, is younger, and makes less money.

Mania Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I have a friend who is a die hard Packers fan and is currently living in Minnesota, but is from Wisconsin. He told me that AJ Hawk is ill suited for the 3-4 and that is why he isn't playing in GB. We don't want to do this trade unless we can get a three way and send Hawk to another team for someone else.

TheismannQuote Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 If you ask me, it's #59 that's getting caught in the wash and not making plays that's hurting our defense more than #52. Ding Ding. As much as we all hate to admit. With subpar play in the front 3...the OLine is making it thru to our linebackers on rushing plays. Fletch, at a tough 5'10" gets swallowed up in the mix of bodies. This isn't a good fit for him, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
