Would you trade AJ Epenesa?

Once Von is full go we’ll have Rousseau, Miller, Floyd, Lawson, and Jonathan. Jonathan has shown promise.

 

Epenesa’s value won’t be any higher. He’s playing good football. The other option is extending him to pair with Rousseau in the future.

 

With the injuries Epenesa could bring back a solid player to help at CB or LB.

Because we're never a team that needs depth since we stay healthy all the time.......sure, why not?

We have depth. Jonathan looks good. We have 5 quality edge players not including Epenesa.

 

If Denver wanted Epenesa and a pick for Surtain you wouldn’t do it?

The only way they trade AJE is if they already decided he isn't a long term plans kind of player.

 

And I doubt they have made that decision after he is having a breakout through these injury opportunities.  Him and Groot could anchor our Edge rush a long time if he keeps playing at this level and shows its not just some little short lived hot streak.

No. get Elam off the roster for a box of tape and a 5th next year for all I care.  We are going to need him next year when we have to clear a ton of cap space/ have cuts.  He and Groot need to be the starting DE's going forward.  I don't even know if Von can come back at this point, but with his contract, we might have to keep him. With Von's age and injury history, he will be a situational pass rusher, not an every-down DE so AJ has to stay

Honestly I just had the same thought.   Depends on the return and the purpose.  If it’s to accumulate meaningful draft capital to buy a corner or a WR, and if Floyd, Miller, Rousseau, and Jonathan are all healthy … count me in. Sell a strength to address what could be a significant weakness.

Because it’s smart.

Do they have the money for him next year? Or is that Rosseau bucks?  If it’s going to Groot, trying to flip him for CB/WR/stud off ball LB is not a crazy idea.
