He's 33 years old on an expiring contract, with a cap hit in the range of Cooper. If they lose on Sunday @Cleveland, might the new regime be open to make a deal for the future?

 

AJ Epenesa, Javon Solomon, 2025 Diggs Pick (~#60), and a 2026 1st round for 2nd round pick swap? Is that way too much? Way too little? Not even in the zip code of acceptable for either side?

No offense, I laughed reacted to your post because that is wildly a lot to give up for a 33 year old player.  I think we learned our lesson with Von already.  

 

Day 3 pick, sure lets talk.  But all of that above is unrealistic, especially since Beane already traded his 3rd rounder.

Even if we don't take his contract into the equation - the Chargers are 4-3. They're in 7th place in the AFC. Firmly in the Wild Card race right now, in a generally weak AFC (when you consider our division). Why would they make themselves weaker and make it harder for them to get a Wild Card spot? The Chargers aren't sellers.

 

Also, we are getting some End help this week. Von Miller has spent his 4 week suspension and will be returning to the team. And if he returns to the form he was playing at, that wil be big help.

Way too much - AJ Epenesa has been very productive DE with inexpensive contract next year.

Maybe the most insane trade idea I've seen on here and that's saying something 

 

2 players a 2nd round pick plus a swap for a 33 yo rental

 

Not to mention that even if the chargers lose they will be 4-4 and probably a favorite to make the playoffs 


You misread it. We’re also throwing in our 1st rounder. Does this make you feel any differently?

If I'm looking to beat the Chiefs I'm more interested in picking up a pocket clapsing, disruptor of a DT. Because the strength of KC's O Line is the center and 2 guard interior. Not the OTs.

Who that guy might be, or if anyone like that is available i don't know. But I think we need that more than another edge type guy.

Agreed! My thought was no one is collapsing their interior, at least not someone we could add, might as well try to take advantage of the relatively weaker edge

Meaning what?  You wouldn’t even trade a 6th rd pick for him?

 

I don’t think he’s as bad as you’re making him out to be

 

No, I'd trade a 6th for him. He won't be available for a 6th. The pick "it would take" is a pick only a bad GM would throw at a diminished player who, IMO (and I get this is a controversial view) was one of the most overrated players of the past decade to start with.

Copy that.  
 

you think it’ll cost a 2nd or 3rd I assume?

You are correct.

 

 

An extremely unpopular take. Borderline heretical. 
 

Mack past Chicago - overrated. Mack Chicago/Raiders -  arguably the best EDGE player in the league.

Yes I would think so. And giving that up for a 9 game rental of a 33 year old who isn't a game wrecker IMO when this team is still in the process of reloading and isn't one piece away I think would be foolish in the extreme.

Wow,

 

that’s a lot.

 

even a few years back, would have been a lot.

It’s not going to cost anything because he’s not going to be for sale.  The Chargers are 4-3 with games against the Browns, Titans, and Bengals the next three weeks.  That’s not a team looking to have a fire sale.
