I would only do it if it will also help us in the future as well. I would not make a deal just to be better this year.

We literally have a negative point differential. Lynch will sell if he's smart, not buy

We are sellers without much to sell..at best. We need to hold on to every pick we have and if we can add to them, do it and don't look back. In case you forgot, our list of needs is long. OL, DBs, DL, OL, OL, OL, OL…
I just did the free three-round mock at PFF and just selected the highest rated available OL at our slots, and they gave me an A+ lulz.
They'd be smart to use that strategy aswell lol

This.
I could maybe MAYBE understand trading for say Justin Simmons. Trey Hendrickson though? Yeah that's out the window now (especially since he got hurt yesterday too).

Save your picks. All of them. If anything we should be sellers. This is a grow and learn year for the young guys. In particular on defense. Nothing can save this after both Bosa and Warner are down. Expect to lose a lot now. Giving up picks would be lunacy at this point. We could have a mid 1st round pick. Middle and late season expect to lose a lot. This no longer can be held up by defense and special teams and winning close games at the end. You would be just throwing away your future at this point to do that.

There's no realistic trade that will help this defense. They literally have zero good safeties and now their linebackers are going to get exposed. They work way too hard for minimal results rushing the QB. Just take your bumps and on to next year. Maybe they get lucky and make the playoffs but this also won't be the end of the injury bug. We know it won't.

I would still call the Saints and see if they're willing to trade us Davis and Jordan for a 6th (better between ours and Vikings 6th). Anything more is too much.

They will get better. I'm not reacting a player for one year and losing draft picks for it. To many injuries have bitten this team and I don't think there is a trade that will help us immensely.

Can't sell if we have a winning record. We need to see what happens over the next few weeks before the trade deadline. If we lose the next 3 then we have our answer. Not sure who on our team that anyone wants that they can afford, or is healthy enough to contribute.
