Best case scenario for us, and what I so badly hope happens is: Blaine Gabbert lights it up and we're able to trade CK for at LEAST a 4th or better. I don't see much trade bait other than that.
Thoughts on this trade? Kendricks signed a 4 yr $29 million deal... what if we swapped players and contracts with Philly they get Kap we get Kendricks, plus maybe some sort of draft pick swap?
They have Kendricks, Hicks, Kiko, and Ryan that's a lot of LBers.
They get a possible long-term QB with a year to year deal (not a ton of commitment) plus we change draft picks whatever that may be and we take on Kendricks salary and get a stud LB?
If Gabbert falters, I'd love it if Kap could pull it back together and be that guy we hoped he was becoming. It looks less likely as time goes by, though. Too bad. TONS of talent. A stud ILB would be great. $7MM isn't peanuts, but he's good. I'd like to spend $$ on the OL, but if Kap is moving on, we'll have the $$ to spend in more than one place, for sure.
