Free Agency

[SissyBoyFloyd]

Serious now: What would happen if: ?

A team is on the clock in R1, and at the last minute get an offer they like. Thus, they go ahead and trade their R1 pick straight up for a starting WR. (Sound familiar) The team giving up the WR, goes ahead and makes its choice and all seems well. However, the following week, it's found out during a physical that the WR traded for has chronic arthritis in his knee or hip. How is the team that gave up their R1 pick going to be repaid, or are they simply stuck with the WR? It's obviously too late to give the Pick back and let them choose now that the draft is over. So what happens?

Someone can correct me on this, but I believe if that happens the earth will implode. So pray to whatever deity you believe in so that it doesn't happen. Or perhaps at the rate we're going it'll be the most humane and painless way to go out anyway.

If I am wrong, I will defer to the one most knowledgeable of this subject.

Feel free to shut up then. I was talking to Stout. I was clarifying he doesn't expect to be very active in FA.

It didn't require your pointless multi post strawman intervention.

I don’t see them clearing cap space to extended the players on this roster.

I’d keep Hopkins before taking OBJ

In the NBA, the trade could be voided. I would think the same would apply to the NFL. Traded players have to pass physicals.

But you've lost draft picks to a team that used them...How so you put that toothpaste back into the tube?

The trade can be voided and further compensation and penalties can be handed out by the league.

Maybe you can't put toothpaste back in the tube but knowing violators can be punished and the reputation of the infringing GM involved in the trade can be tarnished. The word of the GM is everything when trades are involved.

Going back in time: I wonder how many teams later wished they had selected La'el Collins in the first three rounds of the 2015 draft.

One further back Randy Moss or maybe Aaron Rodgers

Neither were before the courts if I remember correctly.

In Moss'es case it was a substance abuse question Back then it was a big deal (marijuana) I think but I could be wrong about what substance it was the point personal character matters a lot in the NFL but not as much as it used to

Mao was also a bust in the CFL.

Terrible fan club too!

I'm not sure I can live in a world where guards are getting paid $21m a year.

Bad teams giving 10% of the cap to a Guard is some bad roster management.

$63m fully guaranteed too!

Raiders swapping Derek Carr for better looking Derek Carr with less arm would be hilarious.

I'd have thought it was a rigged number with lots of un guaranteed money on the back end but apparently there is $63m fully guaranteed!
