are you seriously suggesting we're making the playoffs in the next 2 years?
I’m suggesting that’s the standard Monti should be held to if they believe he’s done a good job over three years of building the roster and that’s why he’s still here. Has NOTHING to do with what WE believe is possible.

Seriously: “we should trade Josh Sweat for a first round pick we hope can someday be as good as Josh Sweat” is certainly a line of thinking that will lead somewhere.
Yeah, shhhh…don’t let Monti hear this. He may pull the trigger.

A hard “no” for me as well. We need some building blocks if this team is going to crawl from the wreckage.

The answer is no, but just thinking about it hypothetically, you'd need to get a Sauce Gardner type return (2 future first rounders). Then draft the edge you think is best at #3 (which probably will have the most value at that pick) to replace him and take the extra 2 first rounders to put yourself in a better position to grab the QB you want next year and/or fill other holes. Even in this scenario, Sweat's cap hit for 2026 is half of the dead cap money we'd be on the hook for if we traded him.

Of course we should, now that we have a first year coach expectations have been reset and its okay to lose again!
