Would you make this trade?

No, but I would LOVE to have Cooper and Mack.

Cooper was my favorite player at Alabama, even when Ingram and Richardson (lol) were both killing it.

He was your favorite player as a JR and a SR in HS while Ingram and Richardson were in their last seasons at Bama? Interesting.

Here's a fun thread for hypothetical trades for the Colts. The rules are you have to answer the thread and then propose a reasonable trade also.

Here's mine...

Would you trade Andrew luck, TY Hilton, and Bjoern Werner for Derek Carr, Amari Cooper, and Khalil Mack?

 

No i wouldnt make that trade.

As for the second part of your question, would you trade matt hasselbeck & AV for peyton manning & denvers kicker mcmanus.

From a player talent perspective, maybe not. But from a purely financial perspective, this trade would make a ton of sense for the Colts. Hilton got his big money deal, Luck's is coming in the off-season and Werner will likely be off the team. If I recall correctly, Carr and Mack can't renegotiate their contracts for another two years, and Cooper 's comes up in three. On their rookie deals, they're making peanuts compared to what TY and Luck are going to be pulling in next year. In fact, we could probably fit all three in for just what TY is making, which would save US about $20-25 million in cap space going forward the next two-three years. And we would still be good at QB and WR, while adding one of the best young pass rushers in the league. I'm not sure Oakland would agree to this trade.

Luck has big upside.  Has not reached his potential yet.  Not saying Carr doesn't but Luck has been more hurt than I think any of us realize and yes, his judgment waxes & wanes at times, but _tit_for_tat, AL will get us to a super bowl and no one else could do that with the "un"supporting non-monster cast we have assembled.
