Wouldn't a trade have already taken place? I mean its getting kinda close to draft day and I think if they were going to trade a player, they would have done it buy now.

I see LJ, Tony G., and maybe DJ being on the block.
This is something Im really starting to admire bout Pioli. Nothing is instant with him. He waits and lets others start or "jump the gun". Wait and analizes,.
When it was the most obvious that Herms should be fired (with the exception of Lions HC). Instead Herm gets fired last out of 11 HCs fired.
I appreciate someone who takes decisions this seriously. Even the ones that seem like no-brainers.
Yes I know you want to see some action in trades and FA, but let Pioli work his magic.
Besides, what other teams do you see making trades and such.
What about that FB from Seattle that is built like a tank?
We could sign him.
I see LJ, but have not seen nor heard anything that would indicate the other two would be trade fodder.
I think there is a lot of speculation right now, and Pioli's tendency to not flood the world with news of his plans and ideas is awesome. We'll know who's up for trade when they get traded under this GM.

the only one i can see traded is Larry Johnson.
Well, the whole Tony G. trade saga midseason combined with Pioli's unsentimental streak combined with our desparate need for OL and 3-4 defensive personnel makes me think they'll at least assess his market value. If they could get a low 1st/high 2nd for him, it wouldn't shock me to see him traded.
And if Pioli and Haley don't think DJ can hack it in a 3-4, he has value on the trade market given his athleticism, low salary, and youth. Come to think of it, Hali might be on the market for the same reasons.
I just don't see any other player that has any trade value at all, and whom we would trade. Dorsey's cap hit is too big. Bowe isn't going anywhere. Thigpen has more value to us than we could get in a trade. Waters , Pollard, Carr, Flowers, and Albert aren't going anywhere. No one else is probably worth a pick.
