jrry32 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 As for Tavon, we already paid him most of his salary for the year. At worst, he's a great PR. At best, McVay's levels-based attack allows Austin to find space and have a nice year as an offensive weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socalmab Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 wondering if the Patriots might have any interest in Austin with the possibility of them losing Edelman??? What would they be willing to give? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're missing the point, he thinks some one would give up something of substance for Tavon, not just take a camp invite flier on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, maybe. After the season, we could probably get something for him. But this year, it's not enough to be a worthwhile trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flounch Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 With his salary, there's no chance we would get something in return for Austin. We have to stop dreaming. Next year he would be cut, that's the only move we can do with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year he would be cut, that's the only move we can do with him. His salary that another team would have to pay this year is $3.5 million. Next year his base is $3 million with a $5 million roster bonus. He's easily tradable as a 1 year trial then if he responds with the team the following years are cheap. 2017 is his biggest cap hit and it's about 1/3 of the total contract.

Flounch Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 It's hard to believe one team willing to take 8M of salary for someone who can't really play outside or inside. But let's see what Austin will do this season with mcvay, there's always hope... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLunatic88 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 No real good place to put this thought, but this is the last place we taked about trades. I really wish we could have swung something to Cleveland for Cam Irving. I always knew he was available, and it only took a mideocre 5th round pick for him. He may be trash, but he started with better talent than most of the OL we currently have on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NVRamsFan Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Erving was one of the worst OLinemen I've ever seen play a game. No thank you to any pick being spent on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, because the Browns O-line is actually pretty decent. I would take a shot on one of their backups (even as bad as he has been) who has the talent to play any spot on the Line, over some of the Street guys we have on the roster right now.
