  1. 1. What do we get for Duke?

    • A slice of humble pie. We ain't gettin' jack squat other than a swap of late picks.
      6
    • Gareon Conley after we toss in a late rounder.
      2
    • 5th rounder.
      8
    • 4th rounder.
      5
    • 3rd rounder.
      2
    • 2nd rounder. Just kidding. Hornby.
      1
    • Another swap for a no-name player who will end up outplaying the guy we gave up.

He's more valuable to us than he will be other teams.  I don't see anything more than a 5th at the very most, if we're talking draft picks.  Who is going to give up a 4th or higher to pay a pass catching back $5M p/season, when that team can use a 4th round draft pick, or even a later one, to get a pass catching back on a rookie deal?  A player-for-player deal where another team is looking to get rid of someone seems the most likely to me, unless we really settle for late-round value. 

Of the poll options, I'd be fine with a guy like Conley, who could possibly add depth and potential at the CB position.  I'm not sure how eager Oakland really is to ship him off though.

Agreed. Except I cannot imagine the Raiders trading Conley for a RB like Duke and a late round pick.

Just touching base with everyone. Trade talks are going well and the plan is to move Duke before the draft. Thank you all for your patience.

Oversold, under-delivered so far.
