Yes, but Miami didn't seem interested in increasing their offer from #5 and #26. They were still on the fence with that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TL-TwoWinsAway Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 Can we try and get a few more votes tonight? I gotta head to bed soon and, due to the 10 A.M. draft start and 40 minute windows, I'd like to get something in stone tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigC421/ Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 My vote is for Tua however if the room has decided against that I’d prefer to try to work something with Miami. What if we go after 18 and send a late pick back there way. They can play tough all they want at the end of the day they’ll feel a lot better coming out of this draft with Tua.

I think the biggest issue is the time frame of working it out. Also, if they’re not wanting to do 5 and 26, I’d don’t see why they would do 5 and 18 for 3 and a later pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigC421/ Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 For the record I don’t have a problem with the deal if we’re off Tua and Miami seems disinterested ( they know we’re voting I assume so it’s **** or get off the pot) Does SD have an official offer , seems a few different things were on the table Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Official LAC offer: #6, #37, #112 and a future 3rd round pick for #3, contingent with Tua being available at #3. MIA was still discussing #5 and #26, but seemed to be on the fence, and possibly wanted us to toss another pick in. The Chargers offer is a good one. If not accepted, we move to Phase 2.

TL-TwoWinsAway Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 The bigger issue here is the time slots. Things are going to move fast tomorrow, and we don't have the luxury of picking up a phone and making things happen right away. If we can get something agreed on tonight, it puts us in a much better position for tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigC421/ Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 I don’t see why future picks are irrelevant for the exercise. We’re playing front office, objective should be to do what’s best for the franchise not to put the best immediate roster on paper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't get to spend them, so they're often seen as irrelevant. I think it looks good to have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TL-TwoWinsAway Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 (edited) Heading to bed guys. I'll be on early and all day tomorrow. We're on the clock at 11:20 A.M., and will need to have a final decision before then. If not, we move to Phase 2. Edit: Phase 2 doesn't have to be a secret, so I'll just post it now. If both trades fall through, we 100% draft Tua and give MIA and LAC 1 hour to give their best offer. If they don't, we happily keep him behind Stafford for a year before he becomes our franchise QB. If they want him, we'll accept the best offer. Edited April 3, 2020 by TL-TwoWinsAway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sllim Pickens Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 I am iffy on the SD offer. Is Lamp off the table now? I’d be fine with the offer but also don’t mind taking Tua. Would SD have any interest in Stafford? Given the time frame, I don’t expect a lot of interaction so likely this is it or pick at 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few of them are willing to move Lamp. We can definitely offer something for him separate from this deal. I don't think LAC has the cap space to take Stafford. They discussed it, but it would require that they cut a defensive veteran to make it work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
