How Bout This Guy?

Pro Bowl Guard Evan Mathis placed on trade block by Eagles.....

Shall we ? Its a need ....

Will be 33 years old this season. Still has 3 years left on a 5 year deal worth 25 million. He will be owed 5.5 million this year and wants more. No thanks.

Osiris

He's 32 years old, but I'd say if the price is right and he'd renegotiate his contract, it'd be worth a look.

He's looking for more, not less - that's why they're trading him, I thought.

Then I agree, no thanks. We can address the position in the draft.

Agreed. Plenty of options in the draft.

The board has spoken.

Darren, I hope you don't mind, but we get so many of these threads, I am going to turn this into a "How Bout This Guy?" thread.

Dolphins want to trade Mike Wallace. Discuss.

I'll go first ... even if the pinhead's ego could wrap around being a #2 in Cleveland ... his contract is obscene, no?

I think Dolphins are stuck with him.

No way on Wallace, contract is way to big for quality of play. Mathis on the other hand is interesting, he will go to a contender on a 1 year deal...Browns are not there yet...

Comeonman

Definite pass on Wallace. Typical clown who gets a huge deal and his play and desire to win goes WAY down

Westside Steve

Again I am hoping that Mitchell Schwartz can succeed at guard like Ryan Tucker did after being moved from tackle.

He already has 3 years left on his current deal. Why would he sign a 1 year deal? (Unless the Eagles cut him, which would be stupid) Your thoughts?

If he wants out that badly, he might restructure his contract to get a team to bite - they may not want to take on a 32/33 y/o guard with $15m and three years left on his contract.

Well I was wrong on that, for some reason I was looking at it as if the Eagles were going to cut him, which there is no indication that will happen. Getting traded and negotiating a 1 year wouldn't make sense to him either.

he's the poster child next to haynesworth for getting paid and then laying down.

Will want to be paid huge. No thanks with Tate on board. Bengals or especially Ravens may be interested- cut Rice, pick up Johnson.
