The goal here of course is not to dump off a HOF player. The problem is that he (apparently) wants absolute top dollar and is ALSO a HOF player. It's complicated. If the goal is to NEVER trade away a HOF player, shouldn't Donald be able to demand 50mil a year, or do you let some loser like the Lions offer him that salary? I mean at some point you choose not to gut your team just to get one great starter in a field where 21 other players need to be good starters too.
The goal is not to "Trade a top player for picks", it's to get something back when a top player wants to break the bank. Let him break someone else's bank.
Nice take, ARF.
Yeah, the ultimate objective is to make moves that optimize one's team's chances of winning football games.
Sometimes, one must accept losing a battle in order to win a war.
AD is a very fine player, indeed. But he's not untouchable.
