Highsmith and Freiermuth for AJ Brown?

I don’t believe the words that are inaccurate

 

If we trade for a wr it may be after tmrws game. that would give him a long week to get accommodate to the team/ playbook...

 

I agree.
Except for "poor choice of words" - We need a WR, it is that simple. And, for 2 years now.
I don't think he would cave in and give up a "king's ransom."
I know for a fact, there is a potential trade being discussed. I do not think he will pull it off as I 'think' the price is too high, speculation on my part.
In this case, I think Pat and a late pick is the highest I would go. In return I would expect to get the player and a later pick.

Omar is not a top tier GM, he is mid pack at best. He's adequate and yet also not stupid.
I think that if a deal is there and not too complicated, he might do it. I am not worried about him overspending. (You are dead on the mark there.. it is the right thing not to do)
For the time being, I think the nickname "Megatron" won't be passed on to some guy named Roman.

 

Agreed, and it would be infuriating to see them make that trade after letting Pickens go for just a third-round pick.

 

Pickens already has as many TDs this season as he had all of last season. That said, he still hasn't shown that he is a NFL level WR1. He still doesn't block well, or legally at times. He barely runs a route at all on run plays. He is a great athlete and a natural WR. He may turn into one of the best during his career. But currently, he is still not a team player.

 

Pickens having those TDs this early in the season is a product of Lamb being injured, of course he's going to get a lot more targets now.

 

You never know...but if we were that close on a deal I feel like we would have heard more about it during the bye.

OTOH, the Minkah trade came out of nowhere.

 

I voted no, but only because of the above. Brown would be disgruntled x 2 on our team with our conservative offense.

In a vacuum, I'd quickly give up overpaid Highsmith (injuries concerning me...all about availability) and Freiermuth for Brown, but we'd just gain the Eagles headache and lose DE/OLB depth in the process.

 

I'm on Jacobi myers bandwagon, Don't know the price tough

 

You defend the choice of words and then say you know for a fact there’s a potential deal being worked on right now. Assuming you’re correct and I have no reason to doubt you that alone is proof positive he’s not sitting on his hands. As for whether or not he’s a top tier GM I would say it’s a bit premature to be grading either way. I think it’s blatantly obvious he wasn’t happy with Colbert’s last few drafts. Basically everyone Colbert drafted has been jettisoned by Kahn. I think it’s also obvious that he has an idea of how this team should be constructed.
