Should the Colts trade James? - Page 2

If EJ starts to play on a team with a grass field I guarantee he will get a lot less injuries. If the Dolphins picked him up, they would actually be a respectable team.

Does anyone think Jeff Garcia is washed up. He still has a good arm. At least he is not Trent Dilfer. 50% of the teams dont even have a good QB.

Doesn't the answer to your question 100% depend on what they could get?

Exactly.

If they can get an upgrade to a starting defensive position and a decent draft choice. There are enough quality RB's in this draft, and their offense would still be good enough with Rhodes starting.

The only caveat is that whoever his replacement is better be able to sell the play action every play.

I would have let Harrison go and kept James. They already have enough good receivers and Harrison is already 32, so his best years are behind him. Theres also a ton a good RB in the draft this year so they probably would only get a 2nd or 3rd round pick for him anyway in a trade.

I think they should, James is an extremely talented back, but with the depth at the RB position in this years draft and the talent that they have on their offensive line he shouldn't be too hard to replace. In addition, they're not going to win a championship until that defense is able to stop someone.

Yeah, this pretty much said it all. Most plausible rumor I've seen is to Miami for Surtain and a pick

yeah. That or until Manning stops yacking all over himself. 4 crucial INTs 2 years ago, 3 total points this year. Yeah, sure it's their defense's fault. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

This is what the Colts need to do if they want a shot at the Super Bowl. They need to package James with Manning and trade them both to the Patriots for Brady and Dillon.

But of course it will take a moment of insanity by Belicheck to pull it off so it aint gonna happen. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

The Manning/James duo is better than Brady/Dillon, everything esle being equal. The reason why the pats are better than the colts is defense and coaching. They need to add to the defense not subtract from the offense. If anyone is expendable its a member of the WR corps, not the best RB in the game.

If your trying to make a chain stronger, replaces the weakest links not the strongest ones.
