Comments on: Report: Bucs shopping Aqib Talib for trade

Redskins GM Bruce Allen drafted Talib during the Gruden era in Tampa, and Raheem Morris has been his coach for his entire pro career. I know Schiano is stating that he isn’t trading him, but the Redskins need to add proven talent after losing all of those draft picks.

They should just do an Asante for Talib trade straight up.

Eagles get to save almost $8M without losing their depth at CB but have to deal with his legal issues while Tampa Bay gets a stud CB who they can afford because of only spending $80M a year the last few seasons and then they can draft Trent Richardson.

If it weren’t for Talib’s anger management issues, we wouldn’t have to draft Claiborne. Pisses me off. We could have Trent Richardson or trade down and get a linebacker and additional picks.

I hope the Bucs learned their lesson with drafting head cases.

You know what he’d be perfect for the disfunctional Lions.

———————————

*dysfunctional………..and how are the Lions more dysfunctional than duh bears???? They actually made the playoffs….they didn’t lose 6 straight games to end the season like the losers from chi-town. I know you don’t want to hear this but duh bears are done. Lions and Packers will rule the division for the next 10 years.

THANK YOU. #1. Guess they need to upgrade that education system in Chitcago. 2ndly, a negative Lions comment from a Bears fan is str8 hate. The difference between us is the Lions are young and building while the Bears are old and overrated

The cowgirls will take him!! He’ll fit right in with Dez Bryant… Jerry Jones would gladly blow a pick to get a CB on the cheap… heck, he might even pay the legal fees…

If Asante Samuel is only going to go for a 4th or so AND is willing to lower his cap number AND is known as a team leader…

How is Talib going to get traded when he is most assuredly a felon AND is know as a hot headed malcontent AND will probably be in jail at some point?

I wouldn’t give up a stick of Doublemint for this clown.

If this were preseason 2011, Al trades Hue Jackson for Talib..straight up! Al Saunders runs the offense.

I got to believe that he would be a steal IF he is acquitted of the gun charge. The courts didn’t do him any favors by moving his trial to June. Maybe its a blessing for the Buc’s should he be acquitted.

REPORT! Raheem Morris convinces Skins to take Talib! LOL!!!

Raheem Morris needs new pants after reading this.

Only problem is, the only team dumb enough to want Talib with his pending trial in June would be the Redskins. Are they dumb enough to trade for him? The guy might not even be available to play this season.

That being said, Bruce Allen IS dumb enough to trade for him. Remember, he’s the same guy who traded a 7th round pick to Denver for Jake Plummer despite the fact that Plummer said he wasn’t going to play for the Bucs.

25 or so teams probably won’t even consider him, but we all know there are usually a couple who will take that risk. He’s also held in higher regard talent wise than he actually is(he’s good but not great, and gets beat deep too often to be considered anywhere near elite status), so hopefully that misconception will play into our favor.

I’d assume we’ll be trying to get that 4th round pick back, but I’d be very pleasantly surprised if we could get that much for him. Maybe the Redskins with Raheem?

Vikings will give you a late 4th round pick for him. Convicts are our specialty.

Vikings could team him with Chris Cook to form the most-likely-to-succeed-as-long-as-they-aren’t-in-jail CB tandem in the league!

Classic, never fails. Every time the is character issue guy on the market, you’ll see the comments well the Bengals and Mike Brown are calling. As a Bengals fan, hate it, but it’s the Bengals own fault

Why would a team trade anything for Talib when Janoris Jenkins will be available?

By: wdcskins

I’d give a 7th round pick. Maybe a 6 and 7, with conditions. He’s definitely talented, and definitely a Pacman Jones-sized headache. Worth the risk. I remember thinking that the Steelers were nuts to accept a 5th round pick for Santonio Holmes, but that trade seemed to work out for everybody (IIRC, the Steelers eventually turned that 5th round pick into Antonio Brown). And maybe with Raheem, (and some love from the judge) Talib could meaningfully contribute.

A deal like the Cowboys made for Pacman would make sense here. Someone gives the Bucs a pick in 2012 with a pick going the other way in 2013 if Talib doesn’t work out. Talib’s new team can cut him if he can’t beat the charges or if he’s a bad influence in the locker room. If he does pan out, they get a very good CB for cheap. No risk.

A team might not want Talib, even under those circumstances because of the message it would send to the rest of the team and that is a legitimate reason not to take him on. That’s a different story from risk, however.

@trefkennedy: “We team Cowboys need to get a 6th round pick to get him”

You are the PERFECT candidate to be the Dallas Cowboys spokesman . Maybe you team cowboys won’t choke in December again this year….

I have to say I think Schiano’s going to be really really good for the Bucs. They needed a no nonsense tough minded coach like him. Players will almost always stick up for turds who are their teammates because of loyalty, but guys like Talib can wear on the good guys like Ronde, etc who try to do the right thing. This team could surprise some people, big time. Maybe not Harbaugh/Niners level, but a 2nd place finish in the division.

You’d think the Bucs would be wary of ANOTHER illiterate scumbag corner with a criminal past.

You’d think somebody would take a shot at him.

The Bucs are really gunning for a trade.

Talib’s got to be nervous at the news, he’s probably sweating bullets.

Thanks, I’ll be here all week, try the veal.
