We know that the Jets might be hurting at running back if Curtis Martin can't come back and play. Buffalo is pretty deep at RB. Gates looks like he might beat out A-train for the back-up spot even though A-traibn has also had a pretty good camp. So here's the question. Is there anything that could make you consider a trade with the Jets, a division rival that looks like they don't have much chance to be competitive in the division this year? Do the Jets have a player you would want in a trade? Surely not the cornerback the Jets offered Cleveland in the now voided Lee Suggs trade. Maybe depth at offensive line? Defensive line?
A-train as trade bait?

Re: A-train as trade bait?
4th on the depth chart is a good place for Shaud.
Why would we help out a division rival?
They'll pick up someone else's cut (maybe even one of ours) and that's good for us.

Re: A-train as trade bait?
You guys are acting like we have Ladanian Tomlinson on our hands.
We could barely get anything(if anything) and even if we did they're not that good that they're gonna make a difference on how the Jets would finish the season.
Every other team has junk for backup RB's too. Just because it's the Bills junk doesn't make them any better.

Re: A-train as trade bait?
um.. the jets were just willing to give up former first round pick, derrick straight, for lee friggen suggs.. mr. always hurt, never done anything, 4th round pick suggs..
the jets are very desperate.. if you think they wouldnt be interested in a guy like thomas, your nuts. i bet you 100$ that they if he was cut right now, they would pick him up immediately.
if atrain is going to be our 3rd running back, he serves no purpose for us.. i just as soon see us trade him to the jets for a player we could use (i dont know if they have any) then see us cut him.. i would be just as happy to see us keep shaud and let atrain go if we could get something for him, because i am not as down on the guy as some here are."All hockey players are bilingual.

I didn't say they wouldn't have any interest in all. It's that some was acting like we have something special on our hands that no other team could give them. Thomas has averaged about 2.5 yards a carry over the last 2 years and 3 teams in that span.
Other teams have better options then him as their backup. He isn't anything special.

Re: A-train as trade bait?
as a jets fan, no i wouldnt want a-train............. mainly because of the bad blood that week 3 might have.....
strait is a decent CB but you guys have enough depth there
as far as DL we had some depth but we've had one DL go on the IR, and another quit the team....... OL-wise..... thats a laughable statement..
a-train or shaud will be the last cut
