    I'm starting to think we should trade Lynch....

    I know i'll get lambasted for this... but i'm seriously thinking that maybe we should commit to Jackson make Lynch the 2nd RB and then trade him either this year or in the offseason.

    He's had 2 arrests. He's one more from a very long suspension.

    meanwhile Jackson looks like he could be a star in the making.

    I can't recall 2 games where Marshawn looked as good as Jackson has.

    We still have lots of needs, and i'm not sure we can afford to keep a 2 back system like many other teams when we could get so much for Lynch and fill OTHER needs.

    I dunno... I say keep Jackson playing all year and if he's as good as it seems make the move this coming offseason.. probably get another 1st or more.

      Because I'm not blinded by liking a player.

      He's a good RB, but if Jackson could be better, then take advantage of a strength and make a move to address bigger needs... if we were set at otter positions then I'd say great... 2 back system.. but we aren't.


      It's a business.

        he doesn't deserve to be blasted at all. I see his point but it's smart to keep both in case of injury

          A few people on this site have been saying to trade Lynch ever since last season....like TDummy and myself.

          Jackson while not only being the better player of the two is a better fit for the offense we run.

            I don't have a problem trading him but I don't think we'd get a first for him.

              Smart plan... that is, until Fred Jackson gets injured.

              Especially with a team like ours, you need 2 good RBs.

              Unless some team is offering a 1st round pick for Lynch (very doubtful), you can't trade him away.

                At the end of last season i would have said vehemently "hell no".

                Now i'm not so sure....Freddy Jax has been outstanding.

                i think we need Lynch for depth though.

                    I'm not saying it's a great idea.... but I'm not sure Lynch is effective as a platoon back.. he needs to wear down D's.

                    Like I said... maybe draft a guy in the middle rounds next year or sign a solid vet backup... I'd not trade lynch without having some insurance besides Omon.


                    I'm not SURE we'd get a first... but Isn't Lynch worth as much as Roy Williams?

                      Why trade him when we can keep both???

                        Won't happen and would not make sense to do it. Jackson is great and I like him a lot, but he is 28...you don't trade a young talent and then have to draft another in a year or two. Of course, I may pursuaded if we could get a high enough pick.

                          I am leaning towards agreeing... UNTIL the end of this season when you can add another RB as a backup and max out on Lynch.

                          remember... 2 arrests and 1 more is a year out i bet.

                            Why trade Lynch? Just why? I don't get it.

                              Roy Williams was not worth a first. Jerry Jones was stupid. I think we'd get a 2nd for Lynch.
