The only thing that kinda raised my antenna all along on this being a possibility is Verderame has taken the stance they need to keep Smith at all costs, and as plugged in as he is, makes me wonder if he also heard that was their intent. [Reply]

Said this before but Verderame has reported several times, including right before the season opener last year, that Veach was trying his best to get a deal done with Trey last summer and they were fairly close.
Made it seem like Trey wanted to hold off bc he could get more money (shocker he did).
Also mentioned that they tried to speak to Bolton and he didn’t want to do a deal. [Reply]
This would be an epically dumb decision for a lot of reasons.
We would be sacrificing other things for this move. DON'T DO IT VEACH! We have a couple of young tackles on the roster right now that can fill in as capable RG's.
In the last 2 years we've spent two Day 2 (Kingsley & Wanya) picks on O-Lineman. It's time for one of these guys to step up and take a starting job. And RG being open is the perfect opportunity.
Hopefully this is just a false flag. I mean, I'm sure they are 'talking' to Trey and his agent, but if the conversation is approaching $22 mil.+ per then talking is where it needs to stay. [Reply]
Yeah I guess I'll just believe it when I see it, not even gonna share this reporting. Like I said, Dianna has never once been right about us. It's as if they leak false info to her. [Reply]

Signing a LT in FA wouldn’t be a problem
Joe can't come back on a $27M hit, so something's gonna have to give there if we are signing two other starters on the OL [Reply]
