Trade Frow or DA?

A lot of fans justifiably think Frow will be traded. Most likely we’d get a 3rd or 4th round pick and clear about $13m in cap space for this season. If we traded DA, however, we’d likely return a first or second round draft pick (maybe more) and clear $14m of space this year and $24m of space next year. I also think Jimmy will be better off and the offense will be better off spreading the ball around more, using Myers, Renfrow, Tucker, the tight ends, and the backs. I think that’s where Jimmy and this offense can shine. Finally, DA is on the wrong side of 30 and he has been making waves already this offseason with his comments about not being on the same page as the Raiders and about wanting Jimmy to conform. Yes, he said he wants to help us win a SB, too. I’m not a big fan of these comments and I think it’s likely he continues some of his complaining during the season if and when there are struggles. So, it may not be popular, but I’m a proponent of moving DA and taking more of a team first approach. I’m also a proponent of a straight up trade for Quinnen Williams, as pdxsilverguy bright up in another fanpost. Thoughts? Rrrrraaaaiiiiddddeeeerrrrrssssss!!!
