Quote from: Stringer Bell on Today at 06:10:20 PMThis is my issue. You state it as fact that they received trade offers for him and turned them down, when there is zero evidence that it happened.

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on Today at 05:58:24 PMThe season itself was a total nightmare. And so were all the optics involved, whether Barkley was there or not.
Foregoing opportunities to try to better the team's future for the purposes of clinging to a defunct season and keeping up appearances is a typical move by this franchise and one of the reasons it can't pull itself up off the mat.
Quote from: PSUBeirut on Today at 05:43:56 PMTrade deadline was two weeks earlier. I think if they had dealt Saquon when they were 2-6, less than halfway through the season, the optics of them throwing in the towel would have been a nightmare.
Quote from: spiderblue43 on Today at 05:29:05 PMMighty,
When they were 2-8, I thought the same thing-trade Saquon and X. You might have lost the locker room, but you have to think in what's best for the franchise.
So with their defections, they wind up with a 4th rounder in 2025? That was a poor decision, a try to salvage a season approach when it was already lost.
