Eagles working to trade TO?

[qwert246]

Smart money is now on Washington. The taterskins are the favorite.

I don't see it.  They are probably using their reputation to drive up the price if Dallas wants him.

I don't care how much revenge you guys want on him, I'm dealing him to an AFC team if I'm Reid...

I agree to some extent, but if 'teams' are interested it will help raise his value. Like if Denver is offering X and Dallas or Wash. is offering X ( with a little more ) you trade him to Denver.

its not what the other teams are offering the eagles its what they are offering TO

if denver is offering a 3rd to the birds but a small incentive laden contract to TO and the skins are offering a 5th to the birds and a bunch of guaranteed dollars to TO what do you think TO will do...he will tell the eagles and broncos im not playing in denever so dont even bothing making the trade...teams are wary of aquiring a  happy TO they certainly arent going to give up something for a pissed off TO

IGY... the Eagles have granted T.O. permission to seek a trade but he is STILL their property.

If someone comes along and blows the Eagles minds with a trade offer, he's going there no questions asked.

You realize that, right?  Well, maybe not considering you believe that T.O. is holding all the cards here.  He simply isn't.  Not until the second the Eagles release him, he's not.

San Fran was in the same situation before and TO got what he wanted

he absolutely is holding the cards because no matter what happens he gets released on march first...thats the key here

you said it yourself...HES going out seeking a trade...meaning hes looking for the highest bidder...do you really think a team will blow the eagles away with an offer for a player who is a time bomb to begin with that also doesnt want to play for them

no team is giving up anything for TO without having contract terms in place..and those terms are dictated by TO and the team he is negotiating with...not by the eagles

the deadline is not march 1st.

the bonus isnt due until at least march 6...maybe later, but no later than march 15.

the birds thought ahead with this, and they wouldnt have put themselves in a spot to have to had made a decision is a mere few hours. free agency starts march 2. which if the birds wait, the big names could be snatched up before the 6th, making a team want to give up more for him.

The Eagles are in full control. The Eagles are the one doing the trading. If a team wants to trade for TO and the Eagles agree, then TO becomes that team's property. If the Eagles cut TO then TO holds all the cards, but as long as he remains property of the Eagles, the Eagles hold all the cards.

Did TO brush his teeth up and down today?

wrong again....do you know what all these meetings are with TO and the teams hes visiting...they are contract negotiations...TO is looking for the team that will pay him the most...and the team that will do that is whos going to get him...again the eagles are not gonna trade him to a team where he hasnt already worked out the numbers on a new deal....unless the eagles are keeping open the option of paying his roster bonus and keeping him then TO might as well be a free agent right now...yes the eagles can still get something for him but they have almost no say in where he goes

the question is simply this: do you believe there is a team out there will give up something for TO if he says hes not going to play for them?

We don't know if they are contract negotiations yet. They could be see and hear type of meetings.
