Logan Mankins  has made it abundantly clear that he doesn't want to be a Patriot anymore. Assuming the Patriots would be interested in a trade, what would you give up to see him Green and Gold?

Here is the problem with Mankins.. the Pats reportedly offered 7mil/yr over 5 years... and apparently that pissed this guy off?

Granted we don't know the salary structure.. but still that is tackle type money.

I agree, damn fine player.. just leery of this contract demands and expectations.

What would I give up for him? If you could answer the above reasonably.. I would probably ante up and secure his services and boot the unstable Colledge...

Mankins, Lang, Newhouse, Spitz, Sitton give us lots of options and depth inside.. actually we could put Lang exclusively at tackle and allow him to properly develop out there.

not trying to be debbie downer here, but this just reminds me of [insert disgruntled player here] that we read about every month...e.g. Shawne Merriman.

It'd be nice, don't get me wrong, and we might as well discuss something in June, but I just don't see this going anywhere...as pack93 just said, the guy turned down $7 mil per year...doesn't sound like packer people that Ted wants.

I agree. We have more and better guards than most teams, so why would WE be the team willing to give the most in trade to the Pats and the team willing to give him a massive contract that the Pats don't think he's worth?

Assuming they give in and trade him, it will be to a team that really needs interior linemen badly. I know some people think we have the super-most-ultra-OMG-worstest OL in the history of the universe, but there are teams that need guards much worse than GB.

I think that's the key point gla_lambeau...would WE be the team to make the necessary move?

More often than not IF trades like this happen, it seems to be with some desparate or at least knee-jerk response team, and the packers are the antithesis of those.

hey, Revis is disgruntled too...maybe we can get him? [/sarcasm]

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

I dunno. It doesn't seem to be about the money for him. Seems to me he's genuinely pissed at them for something.

Just a thought.

Every year when I ask for free agency help on the OL, people say that the reasons GB isn't more active in free agency with the OL is that (a) there isn't anyone available worth anything; (b) even if there is someone available, they are old and on the way downhill; and (c) they're too expensive.

Well, (c) may still apply to Mankins But (a) and (b) certainly don't.

I don't for a minute believe Mankins is available. But if he were, Ted should be after him big time.

And, though this is probably just me, be willing to overpay to get him.

Maybe we could trade Colledge to them and also maybe a 2nd round draft pick?

Or maybe they'll just go for the draft pick.
