NBA has exciting trades especially at deadline at least, but their draft pick trading is the hardest to fucking follow lol
yeah I feel NBA drafting is much worse than any other league, from what I remember hearing and reading, anything past 1st round is pretty useless. and I think this is the league where u can defer a pick like 25 fucking years lol

Plus its better to get something for these players that are on an expiring contract who probably aren't going to resign for your team in the offseason. Which is why I really hope the Panthers deal Diontae (besides the fact that he's lazy and has a bad attitude, lol) because no way he's coming back next year.
that makes sense too. I am just so used to NHL I guess where you cannot cut players and you have to honor contracts or get a huge penalty on your cap. These kind of trades do happen in NHL too but its rare a top end player gets traded for a bag of pucks. I guess idk how good Hopkins is in 2024 either, footballers decline way faster than hockey players

They'd have to finish paying guarantees in that case too so def
ok so there is some downsides at least to cutting, thats good

In the NBA yeah most 2nd rounders are worthless but occasionally you get a gem like Nikola Jokic.

The trade deadline is one of the most exciting times in all of sports though imo

So, the Titans basically trade him for a pick that's meaningless?

Not essentially.

If they scout correctly, any pick can be a good pick.

Teams passed over Tom Brady 199 times before he got drafted.

I would say the other thing to consider is that there's more parity between players in the NFL in comparison to other leagues only because there's so many players all over the US.

A 1-3 rounder is in essence a player you want starting on your team/future starter, and contracts do play a big role in whether one wants to give up one of those first 3 picks for a player. Teams with bad contracts will look to just offload and take the cap hit for the best deal they can get, sometimes it's not what they want, but what's best at the time.

And then there's the Browns who pulled off a trade worse than Hershel Walker and are suffering for it.

Holy shit…

The Chiefs are sending a conditional fourth round pick to the Titans in exchange for Deandre Hopkins

:tripsdead:

Wtf man. My fellow Boricua Pacheco is coming back soon too so they have a 2 headed Monster at the Running back position coming.

I'm hearing reports Chigoziem Okonkwo could be a on the move too. Crosby and Myles anyone think either of those guys get traded by next Week? I would love to have either guy especially Myles.

At least there's a positive aspect of the trade. I just hope the organization's wise in making the right pick for whatever position is important in that round.
