all this surtain trade talk is making me sick all we are getting offerd is a 4th wtf if we trade him for anything less than a 2nd i will be sick! i would rather trade him for a player than a 4th round pick, is there anyway we can keep him? he is the best player on our team imo, is there anything we can do?
 
Yes we can keep him if he redoes his contract for just room and board and free food at our training facility.

His contract amount is too high and he wants the money plus we have Will Poole who will be excel.
 
It can be done. Its amazing how FO people can work the cap. Wed be tight for cash, but we could always just try and trade him again next year after we redue his deal.
 
If we don't get a second round pick for him, why not just franchise him at the end of the year?

The one caviat is.....Surtain has to agree to redo his contract. Do you think he's going to give up 7-8million this year for the sake of the team??

Unlikely.....

dude, I just can not give up a PS, pro bowler, for a 4th rounder on prinicipal alone. I would rather try and sign him next year. See what we can do with the contracts that are currently on the team. Maybe with some restructuring, we can keep him. But for a 4th round pick, that would mean that the Aj feely trade cost us a second rounder, and surtain (because the reason why we are trading his becasue he is expensive but is also because we need picks). Surtain + second rounder=Aj Feely + 4th rounder.
 
I don't think Pat would redo his deal(I wouldn't) this year knowing that he most likely won't be after this year. Saban might have to just take what he can get for Surtain(I do love the guy)cause I think we need the cap room for the draftees.Btw don't think KC isn't trying to screw us knowing the position we are in.JMO.
