san diedo/san fran trade?

[TheBostonBomber]

If sandiego gets the first for rivers would they be intrested in trading one of their picks for surtain? If so, what pick do u think?

P.S San diego could be scary this upcoming season if they draft well.

It's not going to happen because trading Rivers would be a 14 million dollar hit against the cap and they'd have to sign Brees to a long term deal. I haven't thought about SD trading for Surtain but seems like with Surtains value right now on the market anything better than a 3rd would be a HUGE surprise. I think San Diego will trade up for Braylon, but they won't be giving up Phillip Rivers.

That would be awesome, but not probable.

nah his deal isnt like that...it wouldnt be that big of a cap the reason they wont trade him is cause thats martys choice for qb...Drew Brees will be traded next season for a 1st round pick when he has these stats

4200 yards
66% completion ratio
34 tds passes
6 ints

They announced on NFL Network last night that the reason the trade wasn't going to happen was because trading Rivers would be a cap hit of 14 million, I wouldn't have believed it myself if I didn't here it. Adam Schefter reported it.

Well Mort said today on ESPn that the trade WONT happen. Basiclly because SD dosent want to give him up right now. They want to play out next year first. But although Mort said that it aint gonna happen, that dosen't mean it wont. But I wouldn't count on it if i were you.

brees will be a FA after next year and teams might not be willing to trade for brees when they'll know they cant keep him and rivers forever

Rivers just received his 6.6mil option bonus on March 10th which means the cap hit for trading WOULD be high. Well over 10Million. If he had been traded before the 10th the cap hit would have been about half of that.

The Chargers need to do something with Brees. They can't keep paying the QB position $20 million and reasonablely expect to upgrade the rest of their 53 man roster.

Clayton this morning said the same thing. This trade is compeletly false.
