Players with Trade Value, Matt Moore?

Now I'm not saying we should trade Moore but his value could be at his highest currently. I actually think he did a great job last year and wasnt given much credit for his performances. The FO claim to want depth but would they turn down a decent offer?

I wouldn't trade him unless we got an offer of a 3rd round pick or equivalent but got me thinking of who we have on the roster who maybe expendable or available.

I suppose it would all be about value but some players have large contracts who the FO may want to shift to sign Long/Wake to new deals.

Personally, I see Moore having another season as starter, and on that basis there's no reason why his stock shouldn't rise further.

I think he has the most value to us as a buffer for Tannehill, who should not be starting yet. If we traded Moore, then we would need to bring in a new starter or else start Garrard. I don't see much logic in that.

I'm torn as to what the best strategy would be. Throwing Tannehill into the fire might be too much but then again Moore might not fit in our offense and I hate Garrard.

With the Browns drafting Weeden in the 1st round, I think virtually every team in the league now has 'answered' the QB question meaning that trading for Moore would be to acquire a back-up. I'd rather have Moore in Miami than another late-rounder considering that Tannehill is going to need grooming. Moore may in fact be our best option as a starter going into the season anyhow. I agree with Deets in regard to Garrard.

I'm not sure anyone else on the offense is expandable. Bush & Long have appreciable value but are needed. Defensively, no one of significance is expendable at this point.

I don't want to trade Matt Moore yet. In the event of a three-way camp battle between Moore, Garrard, and Tannehill I see Moore easily winning out and being our starter on Day 1. With the way he played last year, there is really no reason for us not to give him a shot... it's not like anyone else is going to give us value for our garbage, anyway.

For a team that has been as QB starved as we are, my instincts say to not trade someone who is either a solid starter or an excellent backup. But if the handwriting is on the wall with Tannehill waiting to start, Moore almost certainly will bolt for a chance to start. And if that's the case, we would be better off trading him for something as opposed to getting nothing when he leaves.

I would trade Jake Long. He is going to have some issues in this system if they pass as much as I think.

I'd trade Moore or Garrard right before the trade deadline if there is a demand.
I think they moved it back this year.

Personally, I think this new offensive blocking scheme will help save Long's career. The old power blocking scheme was tearing up his shoulders. Now he won't have to power block any more and I think the injuries will go way down.
