Brandon Flowers: Would you trade? (Caution: LNBS)

***Late Night Bullshit Alert***

Calm down, it's not going to happen. But some people I know were discussing Flowers in regards to declining skills, injuries and size. Personally, I think he'll rebound after an off-season of recuperation. He just turned 28. That said, he has seemed to slow down a bit after 6 years in the league.

So here's the thing: While the Chiefs would save overall on the cap if he was traded, they'd eat quite a bit of dead money. (See chart below.) What would it take for you to trade Flowers? For example, look at the Jets. They are hot for a starting CB & have the 18th overall pick. Would you trade Flowers for that pick? Maybe their 1st & 4th? What would it take for you to trade Flowers to another team? Personally, I'd want a lot. That's a boatload of dead money and Flowers is still a starting corner. I'd consider a first round pick this year (20th or earlier) & a third this year (or second next year). With the new rookie salary cap, draft picks are that much more valuable. What say you, gentle CP reader?

Why? The writing is on the wall for him next year. He's likely gone. He's restructured once already last offseason and I don't see the point in pushing money ahead with him if he's going to be gone anyway.

So not only would we be weak at safety, we'd be weak at cb as well. Hell, why don't we just trade the whole secondary for a bunch of 6th round picks?

I like it, but only if we draft offensive linemen in the 1st, 3rd, and 6th.

I'd take a 2nd for him.

Anything less than that, and I'd honestly just prefer we play him for a year and cut him in 2015 if he won't agree to a pay cut.

It wouldn't take me much because he's going to be cut after this season.

This. Everyone is expecting a down year anyway. I'd rather get what we can for him and get ready for when Brokeneck isn't in our ****ing division.

I'd trade a third for him honestly. The Chiefs have got in the habit lately of giving huge contracts to players who are just "pretty good". With the injuries Flowers sustains every season he isn't worth his contract.

Anyone that wouldn't take the 18th pick for Flowers would be stupid. Flowers is not worth that especially with his contract.
I would say getting the 18th pick and saving 3 mil on the cap would be a great move.

If we could get the 18th overall and save 3 mil in cap space this year knowing that next year we get nothing, that move should be made. With the 18th pick we could get one of the top two CBs in this draft and have 3 mil to sign a decent vet for the OLine so we don't have to use a high pick on it this year.
