And what do you expect to get for him, Ryan Pace? A cup of coffee? Maybe? From someone mired in desperation? The best thing you can say about him is that he's cheap.
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".

Go back to leather helmets, NFL.

Anyone?

No way. Oakland needs to throw in a 1st also to get him from us.

What tape has he put together to be worth even a conditional 7th in 2035?

Cowboys might could use him for depth, but I don't know what the Bears would get.

A conditional 7th would be a hell of a deal at this point.

A conditional bag of footballs would be a steal.

It was said Pace trolled for a trade for Watford before releasing him so why not? He's doing his job.

How many of you have tried selling something at a garage sale or on Craigslist before finally donating it at Goodwill?

Hell, if we can even get a 7th round pick we gain something out of the deal no matter how unlikely that is.

I wonder if the Titans would be interested in reuniting Grasu with former Oregon Ducks QB Marcus Mariota. Not sure how much depth they have there though.

If he is on the trading block, it seems to me that his former Oregon head coach and current Bears offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich feels that he can't do the job at the NFL level.
Mark August Helfrich (born October 28, 1973) is an American football coach who currently serves as the offensive coordinator of the Chicago Bears of the National Football League (NFL). He was the head coach for the University of Oregon from 2013 to 2016 before getting fired after a 4–8 finish to the 2016 season.

Yes. The Raids have some scrub named Rodney Hudson, so they're desperate for a Center.

:thumbsup:

odds are, Grasu will end up going the Goodwill route but hopefully maybe someone will bite

Last year or two, Pace/Fox did something really unusual where they shopped some guys, didn't get bites...and then kept them.

I thought in his 1st year here Grasu would form a kickass tandem Long to anchor the right side for years to come. Oh how things have changed.

Don't see that being the case with Grasu though. Not when Kush, Daniels, and Whitehair can all play OC and OG and Grasu can only play OC. If Kush hadn't have gotten injured last preseason I believe Grasu would already be gone.
