if you look at my trades this offseason, i went from Goff + 1.9 to Lamar to maye + Mcbride to Maye + 2 1sts. Essentially going from a 30 year old qb to a 22 year old qb. i also went from a late 1.9 to 2 firsts that could be anything. i feel very good about my moves this offseason. judge them all u want but the proof is in the pudding

Kittle will be 32 next month.
And he gets hurt every year, missing 2-3 games.
Trading him within your division was unwise.
And, you'll need to replace him soon.
The #1's you received in the deal will likely be bottom 6 pick in 26 & 27.
On paper, It looks nice.
In reality, those (2) #1 picks in the deal are fool's gold.
nah i looked at his roster before the trade. mccffaery is dealing with the same injury again as last year. most of the rest of his team is old and I think they might be good this year but i only care about 2027 pick really due to the talent in that class and I dont know if his old players hold up that 2nd year. i was willing to risk it with kittle given his contract extension (under contract until 2029 so i really dont agree that ill have to replace him soon). If I kept mcbride, kittle would have just wasted away on my bench. no one wanted kittle, ive tried to move him many many times this offseason. this was easily the best move for my team, especially because we can only keep 5 bench players every year and I didnt want a 2nd TE taking away one of those spots every time

Why would anyone trade TE McBride within their own division ?
It's a great way to not make the playoffs, especially when you have to play that team 2x
i have kittle. didnt make sense to have both on a roster. divisions change yearly. not focusing on a single year, especially when I think I have a team to win it all still this year with kittle and now 4 1sts (next 2 years) to win in future too
