The #Lions have talked with multiple teams this morning regarding receivers available for possible trade, according to sources.

With the new found depth at WR, why not turn some of that excess in draft picks (like #4 RB Ivory)?

Would ya? Who? For what?

I would move Lance Moore for a late 3rd/early 4th. Never a speedster, Lance won't be getting quicker at age 31 next year. His cap hit goes over $5mil in 2014 &15. That's from less than $3mil last year. He's been a vital cog but Stills looks like the right younger & cheaper model going forward.

Ingram is just as good at WR as RB

I don't disagree with the move for the right price, but I find it really hard to believe we would move Moore.

Moore is injured. Nobody else we'd trade IMO. Can't tanner be picked up off PS?

As of right now, the Saints have all of their picks (aside from the Harlason 7th). I'd be ok without moving Lance. However, if the price was great, I'd probably do it. However, I still think Lance is a better WR option than Stills, today.

Moving moore would piss off a good bit of fans, but he's definitely replaceable. He's been quiet in the first 3 games, but yet the receiving corp is the least of our issues on offense right about now.

If it was for a player that could start for us this year then I would look at it.
But to give up lance for a future pick I would say no!

I love Lance, but its hard to argue with this. Looking to the draft, we need depth at a lot of positions.

Blues, is there any help available at OL we have the ability to go after?

(Aside from the teams that would trade us a guard for Ingram, amirite?)

Can't trade them a player on the practice squad. Any team can offer a contract on their 53 man roster to any player on another team's practice squad.

I'd rather have Moore on the field at the very least as a decoy rather than not have him on the field. He may be hurt, he may have lost a step, but hs always draws attention and he's never left alone.

Moore so far has been as quiet (or unproductive) as Devery seemed in his last year here. I wouldn't be opposed to adding a draft pick for him.

With Meachem picking up where he left off, and Colston & Jimmy beasting, Stills seeing a lot of action, I could see Toon finally seeing some significant game time if Moore was traded.

Moore left the game in the second half with a wrist injury. Doubt it's serious enough to halt a trade.

Love Moore, but I think that we're going to have to make a tough cut or two next season, so I think getting something for Moore now may be good idea.

Didn't Moore just get a contract extension? Doubt he's on the trading block.

I think Moore is too dynamic and can do too much in our offense to move! Just my $0.02
