Motor City / Portland Trade

[Clay]

Motor City Gets:

Bubba Weagle (C)


Portland Gets:

4th Round Pick -- 2009
6th Round Pick -- 2010
7th Round Pick -- 2010

With the loss of RT Bryant Pasquarella for the season in Week 1, Motor City adds a Vet to the line. Experts believe Weagle will slide into the LG position in Detroit, with the versatile CJ Foreman sliding over to Right Tackle for the remainder of the season.

"We're not happy about spending this many draft picks for one player, however getting a player of Bubba's stature is what this team is about. We're planning on making a run for the Championship this season. Bubba can help us get their."

I agree.

I have a solid backup at center who has been waiting to get his chance, 34/51. Also, I drafted a center in the 6th, 21/50, making Weagle expendable.

Oh, and the fact that I am not going to come close to sniffing the playoffs.
