Realistic high potential trade targets

[solmon]

I have been thinking about realistic trade targets for all positions as I start to plan out my CFM. Would love to get a discussion going on **realistic trade targets. I typically think about this as someone who is not starting and is below 80 OVR (Maybe even 75 and below this year). Someone who could blossom if given the opportunity, but not someone that a team clearly would not currently trade.

Example: ILB Chris Kirksey (Browns)

Wouldn't it be easiest to go through rosters and see which players have the ratings you're looking for, and trade for them?

uhh sure, but this is a forum where people discuss things..many players meet rating criteria, but not all meet the realistic trade scenario.

I understand what a forum is, but it's an awfully specific thing you're looking to do. The theory of "Realistic" will vary based on each user. It's not like a sleeper thread or something very general. You're looking for linebackers who are good players, but "realistic" trade peices. Just see who you like, determine their value, and determine who can be had in your realm of realism.

Some people think all first and 2nd round picks aren't realistic trade peices. Some people thing everyone who isn't a high caliber QB is a realistic trade peice. Some people think trading for player with certain overall and under and realistic.

It's based on your theory of realistic.

Ronald Leary(Cowboys) and Josh McCown(Browns) come to mind right away

Leary a perfect example, thanks! McCown too, but I could see CLE trying keep him as RGIII insurance

Titans WR Justin Hunter, he's on the outside looking in. Titans also have a few RBs like Sankey and Cobb. some of these guys could be roster cuts as well.
