Also saw my Jays trade Halladay to the Phillies for Kyle the POS Drabek, Travis D'Arnaud whom we never used and traded him away (with Syndergaard) for R.A ******* Dickey and Michael Taylor (who never made it past AAA with us and had only 37 games in the majors, with negative WAR), while Halladay went on to pitch a perfect game, a No Hitter in the playoffs, win the Cy Young first time out and the jays had a shitty rotation for the next 3 years.

And then coming back to the NFL: the Colts never traded Wayne when they had Harrison. The Rams never traded Holt when they had Bruce. Ditto Tampa with Godwin and Evans.

Trade a #1 WR for picks and weaken our offense long term? **** that.

Well, we do draft WR's ten times better than OL. Just saying...

We did draft Tee and Boyd after all. But yeah, keeping the proven player in Tee might be the best thing to do. I just can understand 
someone wanting to invest in the trenches over keeping 2 top WR's. As the Harrison/Wayne scenario is the outlier and I think only to 
us because I think we can still win at least 1 Super Bowl with Chase/Tee.

Will be happy if/when Tee is extended as I know there is a plan in order to keep the trenches strong as well. I trust in this team.

This team is changing history, they will do it again while keeping 2 top WR's.
