If we win, we are still at most 2 games back from the WC so hopefully they will make a big move (1% chance) before the deadline.
Nobody is trading a 1st (or a 2nd or even a 3rd at this point) round pick for 8-9 games (depending on that team's bye week) of a currently injured Tee. He's probably missing this week, which would put him at missing 4 of the 9 games this year and put him on a 644 yard pace this season after a 656 yard 2023. He'd still be owed almost $11m this year, too.
Diontae Johnson was traded for a 5th, while having to give a 6th back.
Amari Cooper was traded for a 3rd and 7th, but having to give a 6th back.
Davante Adams was traded for a 3rd (with an extremely unlikely possibility of it becoming a 2nd) and isn't a rental.
DeAndre Hopkins was traded for a 5th (that could be a 4th if KC makes the SB).
At this point, largely because of the quad injury being his second and current injury of the year, he's likely going to be worth more as a future comp pick than the 5th round pick we'd get for him now. The time to trade him was during the offseason, preferably the 2022-2023 offseason when it was clear he was not going to be extended we could have gotten a 1st and 3rd, but the 2023-2024 offseason where we probably could have gotten a 2nd would have worked too.
