I don't think the odds are great that we trade Dalton at this point. BUT what works in our favor is that the two teams we're most likely to trade him to, the Pats and Jags, both have franchise players who could be traded (Thuney only rumored as such in NE but Ngakoue is on the block in Jax). So the next shoe(s) to drop in this quest are those teams trading those players to create cap room. No, we're not trading for Ngakoue. Just not a great fit here. But they both need to clear cap room for AD's salary... 17M is a lot.

Norwell and Linder were rumored to be on the block, and this rumor comes from Jason LaCanfora, as recently as early March. I just don't see why we can't trade Dalton for one of them and a pick (because QBs are more valuable than guards). If it creates a hole for the Jags, we can offer them B. Price for a late pick, or whatever. But we probably won't because we don't pay high dollar for interior lineman, I guess.
