IMO Thiggy's being prepped for trade. this is why:

Trading Thigpen will yield them nothing. Certainly nothing more than they gave up to get him. A fourth round pick is not worth it and a perfect example is White. They reached to get him and he is a waste of a pick. Qb's are hard enough to come by so when you have one that seems like he actually might make a decent starter down the road, you should keep him. My opinion of course...

 

Thigpen is worth more to us than what we could get for him in a trade. I think that alone speaks volumes.

 

BY FAR! Love when people sugguest we can get a 5th for this guy or a 7th for that guy, when players usually selected with those picks are nowhere guaranteed to even make the team.

 

If we keep PW and trade Thigpen, I will be very upset. This FO has a track record of not being too smooth when it comes to building a player's trade value, I expect Pat White gets cut or we'll be lucky to get a 7th rounder for the kid.

 

That's assuming we even come close to acquiring a player with that type of talent. Odds are, Thigpen is going to end up better than the draft pick we trade him for because that draft pick may not be so high.

 

the case of getting a starter for thiggy is weak argument Imo. it is case of overthinking, reality says 5th rd picks are depth ajority, & if do start, then usually takes a couple years.

 

Here is a better question

With Arizona close to giving up on Leinart and Anderson looks like he will start, the Cards are close to the top in that division, they won't want Thigpen, but if they asked for Pennington, would you make that trade?

 

Only for the right price and if CP agrees to come back here as a coach once his career is over...
