Quote:If they had no plans of keeping Monroe, why didn't they trade him during that draft?

 

 

You really don't know jack squat about this team you're supposedly a fan of.

 

Please, if you know nothing... just stop typing.

 

About the Monroe trade...

<p style="margin-left:40px;">Q: How important has the relationship been in those conversations - you having a relationship with the GM?

<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">D: Yeah, very important. In fact, the Eugene Monroe trade happened because I have a good relationship with the people in Baltimore. So sometimes when you're at a school, visiting, or you're just calling to see how they're family's doing, and then all of a sudden - 'hey, did you have any thoughts about coming up to 3?' 'What would it take?' and then we talk about that. It helps, but I think as we get into the beginning of next week and closer to the draft, teams that have real interest in trading up, we'll reach out.

 

You can take from that, that there wasn't interest in Monroe around the league until it came up in conversation with Baltimore.

 

You're going to have difficulty moving a player when there's little or no interest around the league.  Dave's always willing to listen, were there any serious offers.  Listening being something you wouldn't understand.
