Ok pls explain 2nd round for 8th year veteran with 75 speed and acceleration…average punish the WR and poor B&R

Even if he was good he would be 1-2 year rental

This is ill-advised for Tennessee.

From my perspective, Sandlin was someone I was looking to keep whilst younger CBs developed, so had value for my squad.

I've have been looking for a late 3rd/4th. Sending a 5th helped.

I did not instigate the trade.

You got top 40 pick for average 1-2 year rental player …..Trade value is based on player value in league not what he meant to your team

Similar trade made by us has been labeled as fleecing by you but yet you feel justified on this trade …..there is difference between 3rd/4th Fs top 40 picks and paying extra 5 does not make it balanced trade .

Lions got a lot for player h who will retire in 2 season

All trade values are relative to team needs.

Which is why any trades I instigate tend to be offloading - mostly for lower round picks. I trade to play the game, not harvest endless picks just to fail to achieve.

I'm more than happy to reverse the trade if Tennessee wish to do so.

EDIT: Having reflected on Seth's view, since I respect him, I accept my original view was on balance wrong; I've offered a balance trade - 2nd and 5ths get swapped back, so becomes Sandlin for a 4th.

This will be never ending debate but truth is it’s bad trade for Titan ……but my goal was never to reverse it so will move on

Of course you'd not want it corrected; no correction feeds into your passive-aggressive victim complex, ignoring the reality your trading practices have been questioned repeatedly, indicating a higher volume of such trades.

Tennessee heave rejected my offer of trading the 2nd and 5th back, with him providing a 4th for Sandlin.

Just in case some want to complain again.
