I picked no but I go back to my philosophy about any player. If the offer is right, you have to evaluate it. Fitz is a blue chipper and it would take a lot to let him go
The crux of the situation is that he has no trade and no franchise tag clauses in his contract. Dealing him is much easier said than done

I voted no. Here's my rationale, you said 2 first rounders but didn't specify what year. I'm assuming you mean 2011, if you do, New England is the only team that currently has 2 picks, theirs, and the Raiders. Right now those are not high first round picks so you might not be able to get a good QB with either pick nor trade both picks to get a higher pick.

I'd trade him for the right price but the price would have to be a high pick or something where I get a starting QB , OT or pass rusher in return AND a #1 pick.

I was thinking the two picks would include one high pick.

So in other words you should have voted yes ;)

Since it said "right offer"

So what color is the sky in this world. :D

If the picks are in the same year right now it's only NE, if it's a first in 2011 and another in 2012 I say what's the point, the world ends in 2012.

Yeah, well in your world, Max Hall is the next Drew Brees.

I wish there was a vote for a yard sale. I could only justify trading Fitz by offering everybody worth a damn and make a lot of moves. Definitely need a new OC if we lose Fitz. Beanie has a new agent, probably going going gone. Might be nice to get some one good for him , instead of letting him just float away like we did with others.

YARD SALE is my vote. (so I voted yes)

No and He!! no! One really boneheaded move is enough, If anything we should trade for Boldin and get him back!

No one would give up 2 1st round picks for Larry Fitzgerald with one year left on his deal. No one would give up a Top 15 pick and a Pro Bowl-caliber QB, OT, or OLB for Larry Fitzgerald with one year left on his deal.

You could get maybe a #1 and a starter with a year left on his contract. That's nowhere near enough.

Hey, feel free to start you own poll. The question was right offer vs. no, under no circumstances.

Don't forget about the stupid self promotional 3rd option. ;)

I say no way.

If I have to suffer through another decade of losing then I at least want Larry to suffer through it with me also. Misery loves company!

Third option on this poll is dumb. It doesnt lock anyone into a position.

That would be an emphatic no.

If the Cardinals were better at drafting I would at least entertain it.

It is bad enough when they pick Levi Brown over AP, or trade down and waste an oppourtunity at Terrell Suggs.

But it would be compounded if the pick also was obtained by giving away a high potential HOF WR.

Yes if that is what it takes to get a QB in the draft or a viable NFL veteran who is good enough to be built around. Look at the Rams and Bradford. They have nobody at WR and may win the division after being a doormat. QB = winning No QB = Doormat.

Bradford has been great considering the lack of support he has. However I think the Rams success has more to do with how thier defense has been playing. Spags has that defense playing pretty well.

If we trade him for extra picks, I would like to see us draft to get an elite Offensive Line or an elite Defensive Line. If we had either of those, then our QB wouldn't matter as much.

Boldin would make no difference to this team.

I would rather have a team full of Boldins than anything else. This team is losing its heart and thats one thing that Boldin has. It's like having a team full of Larry Centers. I know the team would at least play for 60 minutes.

I only own 2 jersey's: Tillman and Fitz. So my appreciation for Larry should never be questioned. However, if we could trade Fitz and snag a QBOF and a true edge pass rushing threat of Freeney type skills and production, I'd do it...
