To the posters saying that jets fans are over valuing trouba....
As a jets fan myself...
If trouba were on another team and willing to come here and extend long term, the only assets that we have that would be off the table in a trade for that to happen would be scheif, Morrisey, and *maybe* Laine. Any other asset (Conner, Ehlers, even a high first round pick if we had one) would be in play in some sort of combo.
I'd even think of doing high first, veselainen (our top f prospect) AND niku ( d pour toprospect) to have trouba here long term.
I know I don't speak for all jets fans, but it might give you guys some insight into why we can't understand why Detroit fans wound't give up #6 and velano or Philly fans not wanting to give up #11 and frost/sanheim
If you have to give up a couple of prime pieces (especially futures) to get a top pairing RHD for 7 years with size, a mean streak, who can play the pp and pk and put up 40-50 pts a year, you do it.
Of course all this depends on a contract being in place prior to a trade
