If we are stinking it up this year then go ahead and trade Blount by the deadline if we can at least get a 4th.

Blount should be gone by the trade deadline. Bucs will be out of it, some team's RB will go down and they'll be desperate. He's RFA in 2013 and UFA in 2014. Get what you can for him.
If Dotson grades out well at RT and one of the FA T's is a keeper, maybe we get something for Jeremy Trueblood. I suspect most here would do that in 'bout half a heartbeat... Depending on the quality of our depth, we could easily trade LeGarrette Blount. We would have to be sure of Mossis Madu or Michael Smith in the RB rotation though... Preston Parker, depending on Shipley's status. All reports I've seen make it sound like we got a freebee from the Bengals...
I would trade Freeman for Russell Wilson and a third round pick.

Knowing our luck..

I'm sure as hell not down to have Mossis Madu or Michael Smith as our primary backup RB. I think next offseason we'll probably sign a vet RB and draft one to have some depth behind Martin. Then we'll trade Blount.
Wonder what Dom's response was.... http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000055730/article/detroit-lions-gm-reportedly-calling-teams-for-rb-help?module=HP11_headline_stack If they made a decent offer, I'd be listening...
