Does this make it official? 2018 will be about building Wades D. Did not see this coming and the return is not what I would expect, but it does help the cap situation for the near future.
Ogletree traded to Giants

I liked Alec and the player he had potential to be, but I'll say that I won't miss being consistently frustrated with his inconsistent technique.
wow! already lot of reactions of his partners on twitter

Holy Shitballs!!! So much for a minor upgrade of the defense. This is a going to be a complete overhaul. Hope they can get it all done this off-season!!!
I don't understand this. Why sign him if you'e gonna trade him?
It sucks to lose a player like Tree. But our current and now former LB's were never a good fit for Wade's D. Honestly I'm not too shocked.
well having him locked up long term only helps his trade value, but Id imagine trading him this offseason wasnt necessarily the plan when they gave him the extension. speaking of which kinda feel bad for him signing it and then getting traded so soon. really missed out on FA big time
Ogletree had a $7 million roster bonus due on March 16. If I understand the contract stuff correctly, there is no dead money applied tot he cap for this trade.

Yikes, I hope this doesn't fuck up the locker room atmosphere based on TruJo, Gurley, and Cooper's responses.

Scheme fit. Our defense played well despite a lot of players not being a scheme fit, so as Wade gets his defense in place, it should be better.

Nah, Wade Phillips has no plan. He's just going to get a few UDFA and see what kind of defense he gets. SMH
Trade chip .got a fourth and a sixth and the experiment didn't work out .this is almost too many changes though. Can defenses in transition be contenders? Our offense managed to do it at least
Wow, I was actually thinking earlier today that maybe they get rid of Barron and Ogletree. And now the one we assumed would stay is gone. This is an insane offseason!
