Like I said on the thread in the main forum, this is a good trade IF Eddie and Laettner are the main components of our end of the deal, IF we are not giving up any draft picks (the Philly pick in particular), and IF we are not signing him for more than 3-4 four years (assuming his contract is in the $7-8 million per year range)...
If that's the case, then I say this deal is certainly worth the risk, and might well end up being a steal for us if Damp is capable of replicating his singularly productive, 03-04 contract year rebounding performance.
