I would trade next year’s first and a mid rounder this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FootballZombie Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I’m not shipping out a 1st rd pick for a 31 yr old wideout who I have to pay 20 Mil. I would create a package that includes one of our D-linemen as a centerpiece. They are hurting all across the line for a substantial upgrade, so they might be in favor of such a move. Settle/Ion and a 2 would be my highwater mark. That would give them a young lineman that costs very little and a second rounder for JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartyPosse Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Hmmm... an oft injured, rapidly declining receiver making an average of 20 million a season for the next three years? id give up at least 3 first rounders and Chase Young but I don’t know if that would be enough.

Koolblue13 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Thank goodness this is a thread now. Would hate for an idea like this to be lost in the FA thread with all the other people wanting to trade draft picks for aging, injured, expensive players. This absolutely checks every Vinny box there is Big name? Check. Is he over paid? Check Back side of career? Check Doesn't play every game? Check Can we lose draft capital to obtain him? You betcha. Get er done Dan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 No way. He's declining. He's not even as good as McLaurin right now. And you want to offer a 1st rounder for him? Man Cerrato and Allen have done a number on the football IQ of this fanbase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when productive wrs can consistently be had on day 2 of the draft on a rookie contract. We've got 3 day 2 picks this year, and I bet wr is a position they'd love to address with one of those. Add in a curtis samuel via FA, get kelvin harmon back, isaiah wright and cam sims have another year under their belt. Wr will look a lot better, and we can do it much more efficiently. The only way I'd want to be "aggressive" towards wr is if a guy we are really high on falls to us in the 1st, such as chase, smith, maybe waddle etc. But I hope we don't pay big bucks to a top FA, and I really hope we don't trade picks to pay an expensive, declining wr in his 30s.

Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I would trade a first and third for OchoCinco when he is past his prime and will never produce again. Oh wait, that’s what we tried to do but the Bengals saved us from ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justice98 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I dont think much of this idea, but mainly for age and contract reasons. But this declining/often injured stuff isn't really supported by the evidence. He's got 51 catches for 771 yards in 9 games this year. That's pretty productive for a half season. If that's declining, sign me up. And yes, he has missed games this year, but he only missed 4 total in the 6 years prior to this. But even then, he averaged over 100 catches and 1500+ yards the last 2 years. Hell, Terry missed a couple games each of his first two years, when is he gonna get the "often injured" label?

We are at least a season or two away from signing a super star reciever in the sunset of their career. Thats something you do as a cherry on top after a failed couple playoff run.

In an ideal world, I would love to keep all of my D linemen, but I see us having serious issues trying to wrangle the caliber of WR we are looking for. Smith has the potential to retire. I don't see top flight FA WR lining up to play with Allen. Unless we do something major at QB early in the offseason, I think it will be hard to convince a great WR to sign here, even with a large deal waiving in their face. The best you may be able to lure is a Curtis Samuel type, who will know he is capable of eating without a QB via screens and handoffs. He would help, but I know a lot of people are looking for more of a 1A/2 rather than a gadget guy. I would be eyeballing the trade market pretty hard at WR. Jones wont be the first WR made available. I'd be hard pressed to give up a 1, but gotta give up something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
