Julio Jones for our 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th

Maybe Roddy or VJax seeing as they won't be on playoff teams anytime soon.

Re: Trade targets
White, Garcon, and Jackson all make a lot of sense to me. Their teams all have legitimate #1's (or in the Bucs case, a guy who is probably going to be one very soon) and they could all use an extra pick or two to rebuild their rosters.

Re: Trade targets
I've been beating the drum for Pierre Garcon and I still think he's the best target. It's very Anquan Boldin-esque... he's 29 with some prime years left, unhappy with his current team, and doesn't really fit their long term plans. He would be a great scheme fit here as he can replace some of Torrey's vertical production while being a better underneath receiver as well.
His contract is doable as is but also could be reworked if necessary. I would think a 4th and 5th probably gets it done. Make it happen, Ozzie.
Another thing on Garcon... I looked up his contract, and if we were to trade for him, basically 2015 would be an audition year to see if he's worth retaining long-term. We could cut him after this year with no repercussions, and even if we restructured say $3m of his 2015 base into a roster bonus, it would still be virtually no dead money if he's not on the team next year.
Best case scenario is he has a huge year and we can think about extending him from a position of strength. This just makes way too much sense to not happen.Last edited by bmorecareful; 03-25-2015 at 01:46 PM.

Re: Trade targets
I really like Garcon. Concern is money; if Ozzie thinks he can do it, I am all for it. However, if we get a top WR in the first or latest second round of the draft, which is very doable, we might be better off spending our cap $$ on a TE - perhaps Vernon Davis? We could afford him in a 3yr deal and he might really bounce back. Was/is unhappy in SF. Terrapin.
Besides, if we get a quality TE via trade, not one of the dregs left in FA, we don't have to draft a ho-hum TE prospect in a middle round.

Re: Trade targets
I am on the Pierre Garcon train as well. I just wish we didn't have to deal with the Redskins for him. It doesn't make me too optimistic.

Re: Trade targets
What about Mohammed Sanu? Him, Aj Green and Marvin Jones are all 3 going to be FA next year.
Te wise - i don't see alot of options. I really like Dion Sims but with Clay leaving he isn't going anywhere. Delanie Walker would be a nice option if Tenn would part with him. Luke Wilson could be another with Graham going to Seattle.

Re: Trade targets
I'd like that trade, even for one of our 4ths. He only just turned 30, and has size (6' 4" 255 lbs) and 8 years pro experience. While he did have 2 off-years, he does seem durable (missed only one game in 8 seasons).
I guess it might depend on his $alary and the Eagles demands... Bc
