[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 963228, member: 6578"] My buddy asked me the other day if I thought we were continuing to sit at 89 players because of a potential signing or is there a trade coming...I laughed and said we have no capital IMO we would A - want to move or B - it would make sense to move (depth reasons or what not). To which he posed (as always) a question - "Okay, news breaks tomorrow that GB is trading for a WR to come back in return for the player...who is that player?" After clarifying level of WR coming back (a clear WR2 or 1 clearly coming back)... I said Aaron Jones. Aaron is the only player that we arguably have a plug in starting level guy immediately behind him that another team would both want and for at least 2022 be willing to pay his cost....plus he becomes a financial liability after this season anyways. However, most likely the return guy would pose the same similar contract issue perhaps or be a guy projecting but not proven yet to be a WR1...and we've merely added another person in the WR room that is unproven. To which get this he follows up (love our hypo discussions) what if Seahawks call and offer Metcalf for Jones/Lazard in return or Lockett for Jones in return...do you take either deal. Personally the Lockett for Jones makes sense as we instantly have a WR1 proven and room in the room is made by Lazard going to (FA in 2023) - HOWEVER I'd want a 4th or so back as well because Lockett is a contract with very little wiggle for relief until after 2023 and his hit next year is bigger than Jones would be anyways....however arguably a much bigger need position and with Lazard, Cobb and Watkins all not signed after this year worst case you have him and all our now rookies + Amari...not a terrible thing. This trade would hinge on GB's staff and their comfort with Dillon and most importantly someone behind him stepping up. Is Hill healthy and ready, Taylor, Goodson or Baylor showcasing skills...or do we see a vet minimum guy out there to snaggle as insurance cheap for our NOW SB push in 2022. I don't like the Metcalf for Jones trade personally. Honestly I don't see us wanting to pay Metcalf more or similar to what we were willing to pay Adams, and with DK's age he's going to get Terry M type money if nothing else....no thanks. I'll take my chances perhaps even convincing AJ to take a restructure for another year if needed for a 2023 push. [/QUOTE]
