Message: <blockquote data-quote="tynimiller" data-source="post: 1092944" data-attributes="member: 6578">Yeah, it's been a concept of internal discussions I can confirm and that is the future of Reed for sure. Drafting Golden and Savion, who both have massive overlap with their games to Reed drew stronger speculation on Reed's future than Doubs for me even. In truth I think if we see it announced that Doubs and Green Bay came to a one year or even multi-year deal that it is shortly followed by the news that Reed is likely on the block or a trade deal was already in the works and will be executed. Now a foolish fan is going to hear this and read this and attack the concept or myself that we are idiots do you not understand Reed has been our leading receiver in yards twice and is a really good weapon....YES, this is all understood. Sometimes roster decisions have to be looked at beyond the short sighted immediateness and from a what is best for the team overall. This team is firmly in a window to push for a Super Bowl, and yet given the high dollar contracts in place (Love, Parsons, Tom, McKinney) and few big ones to come (Kraft, Watson...Evan Williams...Wyatt)....trying to secure young guys to fill the depth and fill roles eventually on rookie deals is a massively important to sustaining that window as long as possible. Trading a guy like Reed would suck...however even if say we don't sign Doubs as hinted at above...say he is gone. Wicks and Golden both are the clear candidates to fill that outside receiver role...but even slot work you have Golden, Savion and Bo Melton to a lesser degree ALL of whom have experience and shown promise. MLF used Savion and Golden in many of the same ways he used Reed when Reed was a weapon for us. Reed is also likely the guy with a contract ending that has the HIGHEST trade value with the least team impact...Now I've heard folks say they think he'd get us a 2nd round pick....and maybe...but I think more likely is you nab a 3rd and like a 5th for him or maybe a clean 3rd but then swap a 4th for our 5th as well or something like that.</blockquote>
