[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 855063, member: 7261"] I would be a bit on the fence with an OBJ trade, but not for the reason of giving up a first round pick or really the $15M/year. First round picks are a gamble and often don't pay off, I think the odds are higher that OBJ pays more dividends in 4 years than a #25ish pick. At $15M/year he is $7M less than Julio Jones and $1M more than the Bears pay Allen Robinson. In my opinion, probably a bargain for what you could potentially be getting. Also, with the Giants and Browns being kind enough to pay him all his guarantees, there would be no dead cap hit if for some reason he didn't work out. The Packers have Davante Adams at WR and that is about it. Expecting to improve that with a rookie next year, I wouldn't bank on it. OBJ. who just turned 27 in Nov. has a lot of good football ahead of him. So given all of the above, my only reservation with trading for him would be "does he fit into the Packer organization and will he and Davante be able to share the field". Is OBJ a guy that would thrive in Green Bay or need more of a spot light? I haven't a clue. [/QUOTE]
