Bucs and Titans both are looking to trade their picks. Would we be interested? and how much would you give up? and What players are you looking for at the top? I would trade 2nd, 4th, and Swearinger to move up. (no 3rd's.) Players I would target WR: DGB, Strong LB: Gregory confused, Harold, Kendricks. SS: Collins. I don't see anyone else that I like that I would want to move up for.
As I posted in the other thread: I think we will get Denzel Perryman in the second round and Chris Conley in the third. Conley just screams Texans to me. He's a quick, stretch type receiver, great character guy. Some may say he's a reach in the third - I think he's a steal there.
Not a smart decision to trade Joseph. IMO. I hope the rumors are not true. I understand the team has a lot of depth now but one year with a veteran is a good safety net for the rookie.
That's what I was thinking but maybe they heard the texans were looking at a trade and the chargers got scared of someone leapfrogging them to get Gordon.
I still consider Kareem as young and not much of a teacher/mentor type. He could develop into one but Joseph has been taking the young corners under his wing the past couple of years. Even though the gap is much smaller, I still like Joseph's skills to Jacksons.
Ummm. KJ has outplayed JJ the last couple of years. I haven't read anything about JJ being a mentor to younger CBs, either. Maybe I missed that. Not saying I want to see JJ gone, but KJ has been our best CB for awhile now.
I disagree about KJax outplaying JJo. Joseph had injuries and when he was healthy he was still guarding the best receivers. Llike I said the gap is close and moving forward Jackson is the way to go. Joseph is obviously slowing down. I've heard interviews with the young CBs here's one I pulled up with a quick google search http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12027279/houston-texans-jumal-rolle-driven-mom-memory-ill-son
Not disagreeing with you entirely, but I saw KJ as our best cover corner regardless. JJ was getting beat consistently over the past 2 years. I hope that was mostly due to playing through injuries, but most likely due to age. Again, I don't want to see JJ traded, but will not be too concerned if it happens and nets us a 5th rounder or so, or allows us to move up in the 2nd or 3rd to grab a stud WR.
Gregory would be cool but I wouldn't trade up for him. If he somehow lasts all the way to 52 then hell yes.
