By drafting more OL?
Was just referring to advantage of unloading a problematic, semi-expensive veteran for a younger draftee with future potential.

They need to draft Blackmon. That is the only way they make up for this...
b/t fellas good luck trading up from #8 to #5 for a 3rd rounder and another late pick..i doubt you could move up to #7 for that...like no chance
That doesn't make up for it IMO. The position wasn't a priority need before.They need to draft Blackmon. That is the only way they make up for this...
chill out people, were getting laurent robinson, everything will be just fine
Its 3 spots. I think it can be done for a similar price if I recall from previous drafts.
They had been working on this since the combine, had nothing to do with the incident specifically which makes things worse. How did Ireland work on this for over a month yet not have a plan in place for a #1 WR... Especially while courting Manning, Flynn etc....

I'd actually respect the trade a little more if they did it because of the incident. If they were working on a trade before hand, that means they were prepared to create yet another void in our roster, yet another vital target for the draft and FA. Doesn't make much sense.
