Styrian Raider Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 In case McDaniels/Ziegler are willing to trade away Jacobs. What are those RB-needy Teams and what do you think we can get for Jacobs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams off the top of my head that could use a RB: Bills, Saints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't think we would Like to strengthen an AFC contender. Unl3ss you get a First and more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading Jacobs this year also doesn't give us any cap relief, we'd eat his entire $3.7M salary, so you'd be making the move to avoid a hypothetical 5th year option which we could just decline to pick up anyways, lol.

But for a small fast WR I love the way he runs his routes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What rounds is he realistically looking at being selected? I would like to see LW at LG before we spend a 3rd or 4th on a LG. From what we saw last year his footwork is more natural on the left side.

Seems like the one thing our OL coach values is versatility and guys that can play multiple positions in a pinch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted April 2, 2022 Author Share Posted April 2, 2022 Another position I wouldn't be surprised to see us invest a pick into is center. Cole Strange is someone I'd be interested in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, this hypothetical trade would not be for creating Cap space. It would rather be for getting better talent in a Position of need and of course we would then pick also an RB. For example: Get a 2nd round pick and a 4th round pick and use the initial 3rd we have for dameon Pierce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest gripe that anyone has with Jacobs is that they don't want to pick up his 5th year option and pay him $8M. Jacobs has had 1,100 yards from scrimmage every season and was way better as a pass catcher last season. I just don't see the value in moving Jacobs and creating another hole while hoping that a rookie RB and an injured Drake can fill in for him.

I could see these guys on the trade block on draft day Ferrell Perryman Abram Mullen or Hobbs if we are offered good value. We wouldn't trade them all, but I could see maybe one of these guys gone Edited April 2, 2022 by Humble_Beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see these guys on the trade block on draft day Ferrell Perryman Abram Mullen or Hobbs if we are offered good value Ferrell has almost no trade value and there's no cap savings from trading him. I don't see the team trading Perryman who is on a very team friendly deal and creating another hole. Abram I could see being traded just because he doesn't fit the scheme. I can't see us trading Hobbs since McDaniels has spoken well about him. Mullen is one of the most likely players to be traded if we do make a move, imo.
