    Green Bay has a glut of corners and needs a receiver. Stills for King?

    That would be a pretty stellar flip considering we already are low on draft choices, have an excess of WR's. That is basically a 2nd for King, I havent watched him that much, good trade?

    How good is young? Who is our equivalent? Because we definitely could have done a 4th or 5th for a serious position of need...

    Rams acquired LB Kenny Young and a 2020 fifth-round pick in exchange for CB Marcus Peters.
    Young, who was benched at weak-side linebacker two weeks ago, is the ultimate trade throw-in. The No. 122 overall pick of last year's draft, he is also old for a second-year pro, checking in 31 days shy of his 25th birthday. Young's arrival is not going to change the calculus for the Rams' defense.


    Ravens acquired CB Marcus Peters from the Rams in exchange for LB Kenny Young and a 2020 fifth-round pick.
    Shaky in 2018, Peters had been specializing in giving up monster touchdowns this season, though his Pro Football Focus marks had actually improved. Either way, this is a complete white flag waving for a Rams secondary that just placed Aqib Talib on injured reserve. Young is a nobody in NFL trade terms. It's possible the Rams have their eyes on someone else (Jalen Ramsey) on the trade market. For their part, the Ravens on betting on Peters' play-making ability in their injured and under-achieving secondary. It would be far from surprising were 26-year-old Peters to bounce back in the Mid-Atlantic, though the nature of his game is always going to be volatile.

    Jaguars probably don't trade him here but same price they paid for Tunsil.

    Just like in 2011 we don't need the biggest name. Find the Johnathan Joseph's out there, while everyone's chasing the Nnamdi's.

    Its not likely Joseph came cheap either. It was damn near equal guaranteed money for both of them when we signed him. We need to draft better.

    Since when is "cheap" only determined by "guaranteed money"? Your recollection seems selective.

    Its not. By all accounts both of them didnt come cheap. I think they were the top 5 highest paid defensive players at the time. Nnamdi got 5yr 60mil with 25 guaranteed and Joseph got 5yrs at 49mil with 23.5 guaranteed.

    NFL front offices truly only care about guaranteed money as they can cut bait anytime with the incentives and not have too much to worry about. If a player earns that whole contract, than he he truly outperformed cause its not so easy to play out a contract in the nfl.

    Tunsil. He is more important RIGHT NOW. Ramsey has one more year, then he seems like the guy that will hold out if he gets tagged. Thats when we grab him.
