Quote:Caldwell likes having his excess of draft picks.  Now that we've gotten a glimpse of the roster, assuming you were the GM wanting more picks for the next draft, who would you trade, why, and for what? 

 

The only position, in my mind, that we have trade'able depth would be at wide receiver.  Shorts would be my candidate for trade, as the draft delivered 2 starting caliber receivers.  I don't see Shorts as a good candidate in the slot playing routinely over the middle with his concussion history, and Sanders can fill the role well.  Although I like to discount Blackmon from discussion, but if he does return sometime in the future, Shorts value is further lessened.  He's got only one year left on his rookie deal, and likely considered a #2/3 guy by most teams, so his trade value would likely be a modest 4th-5th round pick.          

i'm not saying he has made a habit of it or anything, but DC also accumulated those Picks during the season and in the FA right before the draft... he wasnt really making to many moves in the off season prior to the season.. but either way i just dont see to many people to trade... kinda thinkin POZ but i dont see anyone goin for his contract and i dont see to many people who would fill MLB on our roster.. DC seems to like to deal out  people who he didnt hire and since he's dumped almost everyone on the roster, i dont see anyone else who he would want to deal... alualu maybe.,something i have thought about recently was if we could use the cap room freed up while blackmon is suspended... if we dont have to pay him, which to my understanding we do not, can we count that as freed up cap room for the time being?
