Quote:Given the teams issues at WR  --  I'm very, very confident that there is not a team out there willing to give what he's currently worth to the Jaguars. 

 

He'd be a #2 anywhere else. He will be here soon enough.  But for now, he's the best we have to offer until the rookies find their footing.

There's a price for that - but no team is going to pay it for Shorts.

 

Which has no bearing on my position.

 

I didn't say "GET RID OF HIM FOR WHATEVER CAN BE GOTTEN!" I said I'd trade him if someone were to offer the value that made it worthwhile.

 

That being said I think you have an inflated sense of his value. This is still a team in transition. A guy leading the team in receptions in a year that is likely to feature double digit losses again just doesn't increase his value for the long term.

 

I expect Lee and Robinson will both end up at least as good as Shorts, so if someone were to offer a first rounder or second and third rounder I think it's a deal that Caldwell would have to seriously consider.
