Quote:Why is Quinn looking to trade Tomlinson? And I wonder if the Jags would be interested?

 

 Laken Tomlinson got benched last October, with then rookie Graham Glasgow becoming the Lions primary LG until C Travis Swanson suffered a concussion that kept him out of the last 4 regular season games and the playoff game at Seattle.  Tomlinson then was inserted back into the starting lineup at LG the rest of the season. 

 

 Tomlinson was very inconsistent in 2016,  after a shaky rookie season.  His best game was probably against the Rams in mid October,  when he filled in at RG for the injured Larry Warford.   Tomlinson looked more comfortable at RG.  With T.J. Lang now the starting RG barring the injury factor and both Glasgow and 2016 5th Round pick Joe Dahl contenders for the LG spot,  I think the Lions are better off trading Tomlinson if a team is willing to give the equivalent of a 4th Round pick. 

 

 If the Jaguars would be comfortable with A.J. Cann moving to LG,  it's possible the Jaguars would have interest in Tomlinson.   But with the addition of Earl Watford,  another team could easily be willing to give the Lions more for Tomlinson than the Jaguars would.
