After watching Herndon get spanked repeatedly yesterday, I think it will take an unbelievable trade offer to give up the rights to Ramsey.  

That trade looked good until the part where they wanted a 3rd or 4 as well. No deal. I'm not a fan of Darby, Jones is good, but never healthy and Douglas is a borderline starter. They need to replace CB with one of their TE's to make that deal work. Two first rounders and Dallas Goedert for Ramsey and a 5th rounder.

The Eagles have always been the team I prefer to trade with. I'm not surprised Goedert wasn't part of their offer since they have big plans for him. I'd go along with your deal getting 2 first rounders and Goedert for Ramsey and a 5th, but didn't they trade that to the Steelers for Dobbs? Regardless, I'd still do this trade with us parting with a 4th rounder in addition to Ramsay. Herndon does need to improve considerably, however. Fortunately, he will be going against 2 backup q.b.'s the next couple of weeks and no elite guys like Mahomes for the remainder of this season. 

The best scenerio with this trade is that the Jags still can win the AFC South with Herndon, but would lose to the Patriots and Chiefs since Brady and Mahomes would continue to target the young quarterback. They would still come out of this trade knowing the cornerback class is very deep and they should find a guy who can replace Herndon at starter. This defense can still be very good by re-signing Yannick (he's not 100% now). Add in a weapon like Goedert and another first rounder and this trade would be probably the best the Jags could do.
