    1 way to look at it, how much would we paying for wr 1 and wr2 combined and judge, what would we paying if AJ wasn't on rookie pay. Would we overspend on the receiver position on a whole?

    Not sure of the relevance here. If AJ was on a big contract we wouldn't be considering Julio.

    I see it the opposite way. Since AJ is on a rookie contract, we should splurge on a #2 in order to maximize him being cheaper right now.

    More I think about it the more I'm sold on the Julio trade as well. We got a new OC with 1 wr
    Yea that's more of the line I was thinking, didn't really proof read my post. We would essentially be having 2 star receivers for the price of 1. Also was typing a new message when this came through, we got a new OC this year. 2 great receivers would mitigate more mistakes and help him. Julio probs ain't a burner or that but he's safer hands than Corey ever was if he's wr2.

    I also agree about the money. It is a good time for spending it, and around the time we start getting hit big with AJ, Julio wont be as big of a hit to cut or trade away. Problem for me is, I dont want to give up a 1st round and spend the money.

    Same. I don't really even want to give up a 2nd. A 3rd would have been my cap. Maybe throw in Evans too.

    Getting another elite playmaker on offense is almost necessary at this point, our “elite” ranked offense last season was deceiving as it rode on primarily one player. We lost two playmakers in Jonnu Smith and Corey Davis, whom weren’t great to begin with, but they were vital in an offense that depended so much on King Henry. Keep in mind Tannehill hasn’t proven he can carry an offense in the playoffs yet, and every playoff win in the past two years, Henry blew up. In both loses, Henry was held in check. I doubt our defense will be too much better than last year’s, so we might as well trade for Julio and have an offense that keeps the chain moving.

    I would give Atlanta a 2nd that could turn into a 1st if Julio hits 1,000 yards or 10 TD’s. If the pick turns into a 1st, we get a 4th back from Atlanta. Works for me.

    What NFL offense doesn’t primarily ride on 1 player?

    The defense will be a lot better. Top 15 type better barring injuries.
