The net loss on our part is essentially two 3rds and a 4th. And actually a little less than that since the one player is theoretically worth more than the first you gave up.

The "normal" trade value to move up from 14 to 6 is two 3rd round picks and a 4th.Could Jenkins be involved somehow? Absolutely but that's not the scenario I used.

Nor did I, I said nothing about Jenkins.

#6) Morris Claiborne CB (From STL) trade our #14, 81 and 2013 3 & 4th Rd picks
For long time now i am playing with this idea. But i only would do it by tradeing another player. Mike Jenkins is the frontrunner.

I think you should always go against the majority. This year mostly everybody wants to trade down. So to trade down will be very expensive because there are alot more who seeking a trade down then teams willing to trade up.

This year for us to trade up could be very "cheap" compared to other years.

And second we are in need of a second good CB: Because of the money invested in the CB position i dont see us signing Jenkins this or coming season. So we need a starting caliber CB. Why not take a chance here. Get rid of a player who will demand alot of money next year and get a cheap but great replacement for him.
Stay positive. Stay focused. Keep smiling.
After all it's a process.

Jenkins is not 31 we may be able to get a decent pick for him maybe a 4th rounder

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.
