I'd love to see us reunite Grady Jarrett with Dan Quinn and further solidify that interior DL. Most of the players we've got are good rotational guys but no stud. I know some would prefer a receiver, and I'm not against that. But if Jerry is actually all in, I'd prefer that we finish out the D.

Of course, the Falcons are 4-4 and lead the woeful South, so they probably aren't in a trading move.

That’s not the same. I didn’t say anything about a splash

How is it not the same? He says that every year during FA, throughout the year and near the trade deadline. I didn't mean you specifically said it was gonna be a splash I should have phrased it differently.

How it turns out is unknown. But that is what came out of Jerry's mouth.

A lot of things come out of Jerry’s mouth and what’s being posted is reportedly something he said. I’m sure he would like to do something at WR. When it’s all said and done he’s probably going to wish he kept Cooper.

If they do I wouldn’t count on it being someone that’s going to excite a lot of fans. The run stuffer they just traded for didn’t pay any dividends on Sunday. The Joneses aren’t looking to spend a lot of money on anyone.
Yeah, I’m not sure it’ll be a big trade. But they will trade for a WR.

It’s absolutely not the same. Some generic crap about improving the roster 365 days a year isn’t the same as what they are saying now. They’re saying they know this team can win and the window is open and they’re looking to capitalize. Not the same at all.

If they do it will likely be Cedric Wilson we’ll just have to see. Would love to get DJ Moore but reports are the Panthers don’t want to move him.

Won’t be Wilson. Too much money for what he brings to the table.

Yes, multiple threads on this. Stephen is also on record saying they’re interested in getting better. They will make a trade. That is clear.
But for who is the question.

i saw rumors of Stephen Gilmore going around today besides the wr rumors

The problem is it takes two to tango - Jerry stating he’s all in doesn’t mean someone will even bite or even offer up anyone worth a darn

If "they" includes Stephen then yes he says that same line of crap all the time. Listen to his weekly shows on 105.3 The Fan and you will hear him say it. It doesn't mean they won't do anything but it's something he has said a lot it in the past. Google my quote and I bet you will see he has said that same line within the last few days. I'm not trying to be argumentative because hell I hope I'm dead wrong and they do something significant to improve this team I just have a hard time buying into the crap lines Stephen tends to spew.

Jerry has been risk averse since he engineered that awful trade for Roy Williams.

Wilson is one of the players being rumored. Any receiver that would make a difference isn going to be real cheap, especially if you have to work out a contract with them pass this season.
