Default WR's to trade for!

Moss has a big contract, Stallworth is trying to find love elsewhere, is there any WR's worth trading for..... or may want out of there current situation.

Now for example would you send the first and third for say Larry Fitzgerald, there was recently press reports the player was not happy with the new coach, for reasons I do not know, I think he would be a great pickup in a trade.... they have Boldin and Bryant Johnson there.

Contract

2007: $830,000
2008: $1,092,500
2009: $1,355,000
2010: Free Agent

The St. Paul Pioneer Press suggests the Vikings could look to trade for Larry Fitzgerald this offseason.

Fitzgerald is a Minneapolis native and hasn't been enthusiastic about new coach Ken Whisenhunt, but dealing a franchise player would seem very unrealistic on the part of Arizona. It would also create quite a cap hit.

Arizona could then move up to #3 and draft Calvin Johnson and have the other first still.

What about you guys, anyone else.

Yes, I would also trade the other number 1 and Larry Izzo for LT.

Throwing in Izzo is giving up way too much.

I think this Fitzgerald issue has been brought up a while ago and got shut down. I think a good trade can be for Darrell Jackson from Seattle. It was rumored that he wasn't happy with them and they would be willing to trade him. He is only 27, I think, or at least close to that. Jackson would clearly be the #1 guy for us, and he doesn't have ego problems such as Moss. I say pull the trigger if it's possible. Problem is what Seahawks want in return might be a 1st round pick and that's too steep, IMO. Maybe they can work something out like a 1st and 3rd for Jackson and a 2nd? Not sure.

The only reason I would want Jackson would be for the sweet irony that Borges got suspended for the article that suggested this very same thing.

Beyond that, he's fragile and drops a lot of balls.

I would DEFINITELY do a 1 and 3 for LF.. in fact, to have LF for 3 years at those cheap salaries, id trade every non-comp pick except #24

Not as fragile as Stallworth and not many seemed to care then. Anyway, Jackson's drop problems are of the past, that was a few years ago. He led WRs in TDs last year until he got hurt late. Anyway, I'm just saying he is a good option via trade out the possible ones. Probably won't happen.

I can't see the Cards trading away Fitzgerald. I think any rumors that he is a potential trade to the Vikes is all media created. It is one of those things where the media figures he is from Minnesota (and was a Vikes ball boy) and was only in AZ because Dennis Green loved him. Now that there is a new regime there, they figure they might want to get value for him. I don't see it.

The Cards have the skill positions in place on offense that if they can solidify their o-line and develop at least a average defense, they could win a weak NFC West this year. Why would they risk that to give up Fitzgerald and rebuild again.

I think the Cards are a couple of pieces away from being a strong playoff contender and in the NFC that might be enough to get them to the Super Bowl.

I was also impressed with Bryant Johnson last year as well

And one may think that he would be more acessable than Fitz

IMO the Patriots are not looking for a classic #1 wr or whatever you want to call it. I think they thought they had the deep threat wr spot filled for next year with Chad Jackson and obviously they don't, then they saw the chance to get Stallworth and that's the end of the story. If they can't sign Stallworth into a reasonable agreement, I think they're not going to get mad and start to look for other options like trade for Moss. I guess they'll try to fix the situation by draft.
