They are desperate to get Tebow for their fan base. They know that their own pick at #10 is a reach and nobody else will take him nearly that high.
It seems like they would be eager to acquire a late 1st to get him, and could pay to do so, but they have no second rounder- we already have it.
It would be smart for them to trade #10 to us for #22 and also get their #42 back. That way at #22 they for sure get the guy their fans want anyway (Tebow) and also get an impact guy at #42. This works for us if BB identifies a worthy #10 pick that no way lasts to #22.
They could also probably use #42 for Tebow, but that may get risky if he has good tryouts.
I'm sure the value charts say #10 is worth more than #22 + #42, but for Jacksonville it allows them to appease their fans (and maybe stay in town) while filling another need before the 3rd round.
They could just take him at #10, but in my trade they can say that they got the guy they wanted at #10 and another guy for nothing. Makes sense.
Thoughts?
