New England can have Gaffney for a low round pick. Come on BA, start dealing! LOL.

Don't be too surprised, cause there's already whispers of it being a possibility.

He was definitely our best WR last year but that's not really saying much. As well as he played he's not a playmaker, and it's obvious that's what we need more than anything.

5. Paul
6. Robinson or 2012 draft pick

Without the offseason it's probably unlikely that Hankerson can elevate to #1 status but the hope is that he emerges as a #1 eventually.

Gaffney deserves another year here, but his trade value hasn't been as high since his early years & the position is getting crowded. Look at it this way, if the coaches feel like he's on the bubble to make the roster in camp, might as well get a late round pick for him, especially w/our recent trade factored in.

I guess he's expensive for depth, but I think he's a better WR than Josh Morgan. I'm probably in the minority there, but I would like to keep him for depth. I can see Morgan not panning out. Gaffney was productive in the system and could provide some veteran leadership to the new guys coming in. I'd like to keep him around.

Matty,

He may not be a gamebreaker -- but he's reliable which is something. He runs good routes and makes catches on balls near him. I think every team needs at least one guy like that.

Sending Gaffney to NE for a 4th or 5th wouldn't make me lose any sleep.

No way we'd get a 4th, or a top half 5th for him.

NE has been known to do weird deals like that. I remember a few years ago they gave the Iggles a 4th rounder for freaking Greg Lewis.

Totally get that.

But if we sign Royal, I just don't see where he fits in. He's not worth keeping around as your 4th or 5th guy.

If he was, we wouldn't have made the move for Morgan.

Is it unthinkable to cut Moss and have Royal play out of the slot? Cutting Moss before June 1st would save us $1.3M, after June 1st, $2.83....

I could totally see cutting Moss & Gaffney. Neither of these guys are the future here anyway.

Our need for Jabar Gaffney's services is dependent on whether or not Morgan can do what Gaffney does (plus extra, obviously).

I dont think cutting Moss saves us anything, now. But If he gets cut now, he will save us 6 million next year
