Tell me you don't seriously believe that. It happens all the time especially in a salary cap sport when you have a younger (less expensive) talent that needs to be on the field more often.

Sure ... a lot of teams are considering him to be a 2nd WR on the team. Then why didn't no one sign him last season when he was a free agent ... and now they will trade for him?

James Jones won't be traded because he didn't do anything in 2011 to increase his value.

He doesn't warrant his contract and he holds back player development; he gets slower every year, which plays into the hands of the defensive coordinator. Go watch highlights of his career for your walks down memory lane, but in the present why don't we put guys on the field that give Dcoorndinators stress?

I don't expect much in the way of a trade return. I don't think he'll do much in 2012 to increase his value either.

PFT

Driver was announced as a member of the new cast of Dancing With the Stars on Tuesday morning, continuing a trend of past and present NFL players competing on the show.

Anyone ever see that dude on drunksexorgy.com who looks EXACTLY like DD?

You don't just trade old people that makes no sense. You trade away people whose cap hit doesn't make sense in your organization.
