I don't understand keeping Driver on the team either. That spot should be kept for someone that can play some special teams and has a potential to become a factor in the future. I mean, does his energy and locker room presence really provide THAT much to the team? Perhaps it does, but i'm skeptical. The core of this team is fairly experienced and veteran now.

So we trade Donald Driver?

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.

Why not do both? If Jones lands us a starter on defense in a draft day trade, I'm all for that. Keep your five TE's and go with Jennings, Jorde, Cobb, Gurley and filler player. You still maintain an "embarrassment of riches". Always liked that term.

If Jones lands us a QUALITY starter on defense, fine...I guess. Personally I am against the idea, though.

I'm against Trading Jones too. We have the best receivers in the league top to bottom and I don't want to just trade one away. He knows the system, and works well in it.
