I mean, there is always the possibility we do another Julio Jones type trade this year to get the guy we want and need. I'm not saying it will happen, but its definitely a possibility.

I don't know about that. There's a big difference between going up to get a defensive guy vs. and offensive guy. Defensive players have a bust factor about 10x that of offensive, especially WR's.

Like you could look at Julio and AJ Green and know without a shadow of a doubt that they would be very good with huge potential to be great.

The ONLY defensive player I can think of in the past 10 years that I would say the same thing about is Von Miller. Jarvis Jones will most likely be pretty good and may actually end up being great, but there's no way you can say that with anywhere near the certainty of Julio.

We might be able to say it about Clowney next year, but that's about it.
