This trade would completely make sense. Its a win for both teams and I bet it gets done.
Oakland realizes already that this year they are just playing out the string. Why not move a highly paid WR in exchange for a future First rounder, even if its going to be a VERY late first rounder?
If I'm the Bears I pull the trigger on this trade in two seconds if its offered.
Its obvious that they aren't going to get a very good first round slot this upcoming draft. They are already 4-0 and play a creampuff schedule like none I've ever seen. WHy not give up a very late first round draft choice for a target for Grossman to throw to?
Its really the right move, Gm's have to decide in all sports these days when "NOW" is. By that I mean, is "now" this year or next year or the year after.
"NOW" is now for the Bears and if I'm the Gm I do anything to pull out all the stops this year. They are 4-0, have the easiest schedule in the world the rest of the way, and own the tie breaker edge over the Seahawks(the other NFC leader with an easy schedule) so realistically they will have homefield in the playoffs as long as they are in the playoffs. Its not really premature to say any of thay, so, why not get a player who can really boost the offense and try and make "now" into a super bowl trip?
