No way I'd use a 4th on a one-year rental.

Not ideal, but then would know if he's worth resigning long term with an inside track on him-and if not, if someone truly throws big $ at him, then maybe get a comp pick in 2018 as a result.  Far more likely than him completely falling off the face of the earth and being out of football at 25.

A one year rental for a backup is not worth a 4th, but there's more than meets the eye here, as the Jags may not feel motivated to give away their own depth for less as Beachum is recovering from injury himself.

If the money is right I would definitely give them a whirl.  Remmers is probably going to be replaced by Wiliams so if we were to bring either one of these guys in they would have to fight Oher.   Oher had a good year for us so if they beat him out at LT than the Panthers win.

Bring him in as backup to Oher and if he shows improvement sign him long term and let him battle with whoever we draft next year.

I could see the Panthers making a play for Joeckel mostly because he is cheap and young. 

He would instantly be our 2nd most expensive lineman and we would have to trade for him to most likely be a backup. I guess it's possible if they immediately extend him but who knows if they actually think he's worth anything at all.

he was the second pick in the draft and is only a year long rental, so yes he is going to cost a bit more than our band of case offs and mid rounders but like i said he is still young, talented, and relatively cheap.

PFT pointed out that only twelve of that year's thirty-two first rounders had their fifth year option picked up (Star obviously being one of them).

A lot of folks think this year's first round was chock full of reaches, so who knows?

I think actually it was 12 of the 32 that had their options DECLINED, at least that is the headline.  I'd have to double-check the tracker list.

Final count: 12 first-round picks from ’13 have fifth-year options declined

Assuming he's a year long rental then trading for him would be even worse IMO.

There will be other options.  Sometimes one man's trash is another's treasure.  But make no mistake they'd be scrap-heapish options in a league desperate for OT help.

      If I’m putting myself in a team’s shoes - you’re looking at these prospects and Warren hits most boxes for a TE with a plus on most. So yeah, he’s a great prospect, no doubt, 1st round talent as a TE. But when I look at him through the lens of that PSU offense, they were running so much through him, I’m not so sure it was beneficial to seeing how he translates.  They were getting him open in the flat, running weird trick plays, and designed a lot of ways to find him on delayed seam routes and such. So a lot was structured around getting him the ball in creative ways to advance the ball, in steady sequences, methodically down the field.  Thing is, yeah he’s catching a ton, is big, and can block, but throw him into an NFL offense in a more traditional sense, he’s gonna be stickied by speedy LBs and big nickels. I just wonder how he is in a more isolated fashion— when he’s just a piece of a greater NFL offense getting shadowed by more talented defenders. I think it could still be great but I have question marks when it’s at the TE position. Will he look no different than other very solid TEs or is he this offensive centerpiece at the position that doesn’t come along often (Bowers, Gronk, Kelce, Witten, TG, etc)? I think he brings a ton and could be one of the safer TE prospects, but what I’m unsure about is if you’re really getting this new age Witten type people are crowning him as. Even if that’s the case, is that worth it? If he wasn’t in PSU’s Franklin/Allar offense, would you be seeing the same output?  More questions than anything - I could get on board with it, but it’s hard for me to really project because of how that offense was (which was so frustrating at times).

      Twitter sources, but supposedly the Rams want him. He might actually go Round 1.

      You aren't going to ever get him out of the equation. As he has stated previously, he believes it his right to make the final call on decisions.
