Trade Idea involving Jets

AJ is getting older.  He is one of the good guys.  I do think the Bengals move on from him.   I cannot see them extending Green or Dalton contracts given the new coaching staff.

I would be willing to wager a bottle of Jack Daniels that Haskins is gone by pick #11.  

Again, everyone, the reason I brought this up is as follows:

-It addresses the LB position with an EXPERIENCED former First round pick.  The draft after Haskins would be wide open.  

-It allows two full years (barring injury or team in the shitter) for Haskins to develop behind Dalton

- It allows for a HUGE purge in salary that will be due to AJ and Andy, the former of which has started to show some injury history.  This would allow for free agency signings to put the team over the top and make a serious run. And stop being so cynical that the Bengals wouldn't know what to do with the money.  It's not 1990.

And since someone suggested needing more, maybe the Jets would throw in next year's second rounder as a conditional (based on AJ's performance....as high as a 2nd, as low as a 4th).
