Aside from the absurd scenarios that were posted in jest, O'Leary is the one guy that I could see as a feasible trade possibility, that could actually come in and make a great contribution in ways that sometimes don't show up on the stat sheets.

Having a good team is more about overall roster quality, than some other factors.  The reality is, you just can't have 22 All-Pros on your starting lineup.  So, having better quality in your reserve stock, that can contribute in ways that raise up some of the starters that are less than stellar is key.  O'Leary, with his ability to be a pass catcher, in-line blocker, or h-back, makes him able to fill multiple roles.  Imo, CJ Uzomah has really been a disappointment.  With all his physical tools, massive catch radius, etc., I really expected him to push for playing time by now.  I could totally see a guy like O'Leary bumping Uzomah, or even Hewitt from the roster.  Sure, Hewitt was given a nice contract, but he's been dinged up and seldom used as of late.
