Like you I figured Taylor would want to see him in person first. I guess I would take a 2nd rounder if it was possible still had hope Ross would pan out in a new system. Reciver becomes a bigger need if we trade Ross but I would still go O-line and linebacker in the first two rounds were not winning anything with this offensive line or linebacker group. This also makes to start to question Tobin more and some of his drafts. I wonder if it was Tobin or Taylor calling the shots on the Ross trade or did they both think it was the right thing to do.
What we paid doesn't matter to his today worth, it's a sunk cost. If we can get something back it's better than nothing. I doubt this would be done without consulting Taylor. I tend to wonder if Ross is being shopped with a purpose. Maybe he is being shopped for a specific piece or as part of a package. When things leak there is normally more to the story.
