Throwing this out for discussion. D.G still tight with Giants F.O. I would think. Beason has more knees problems last I heard. We have a couple of young LB'ers that may help them. What does the huddle think of James Jones in a trade for Klein or Mayo. I know James is 31, but still has tread left. May not be a number 1, but would definitly help. James on a one year deal with the Giants. Yes or no?

Not sure why you felt this deserved its own thread. I mentioned James Jones as a possible cut candidate last week but he had a good game against the Jets and is expected to make the team now. Victor Cruz is also nursing a calf injury so until he gets healthy I don't see the Giants dealing Jones or Randle. Randle being in a contract year would be a good trade target if Cruz wasn't hurt.

I've been reading reports throughout the web about Eagles WR, Riley Cooper. Some reports have been saying that he has been quiet this off season and had a lack luster year in 2014. The man is 27, 6'4" 230 lbs and is going into his 6th season. I'm not saying he can replace KB, but I believe he could be a serviceable WR for us this year and would provide Cam with another tall red zone option. I've been reading rumors around the web that the Eagles might explore a trade for Cooper, because Kelly is using his younger WRs.

What are the thoughts of a trade for Riley Cooper?

Cooper was the worst WR in the NFL last year. That isnt hyperbole. According to PFF, he was the literal worst WR in the league.

 

we can do better.

Cooper was never good. Honestly he's not much better than Bersin. Just got more opportunities. As for trading for James Jones that would be completely ridiculous. He's a #5/6 who's lucky to be on an NFL roster at this point. Why the hell would we trade anything for him? As has been brought up I would like the idea of Randle but I don't think they'll trade him for what we'd be willing to give up. Cruz is completely questionable how good he'll be after the injury and while Beckham is a monster you can't just rely on one guy. Look at what happened in Detroit before they got Tate.

      Brown on BY9 while talking to Chris Long

      I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.

      Canes vs Canadians Gm 2 Rd 3 7pm

      I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
