Breaking: Arnold to Jax for CJ Henderson?

[MechaZain]

Love this move. Arnold was solid but Tremble just needs more targets. No lose situation.

He was a top 10 pick in the 2020 draft. He wasn’t close to a top 10 CB. His PFF grades last year and this year were bad. I have some faith that we can turn him around as well but he’ll have some growing pains because he hasn’t been a good established NFL corner yet.

I was talking about draft pick not grade...top 10 draft picks from the year prior doesn't get traded for a 3rd & Dan (especially at corner)...This will prove to be a steal if he can stay healthy both physically & emotionally.

Love the trade, but Urban Meyer is fugging stupid.

First The Golden Calf of Bristol, then the strength/conditioning coach hire/fire, then the "every week it's like Alabama" comment and now this.  Lol dude just GTFO of the NFL.

Not sure what to think of this.  I suppose we can afford to lose Arnold if another one of our 5 TE's can take his production, which isn't much.  Losing a 3rd though, I feel like we won't have much of a draft this year.  I guess we're pretty much guaranteed to be trading down our first this year.

I don't know enough about the CB to say if it's worth it or not.

Dont think of it like that, this of it that we just drafted CJ henderson with a 3rd round draft pick.  Dude is a top 10 talent and has shown dominating flashes, and hes on his rookie contract with a 5th year option, so we have him for 4 years.  This is a great move, next year, this Backfield will be utterly suffocating.

This is a great trade. He may not even start... but this gives us much needed depth and great potential at the position. He has speed and size. Needs to be coached up. I dont think this necessarily means that Donte is gone. But it gives us options going into the offseason. 

Dan Arnold wasnt bad, but I think we like what we have in Tommy Tremble and Ian Thomas. This lets us get Robbie the touches he needs. Shi Smith is coming off of injury and we're getting solid contributions from guys like Brandon Zylstra. It was the best piece to move. 

I know that we're worried about the Draft... but if this team continues to improve, then we're a year a two away from consistent contention. We've got money to attract the help we need and draft O-line in 2022.
