Is JC Horn marketable?

He will be in the league a long time with his current tape, I think. He just is starting to look like he’ll never be the player he couldve been but could still improve a secondary and be really good. 
 

Almost reminds of TDs early injury misfortune. Still ended up being a hell of a player but maybe not what he could have been.

No it wouldn’t be prudent to trade our only corner who also happens to still be on his rookie deal with a 5th year option.    Keep him and sign someone legit opposite him.  

Opposite him and behind him*

Since his back-up will actually be the starter.

Good perspective.

he is marketable in the sense he is a high tier player when healthy and has another year on his rookie deal.  So if you are a good team.  He would make a lot of sense if you had a hole in your secondary. 

we can't extend his contract.  not to a deal that matches his talent.   we aren't going to do anything of note next year.  Right thing for us given his history would be to let him walk.  I would trade him if you could find a deal for him.

we are rebuilding though.  We aren't contending this year or next.  So what purpose does he really serve if he isn't part of the long term plan.  And Horn shouldn't be part of the long term plan and be here after his rookie deal is over.  His injury history says we shouldn't extend him to money.

hes cheap and if he gets healthy and balls out you have the option for another year at an affordable rate.  he doesnt hold much trade value at this point, why create another hole on the roster and eat his dead money?

I get he is cheap now.  But that's also what would make him potentially attractive to a good team. 

you want them to extend and pay a DB that has been that comically injured? If you don't.....then he isn't part of our plans.  Even if he balls out this team isn't going to do anything next year.   So he just ends up walking.  Why not get stuff for assets that aren't part of the long term plan.  Because our future success would have to be in the long term not short term.

    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
