Wanna trade with the Bears again?

From the Red Zone: Johnny Knox could push for a trade

Iffy on the idea myself. Lord knows he's fast and could be used in a DeSean Jackson type role, but I'm not sure how durable he is and I think we may already have enough receivers to pick from. If it weren't for the Gettis injury, I doubt I'd even look at this.

Still, we've had good luck trading with the Bears of late, and Olsen would likely have some insight to offer on whether it'd be a good idea or not.

Worth a thought, but I'd likely say no to anything higher than a late round pick in return.

has anyone heard the severity of the gettis injury yet?

Not a word.

If it isn't bad, I wouldn't give this notion much more thought. Looked like it might be though :(

That, plus Rivera doesn't generally seem all that thrilled with our receiving corps.

He is pissed that he would be the #3-#4 WR in Chicago.

With Naane, Gettis, LaFell , etc on the roster.....he would not be guaranteed to be any higher than that here.

Assuming Gettis is healthy. Plus LaFell doesn't exactly seem like Rivera's favorite player right now.

As a pure vertical threat, something the Coryell offense can use, he's worth a look.

That said, Mike Martz runs a version of a Coryell offense and he considers Knox "inconsistent".

(though in fairness he also considered Greg Olsen trade worthy)

Again, I'm iffy.

I agree that he is worth a look from our perspective.

Given "why" he wants a trade is what would concern me.

Seems he is pissed that he is not the #2 WR now....seems like a whiney little bitch to me.

    • He was a raw receiver.  NFL average for receivers to come into their own is 3 years.  There is no doubt he has been a disappointment.  No reason to ship him off on his rookie contract.  He has the ability- and he has made some fantastic catches.    Color me 1 that is more than willing to see what he does next season.  Isn't going to cost the team anything to do so. 
    • PRO: Bad Bunny will have some fuego latinas dancing for him for entertainment    If not I riot  
    • Is Ocho going to run routes for him and catch the ball too? Because that is the only way I can see this helping, but hey at least the dude is trying something because he just saw his stock drop heavily in yr2, from COKER balling in big spots and TMAC winning OROY hitting 1K in his 1st year in the NFL! (Oooooh that felt good typing!) I still think he may be a serviceable WR but honestly DM still needs to keep flooding the WR room with talent imo, so XL better try something and quick. Otherwise he will be another bust and washed out of league in 2-3 years.
