Pretty implausible situation really, I mean the Vikings panicked nearly 10 years ago and coughed up a 1st rounder for Sam Bradford, but when has any team done anything similar? If anything, the failure of that trade would be a warning more than a green light. That even aside, who would look at JG as the answer? Dumped unceremoniously from his previous 2 teams, and has been an available FA the last 2 off seasons. Alas, even if Staff is fully 100% healthy, I wouldnt see the Rams trading him for a mid round pick
By "top end pick" I meant for his talent level.

I agree nobody would give up a first rounder for Jimmy. But maybe some team is desperate enough to cough up a second and I'd have to think real long and hard before I say no. It would be a no, granted, given my current fears with Stafford's back, but I'd still need to think about it.

Bottom line is unless Jimmy's starting for us there will inevitably be a team trying to shake him loose because he's a QB1.5, and I don't rule anything out given how dumb teams can get when it comes to QB.

So you want Bennett to play in week 1?
I thought there were 4 preseason games. Honestly, I don't want to see Bennett at all in the regular season this year. But I would like to see him get better in the preseason and hopefully become an asset down the road.

Hahaha, if someone offered a second for Jimmy, Rams would probably trade him.
