I'd bet $2 billion they don't go offense AGAIN in the first round, particularly not at OT two years in a row.
This is correct. You can debate Johnson all you want, but if you dump him you've blown open a huge hole in the roster to fill when you already have a number of places you need to invest resources. They'd literally have Pickens, Austin, and special teamers/projects - it would force them into overpaying in free agency or using a top 1-2 pick on one.I think Johnson is overpaid for what he brings but you can’t just trade him without needing to replace him immediately. Neither he nor Pickens are true WR1s but they’re not really in a position where they can afford to move either.
Their WR group is already pretty thin as-is, especially if they cut Robinson like they should. They should be using like a 2nd to draft a WR regardless, but I still don’t think they’re in a position to trade Johnson right now.
