John Ross wants a trade

[chad72]

Green, Higgins, Boyd - Ross doesn't even see playing time, so apparently he wants a trade from the Bengals.

Please, say no to the Chiefs!!! But given the team make up, more speed is just what the Chiefs need. 

 

The Patriots may be interested too - https://www.radio.com/weei/sports/patriots/nfl-rumors-patriots-target-wr-john-ross-wants-trade

 

As the Colts, I would definitely trade for Carlos Dunlap though.  

 

Thoughts???

I mean...I would take him for free...and see what he could for a game. It's not like the Colts couldn't use WR depth. But it seems like Marcus Johnson is occupying that deep threat right now...so not sure how Ross would get on the field...except maybe in the Campbell gadget role until he comes back.

4.2 speed.     5.2 hands.

 

Nit sure about the rest of the package either.   Routs and reading coverages.
 

I’d pass on a trade, but would grab him as a free agent.

He has done nothing since he got into the league. The Bengals have a new QB and could use all the WR help they can get. He got on the field for 1 play last week. Trade? No, he's basically asking to be cut. The Raiders like speed, even if they can't catch a cold..

Hard pass. I work with lots of Bengals fans and this guy has been such a disappointment to them.

Not even terrible players want to play for the Jets. Lol

He had a good start to the season last year. Back to back 100 yard games iirc. He’s also had some injuries here and there. He was just drafted by the wrong team. The Bengals have a long history of drafting highly rated players in the early rounds that never amount to anything.

This is a guy I’d be okay with trading a mid round pick for, if he agrees to a two year deal with heavy incentives. I’m thinking a 5th could get it

I was hoping 6th but I wasn't too sure

Oh my..:

 

1) Ross will not command anywhere close to 5th in a trade. 
 

2) There will be no new contract for him. If you trade for him you do it with the contract he current my has. Why would they give him additional years / money until they see for themselves if can actually play?
