TRADES

Jarius Wright

With the arrivals of Laquon Treadwell and Stefon Diggs the past couple years, the Minnesota Vikings have grown quite deep at the receiver position. To a point where Jarius Wright can’t even see the field anymore. This despite being a solid complimentary receiver in 2014 and 2015. Since the Vikings have no plans to use him and his exit would give them some salary cap space, they might consider offering his contract up cheap for a trade.

Jeff Janis

The Green Bay Packers carried seven wide receivers into the regular season. That’s how much they value the position. Still with the return of Jordy Nelson they can’t possibly expect to use everybody. One name that got pushed down the depth chart is Jeff Janis. A former late round pick, he was their kick returner in 2015 and averaged 29 yards per return. He also caught two passes for 79 yards against the Chargers that year in the regular season. His explosion in the playoffs for 145 yards in Arizona proves the 6’3″ kid has talent worth exploring.
