3.2 mil to tender JC is not bad at all.

i think or would like to think that if JC is tendered then traded, it woud be comparable to matt schaub. the falcons tendered him for a 1st and 3rd then traded him to the texans for a 2nd (and 6th?) round picks.

if we can get a 2nd for JC, it seems pretty clear to me we should take it. probably even a 3rd and 5th rounder as well.

i would not trade JC for a 4th rounder, he has more value being our QB next year (no matter what happens in the draft) then a 4th roundr imo.

and the talk on the first page about JC wanting a trade if we draft a qb no. 4. he said this past month that he is a starter in this league and doesnt want to and shouldnt have to compete. if we actually draft a qb no. 4, i think JC will let it be known he is not happy but in a polite and professional way, which i would have no prob with and would understand.
