You aren't finding anyone who is going to give up anything of value for Jordan "made of glass" Reed, either.

In every season he has missed two or more games due to injury and in countless others played at way less than 100%. He probably is only physically able to make a strong impact in an average of 8 games a year career wise. His health is not going to magically improve as he pushes 30. With his contract you would be lucky to get a bag of day old doughnuts for him. He needs to be cut.

Yes, it is time to cut Jordan "I cannot make it through training camp" Reed.
After looking at his NFL career stats I am blown away how unspectacular they are. According to over the cap Reed has a 2019 cap number of $9,674,125
5.1% of our cap
This is no bullshit but here is Jordan Reed NFL career starts by year and TD production:
2013 4 starts 3 TD's
2014 2 starts 0 TD's
2015 9 starts 11 TD's
2016 8 starts 6 TD's
2017 6 starts 2 TD's
2018 8 starts 2 TD's

Hey PFF experts, do these look like stats of a someone going to cost our cap $9,674,125 hit this year?
Gruden needs to take off his blinders.

We definitely need a TE. Where I'm lost is how we are going to find the solution as an undrafted FA.

He's worth something because of his playmaking ability....and you're exactly right in that the man has been plagued by injuries during his entire career....but depending what the Redskins would be seeking should they shop Reed the production slightly outweighs him being prone to injury

Reed's value is minimized by his contract of $9+ million per year for 3 years

Well they would have to release him then....unless the would be team they trade him to either reworks his contract or takes over his current contract....there has to be at least one team that would make this trade.

Desean Jackson carried a cap hit of ~$9M with the Bucs, and they just traded him and a 7th for a 6th rounder.

People, stop with this notion that Jordan Reed is worth anything in a trade. For F's sakes.

I'm really intrigued by Noah Fant TE from Iowa, dude is a stud. I'd love to replace Reed this yr.

D-Jax while also with an injury history is still more reliable than Reed and still has speed to stretch a defense.

Exactly. That was my point. He's more reliable than Reed at a similar price point, and even he was traded only for the right to swap a 7th into a 6th.

Reed is a cut or keep player. He can't be traded.

Since he is either in street clothes or playing obviously dinged up half the time that is like paying a tight end who can't block $18 mil a year, who wants that?
