What do you guys think? What can we get for him..... maybe a 4th or 5 round pick?
Cardinals are still trying to trade Jones!!

If we could get a 5th round pick for Jones I'd be happy with it. You'd think someone would bite just based on his "potential", his suitor would probably be someone further up the waiver chain, because he will get released and a team like Cincy(not gonna happen), Detroit or Houston could take their chances that they could snag him off waivers rather than make a trade.

Trung Canidate got the Rams a 4th...I think Thomas is worth about that if not packaged in a trade..

It was also mentioned in the broadcast that the CARDS have begun preliminary negotiations on contract extensions with SHELTON and Van den Bosch.
Sorry but that just plain and simply is not true! TJ ran with much heart and conviction this last year he even gutted it out through almost the whole Charger game on a severe high ankle sprain(had a good game too). I dont know if you have ever had one but that is one of the most painful injuries!
He tried to gut it out the next week as well but voluntarily took himself out knowing he was hurting the team. Sorry but that showed pride and class!
I know many dont think he could garner a draft pick but I think he will look at the type of money that is given out to some of these FA this year who havent done squat or just have potential.
Someone will most likely take the chance on TJ and give up a lower round pick it really shouldnt shock anyone if it happens!

With everyone in the NFL knowing he's going to get cut, it's dicey we'll get anything. It's really not too bad of an idea for some team though. Give up a second day pick, get a guy with a one year deal at the vet min. Someone might find it worth it.

Yeah, but you give up a potential 4-year starter (a la that TE for the Fins, who came out of nowhere), for a guy with one year left on his deal.

The new team assumes only the salary. Jones salary is about 500K. The old team has to take all the signing bonus as a cap hit. This is why there are very few trades in the NFL.
As for giving up a chance at a good prospect, that's why getting anything for him is dicey. I think it'd be a team with fairly good depth already. None leap to mind.

Jones has gotta feel like an idiot.
