Jaguars Willing To Deal RB Maurice Jones-Drew If Price Is Right

The Jaguars have said that they are not interested in holding a "fire sale" of sorts that could include trades of veterans like Maurice Jones-Drew or Paul Posluszny, but according to a report from Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, the Jaguars aren't opposed to the idea of trading away their three-time Pro Bowl running back if the offer is right.

So obviously if a decent trade offer is present for Jones-Drew, it would be in the Jaguars' best interest to prepare for the long-term as the running back isn't going to help the team to the playoffs in 2013.

SteveRobWhatever's Take: I wonder what the right terms would be. Maurice Jones-Drew must be salivating at the thought of someone coming up with a deal to save him from NFL purgatory. He's been a wasted talent for too long. His numbers might be down this year, but look at that team. It's pretty bleak in Jacksonville.

 

I wish there was a way for Dallas to rent him for the season, but there just isn't.

 

I doubt anybody offers up enough that they'll do it. That said, he's on several of my teams and I'd obviously love him to be somewhere else.

 

Stay away from that phone, Jerry.

Whatever price the Jags are asking would probably be way too much for MJD at this point.

I finally had to drop him. It was painful to do, but no one has picked him up lol
