Phase 1.

This is how I spent my time with B&G off line:
New Developement:

Buccaneers | B. Kelly in team's plans for 2007 season
Sat, 6 Jan 2007 18:06:03 -0800
Roy Cummings, of The Tampa Tribune, reports Tampa Bay Buccaneers CB Brian Kelly is in the team's plans for the 2007 season, according to general manager Bruce Allen. Kelly is scheduled to earn a $1 million roster bonus, earn $2.6 million in base salary and count $4.43 million against the salary cap in 2007.

Brian Kelly - 5-11, 193, 10yrs, USC

Kelly had a season ending surgury on his turf toe in week 7

Who they have now:
Juran Bolden - 10 yrs, Ronde Barber - 11 yrs, Alan Zemaitis - 2yrs IR (shoulder), Phillip Buchanon - 6yrs, Torrie Cox - 5yrs
Not a bad group at all. So it is possible.

Trade Grant to Tampa
Grant = 1420pt (pick 16(1000) and 48(420))
Tampa (1800) - They will not give up the #4, so we have to try a deal that will help us out long term. We must threaten to tag him again next year.

Tampa's picks in 2007.
Picks: 4, 35, 64, 68, 102, 141, 214, 245, 246

Possibilities:
35 (550), 68 (250) = 800
swapping 102 (92) for 126 (46) = 44 = 844
2nd in 2009 = 420 = 1260
3rd in 2008 = 190 = 1350
Kelly = 90pts.
Fair considering he is 31and coming of injury. Plus spreading the trade out to 2009. That is a good third rounder in value. Unless Tampa thinks they will stink it up for the next 2 years, like they did last year.

Saints picks.
27(680), 35(550), 58(320), 68 (250), 88(150), 102 (92), 123(49), 125(47), 163(26.2), 220(3.40)
2nd in 2009, 3rd in 2008, and Brian Kelly. Plus some 4 million in Cap space.

Grant for 2 Seconds, 2 Thirds, swapping 4ths and Kelly.

Tampa's picks in 2007.
Picks: 4, 64, 126, 141, 214, 245, 246 and Charles Grant
They still have picks in all the rounds. nothing lost but position for 2007.


Phase 2: Trading Up....coming soon.
First, let's see if this sounds. Possible? What do yall think?
