With a $7M base salary? We are lacking about 1M in cap space. Plus cutting Jenkins comes at a 1.6M dead money cap hit effectively giving us -$2.6M in our pocket

We can't work out a new deal for him to sign after the trade to relieve the cap issue? His contact was a franchise tender.

he's not healthy dealing with plantar fasciitis, same thing that keeps Colston sidelined from time to time. Don't need that in a DB.

He's a top 10 FS when healthy. We do need that in a DB! We're not trying to get rid of Colston with his injury problems. Anything is better then what we have. Jairus Byrd is a playmaker. I've been following him since he came into the league. He's Sharper-esque.

There is that T word. Flip the script, your Buffalo, what do you "want" in trade?

I don't think straight up trade will float.
