re: Morris Claiborne, We should

There's plenty of guys that are NFL players but just over drafted. Meachem and Malcolm Jenkins come to mind first. Both have had roles and contributed to the success of the Saints. Neither are 1st Rd talent tho. If Jenkins had been drafted in the 3rd Rd I would have no disappointment in his performance as a Saint. Meachem, obviously even later than that. That might be the case with Claiborne. He's prolly an NFL player, just not a #6 overall shutdown corner.

Makes me think of Dee Milliner. THIS is the cautionary tale of trading Jimmy Graham. The Jets took a #13 and 3rd Rder for Revis. Milliner was the #1 rated CB. He was benched multiple times and couldn't get higher than #3 on the depth chart. I've even forwarded the idea of getting Ebron or Amaro to replace Graham. That could turn out to be a brilliant move if he came in and was 2/3 as effective. There is a huge risk though that you are trading a known NFL playmaker for rookie that might not be able to produce half as much.
