That’s right, folks!

I am talking about one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL, Jalen Ramsey.

Ramsey is currently under contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars the 2020 season but the Jags have granted him permission to seek out a trade.

Ramsey is only counting as $7,429,865 against the Jaguars cap in 2019 but that number goes all the way to $13,703,000 in 2020.

With the recent roster moves by the Lions, they currently have an estimated $18,017,074 remaining in cap space for the 2019 season which would be more than enough to cover Ramsey’s potential cap hit if they trade for him.

As we speak, the Lions currently have north of $46 million in cap space for the 2020 season but that number will drop substantially after signing/re-signing players in the upcoming offseason (or sooner).

Not only is Ramsey expected to cost AT LEAST one first-round pick (most likely more), but once acquired, he will demand a contract extension which will certainly cost his new team more than $15 million per year.

Nation, would you be willing to pay the price (draft and salary cap capital) to acquire one of the best (if not THE best) cornerbacks in the NFL?

Though I still am leaning towards this deal being HIGHLY UNLIKELY, it sure is fun to close my eyes and envision a Lions defense with Darius Slay on one side and Jalen Ramsey on the other!
