Shefter intimating teams will have interest in Aubrey, even with the 2nd rd pick price tag.

If you are a playoff caliber team drafting at the bottom of the 2nd rd and have a major kicker problem, sacrificing a 2nd for the ultimate weapon is not beyond the realm of possibility. The question is would we match it.

I like Aubrey...I really do. But he does you no good kicking a 65 yard FG when you can't force a punt on D. If you get a 2nd rounder for a kicker, then you take it. Unless the money is/was in line with what you were willing to pay. But I certainly don't over pay.

I can def see arguments for and against it. 10 mils for a kicker does seem excessive, but is it excessive enough to say "we will only pay you 8 but not 10" in the grand scheme of things? It's 2 mils more on a 300+ cap.

That said, if you could find a suitable replacement (understanding, it's a significant risk) then getting a 2nd rd pick back is very intriguing.

Looks like he intends to see what offers are out there, of course anybody wanting to offer him something has to pay us the 2nd rd pick (unless for some reason we agreed to settle for less, which I cannot imagine in this instance).

Things might get real interesting.
