The Jared Allen and Bernard Berrian pick-ups showed that. As for Bowe taking a "role player" status, coming off of an injury-riddled season and hitting age 29 next season, who knows if that's the kind of receiver most teams would want anchoring their receivers for the long-term? He's got a wide-open market come free agency, and I don't think it's going to matter to him if he's a #1 or #2 receiver if he's paid the same. Again, all I was saying was best case scenario for this team - never actually speculated the likelihood of all of it.

With an Arizona team that's about to be shaken up, the Cardinals probably wouldn't look past trading Fitz away to clear cap space. But again, who knows? I think you're undervaluing Harvin if you don't think a top receiver comparable to Fitz can be had with a trade of Percy and a draft pick. Again, that’s more or less my dream scenario.
