Anyone know what the equivelent point value is when converted to a pick?

Ok, now we make a trade with the Jets!

According to league sources, the Bears have agreed to trade RB Thomas Jones and a 2007 second-round pick (No. 63 overall) to the Jets for a 2007 second-round pick -- No. 37 overall -- which was acquired previously in a trade from Washington, ESPN.com's Michael Smith reported.

The Jets still have two picks in the second round -- No. 59 and now No. 63.

The Jets and Jones' representative, Drew Rosenhaus, are believed to be working on a new contract with Jones, whose unhappiness with his Bears contract led to him skipping offseason workouts this past season.

The Bears now have the No. 31st (first round) and 37th overall picks.

Thanks!!!

So that's 254 points, or roughly the 3rd pick in the 3rd round.

Good. I'd rather we face Cedric Benson than Jones..I don't think either of them is anything special though *knock on wood*

agreed.

There was absolutely no way the Bears were going to trade Jones to a division rival. Can't wait to see how the TT haters spin this one.

The Jets have Leon Washington.
Either they are going to follow the Colts lead with the 2-headed monster RB approach with Jones- or perhaps do the same thing by drafting a back with one of their 2nd round picks.
The Bears would never have made a deal with us for Jones.....but would the Jets?
