Ok, so let's talk this through... CBs > WRs. It's comparable, but let's face it CBs don't move around often and when they do they get a big haul. I think with the age difference and the position difference, Porter isn't too far from White. So then we're looking at the other 3 pieces. Robinson is solid, but 30. 30 isn't the end of his NFL life, however, he's not a real-life RB. Andre Roberts isn't too far off OVR wise, and let's say the age of Roberts cancels out the difference between the value of a CB and a WR. Or closes the gap. That leaves Carter to the finishing touches and while I'm not overly impressed by a 70 OVR, B pot, that's not too shabby as a 2nd or 3rd DT that could grow. I'm good with this unless someone brings up something I'm missing. Forgive me for talking it out in thread like this, but I think it's helpful for me and maybe the rest of us too.
