We could then put Tamba on the trade block for a late 1st/early 2nd and get a QB or CB or S with that pick.

To me, Tamba is a 1 trick pony (Pass Rush) and he even seemed to take a step back in that last season. For a guy that almost exclusively rushes the passer every down, I want more consistent pressure than what I saw last year. With Jones, you get a potential elite 3-4 OLB to pair with Houston + a chance to trade a player when he might command a lot more than he will in 2 years when he starts sucking. Upgrade at OLB + a pick is WAAAAYYYY better than a LT at #1 and kicking Albert (who is a better pass blocker than run blocker) inside to G.

Alright CP --- let me have it...
I kind of agree with you. I think Tamba gets more credit and hype for the production he delivers. At the same time I have to say I think he gets held more than any player I have ever seen and gets no calls, which is actually another reason to trade him.
