If the Indianapolis Colts are hoping to land Arizona Cardinals' wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. in a trade, it is going to cost a lot.
According to NFL insider Tom Pelissero, the former fourth overall pick "won't come cheap." League sources are telling Pelissero that the Cardinals would want a "second-round pick and more" to consider dealing Harrison.

A recent report from ESPNsaid that the Cardinals are "not shopping" Harrison. However, teams are doing their "due
diligence" and reaching out to Arizona.
One of those teams is reportedly the Colts, who "would entertain" the idea of trading for Harrison.
Adding Harrison to the mix makes sense on paper for the Colts. For one, his dad -- Marvin Harrison Sr. -- is a Hall of Famer and Colts legend.
Indianapolis also needs help at the receiver position with Alec Pierce on IR. In Pierce's absence, the Colts' offense has struggled to generate explosive plays, which, in turn, has made moving the ball on short-to-intermediate throws more challenging as well.
However, that reported asking price is very steep, and the Colts are short on 2027 draft capital, already without their first-round pick from the Sauce Gardner trade.
One could also question whether it makes sense for a GM who is on the hot seat and trying to save his job to trade away future draft picks that he may not be around for.
This year's NFL trade deadline is Nov. 10.
