Potential Trade up to 19th Overall w/Miami


Lout

Recommended Posts

It says we are targeting Marquis Lee or Brandin Cooks at 19.

 

Miami interested in trading down from 19 if Zack Martin isn't there.. which I believe will be gone at 12 (NYG).

 

We'd have to give up a 2nd or 3rd rounder to jump 9 spots in the 1st round.

 

If we stand at 28, it sounds like Bitonio is our target.

 

What do you guys think?

All I'll say is, don't trust everything you read draft week. There's also been article saying we are open to trading down. Both beat writers think KB is one of the top guys they want. Point is, no one really knows except a select few. Everything else is speculation.

Doesn't seem like Gettleman's style

 

I agree completely.  While I'd love either Cooks or Lee on the team.. giving up a 2nd or 3rd rounder is too rich for the extensive needs that we have on this team.

No way we trade up into top 20. Only trade up I could see would be with the Browns at 26 if there's a WR we want and a QB they want. Give up only a 6, then the Saints can't steal our guy. But even that is unlikely.

This sounds like Miami floating rumors to raise trade value of their pick. If teams think the Panthers are moving to 19, suddenly the 4 NFC playoff teams (including the Saints) are on notice. Do you want to lose your guy to a fellow contender? Do you want to lose your guy to the team that stole the division from you? The team that sent you to Seattle?

 

It just sounds like typical draft noise to me.

As I said earlier. I love making the playoffs but it really does suck the fun come draft time when you have such a crappy pick like we do. I wish there was some kind of balance, like we go 9-7 every season, make the playoffs and still get a top 15 pick lol. Get best of both worlds. Still make playoffs while still getting a decent pick.

Honestly, out of Sammy Watkins and a few others, this draft seems to be filled with JAGs, doesnt seem like a big difference between 1st and 2nd rounds.

I understand how you feel about picking late but think it through....Do you want to make the playoffs and lose in the wild card every year? Draft position is part record but mostly based on how far you go in the playoffs.

 

I'm fine picking late, there are still lots of intriguing players on the board. To me drafting late sucks in the 2nd round when the last of the big names are scooped up and by the third you are taking players with big question marks.

It's frustrating to get a later pick though just because we got a bye and not because we went deep in the playoffs. It feels like we had the same level of postseason success as say, the Packers (since we were both one and done), but they pick 21st.

I know getting a bye week is huge, but still...doesn't change how people are going to perceive the postseason success/draft pick tradeoff.

    • We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.
    • Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)
    • I think there's a ton of potential in that WR room. But they really are unproven right now. Hopefully they live up to the hype.
