Second Round Trade


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

If I was asked about trading up last night as Gettleman was, I would probably answer the question the same way. If you say yes and don't end up trading up, the fan base loses their minds. Trading up before a round has even started is so hard to predict. Hopefully a couple of the top WRs drop 10 picks into the second and we jump. Need a day 1 difference maker at WR and Smith and Strong fit the bill.

Go get Devin Smith.

I could see us going OLB/SS in the 1st (Shaq Thompson)

I want Devin Smith in the 2nd! He'd bring that explosiveness to this offense that we're so badly missing!

At some point we need to address the obvious need that is LT but this class seems to be getting weaker and weaker with each passing week

It's happening

We have extra picks. I see us utilizing them to move up at some point.  Getlleman even said in his pre-draft presser that havin 9 picks means going after less UDFAs. And we all know how he loves the UDFA market.  I think we'll see us move up in the 3rd round.

Gettleman also he doesn't want to give up his 2nd and 3rd round picks because they're too valuable...but the 2nd and 3rd round picks don't have to be at 57 or 89 either.

It could also mean he isn't opposed to trading picks from Rounds 4 - 7 to move up. He was saying its important to have a pick in Rounds 1, 2 and 3. He isn't opposed to trading. He's just opposed to using picks from Rounds 2 and 3 as the ammo.

Apparently Gettleman said he won't be trading up in rounds two or three, but that doesn't jive with some things I have heard. 

 

 

 

Also, I drank too much last night. I blame all of you. 

 

Which players do you think they value enough to move up and get?

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
