For anyone uninterested in the fifth round...

I hope we move up to the 4th. 

With what?  The 2nd to last pick of the draft at #252?   Don't see it happening.   Saw someone talk about throwing in our 3rd round pick for next year presuming we're getting a 3rd round comp pick for J-NO.  Dang, using a 3rd to pick a player in the 4th?  Getts is getting crucified already, can't imagine how that would go down!

I would absolutely like to trade our 3rd round comp next year to move back up into the 4th.  The comp pick is near the 4th round anyway, and I would really like a guy out of this draft I feel can make an impact in year 1.  Butler is a maaaaaaybe, but he's still an unknown commodity behind two guys already on the bench in Soliai and Love who have played very well either for us (Love) or other teams (Soliai).

I really want Devontae Booker or Alex Collins and I don't feel good about them lasting to our pick in the 5th... Trade next year's comp, next year's 7 and this year's 7 if it'll add anything.  Toss in next year's 6 if it'll help.  Gettleman doesn't value those late picks anyway.

I'm pretty sure you cannot trade comp picks.

It's really hard to trade a compensation pick that hasn't been awarded yet.

Eagles already did it.  This has been discussed ad nauseum here.  You can trade a future comp pick with the condition that if you don't get what you expect to, you give a different pick (for example, our actual 3rd round pick).  And Gettleman seems to be playing FA right now with the intent on maintaining that 3rd round comp pick we're set to get for Norman.  Doubt he picks anyone up before the 12th.

I believe Gman will trade into the forth using that 7th whatever damage that does, then take another corner or safety. Harlan Miller still there. Couple of safety prospects we have been linked to as well.

I would like Cash (but not over Booker or Collins).  I WOULD have liked Miller if we hadn't already taken those two CBs we already took.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
