Trade down opportunities were there

95% positive it the was the giants who wanted to take mahomes.

What is this love fest with Mahomes? I watched some game tape of his and I didn't see any zip on any of his throws. He's got a noodle arm that not even Clausen or Teddy can match.

We have a team on the cusp, the whole trading down philosophy is for teams desperate to fill multiple key roles.

If anything move up. Guarantee yourself that you are going for a starter and not just some guy that you're drafting to say you filled a need.

Max Henson's piece from inside the war room makes it clear there was no hesitation.

I knew the pick came in with five minutes left. The time that was taken off the clock was used to call and talk to McCaffrey.

Article also confirms that Gettleman didn't even take the calls that came in. He just told his assistant to say no.

    • One thing I didn’t consider is how thin this draft is at quarterback. That’s going to drive up the market for backups and borderline starters like Willis, Jones, and Jameis Winston. Because of that, we’ll most likely be priced out of the market for this tier of backup. 
    • We've already beat the #1 seed twice, why not one more? (Packers and Rams were both #1 seed at the time we played)
    • My determination has come down to this. Based on recent QB history, has Bryce's improvement warranted 50m per season? Lamar is the only original team QB to play on his 5th year. The others took major deals at the end of the 3rd, before or just after the option was signed. Chances are, we're getting asked for the same.  I haven't rooted for Bryce to fail. I've rooted for him to succeed so big that them signing that extension would give me no worries about our future at QB at all. We haven't seen that level of play consistently that this year. We haven't seen it in the past 6 games.  We're about to be at a threshold with Bryce and I worry about what this front office will do. We have a history of bad decision making and Morgan has been part of that group making those decisions. I don't want Carolina in the same boat Arizona and Miami are right now. It has nothing to with being right. It has to do with wanting to win for more than a single season. We've never had back to back winning seasons. Faith in their abilities is not warranted at this point.
