Draft - trade up/trade down hypotheticals


PleaseCutStewart

Recommended Posts

I feel like we need more draft picks because we have a lot of needs with a good amount of expiring contracts.

I would like to see if we could trade down to #13 and switch with the Colts and get their pick #13 and their 2nd round pick (I don't think they believe Brissett is their franchise QB). I think we could still get an impact day 1 starter at 13 (I see 1 of the top 3 tackles or Kinlaw still being around). With that extra 2nd rounder, we could use that towards a C/G.

Colts have been rumored to be interested in Herbert in the 1st round. If we can get them to scare enough to trade up to 7, that would be awesome. And let’s you we trade Cam to a team like LAC for a 2nd round. Now we can have #13 where we can still get still a very good player along with three 2nd rounders that should be in the top 15 or so picks. That’s four picks in the top 40-50 picks.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
