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.

    • I was never onboard with Morgan to begin with.  The dude always seemed a hammer short of a full tool bag, maybe too many concussions.  He was a Fitterer hold over and I thought he should have been gone when Fitts went.  He literally made it to NFL GM with no credentials to speak of other than a playing career.  Shorts stints of personnel management for the Seahawks and Bills, neither organization choosing promotion or retention.  I believe Morgan was added as a friendly face to sooth the a fanbase that was growing to hate Tepper and probably retained for the same reason.  Morgan never coached, had minimal front office experience and the GM he "assisted" was deservedly fired.  From what I can find online he received a BA in Liberal Arts from Miami so that isn't exactly a qualification either.  
    • If you really want to change the identity of the culture, then your opinion may indeed be the way to go. 1) I see nothing from our drafts since 2020 to indicate that either the scouts or the GM's are shrew evaluators of college talent. 2) A new GM should be able to hire a coach since his livelihood is directly affected by how well the coach can get the team to perform on Sundays. The only time I'm ok with a GM keeping the coach that proceeded his hiring is if the new GM wants to work with the coach. Ideally, He should have final say over the coach instead of the owner. And, that coach and GM need to be in sync on how the team should be run on both sides of the ball. 3) A new coach should be able to pick his own staff. If he wants to keep a coach already on the staff that's fine. A new HC hire shouldn't be told that you have to use this guy for one of the jobs, especially a position as important OC or DC.
    • The crazy thing is some of these plays that went down to like 2 on the play clock were basic inside zone runs. That poo shouldn't take 30+ seconds to decide when you are down 24... It's not like they had to hot route multiple receivers and change blocking assignments after lining up. It's almost like Canales has somebody else's playbook and needs to flip through 10 pages to try and figure out what play he is going to run
