Trading up for Burrow what would it cost?

https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2020-nfl-draft-who-could-trade-up-for-joe-burrow-at-no-1-and-what-such-a-move-would-cost/

 

What would it cost? 

Hill: No. 7, 38, 69, 2021 first and 2022 first for No. 1.

Traditional: No. 7, 2021 first and second for No. 1

Meers: No. 7 and 38 for No.1

What's the likelihood it happens?

A lot will depend on who the Panthers hire to replace Ron Rivera. If it's, say, Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman, he might want to stick with Newton given the success he has had with Lamar Jackson, and before that, Colin Kaepernick in San Francisco. If it's someone else and they want to start fresh with "their" quarterback, moving up for Burrow is a more realistic possibility, assuming Tua doesn't declare and that they don't consider Herbert a top-10 pick. We would put the chances at 35 percent.

In our latest mock draft, we had the Panthers taking wide receiver CeeDee Lamb.

I am not*in favor of taking a qb. This is just a hypothetical.

We can fix the O/Line with a good LG or LT and Center selection in this years draft.  We weren't even holding teams out of the backfield for a 3 second count and you were expecting us to pass.  There was no stepping up into the pocket cause it was collapsing when they did or a rusher was plowing through to the QB.  Give our QB's time to throw and we could have won more games this year even as poorly as the defense played.

Anything other than a concentrated effort to fix the oline through draft and FA and even coaching hire will make whoever takes snaps under center next year irrelevant. If it is Cam, he will have a slim chance indeed of making it through the season without further injury with our line as presently constructed. If it is a rookie, the risk of wasting said rookie's potential and leaving them shell shocked a la David Carr is high. If this season made anything abundantly clear, it is that our oline must be addressed first or who is under center won't matter much.

This board reminds me of the pre-Cam draft cycle

"ugh we have too many holes we can't go worrying about getting a franchise QB, go get Fairley!!!"

it's remarkable how this stupid notion won't just go away despite the overwhelming makeup of the league.

 

If you have a chance to get a franchise QB, you get one. Lol at obsessing over whose going to anchor your LG spot.

When Ditka was coaching the Saints, he gave his entire draft for a RB (Williams) and a first and a third the next year to move from #12 to #5.

Cincy ain't giving up on Burrow unless the whole farm is on the table.

Yeah, but I don't think they had a first rounder, IIRC...and it was actually the Saints.  To compensate, they had to give up the remainder of what they had in the draft.

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
