If tanking is really the goal...

An option that hasn't been considered, if we are truly not concerned about 2020 and want to land Lawrence next year then qb is off the table. We have discussed moving up for Burrow, but what about hitting up the ole ball coach in an attempt to snag Young? It has been report that Washington loves Tua or are at least is considering him. 

That said they probably trying to drum up trade interest but if they are serious I would at least hear them out and consider the price point. Even after that if they do draft Tua or someone else trades up for him I hit up Detroit and see what their asking price is. Chase Young is being far under sold in this draft. And with addison likely walking we dont have a prove 4-3  edge rusher.

Young is probably a more athletic version of the Bosa's before him and after a year or two would probably among the best pass rushers in the NFC. Grabbing him would give us a dominate force for years to come but wouldn't be enough to stop the tank from sinking completely. If the goal is Lawrence for next season it should be quality not quantity we are after this season. 

You dont want get to good to soon, but having a gem of this caliber would be beneficial in the long run... question is what would it cause to get to 2 or 3?

You don't trade up to #2 to take a DE. Only QB's are worth that type of value. No thanks on that.

It's been done for a position of less value. Running backs no less. If The 49ers went from picking second to the super bowl largely on defense off the bosa rookie of the year impact, and made a pro bowl why should you not? It's already known to be the second most important position in football so I dont see your logic. Oh I see you rather trade up for a QB already on injury life support... nevermind.

https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart.asp  Big difference between 7 and 8. according to the draft table  their pick is worth 2600 ours 1500. one and 2 gets you to 2000 alone. any assortment of next years 2 or some 3rd rounders could easily make up the difference from there. I didnt say it would be cheap. but surely worth a discussion. Yes it would be costly, But what is a top 5 rusher worth for the next 9 or so years? surely worth what we have been getting out of the second and 3rd round.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
