Hypothetical Draft day Trade

[The Huddler]

Not saying we will do this..

 

or SHOULD do this..

 

...but ive been thinking of "what would it take to get Trevor Lawrence?" 

 

What if we packaged CMC to move up to #1 OVR? 

Is that a trade rape against us? I mean, Trevor Lawrence is the best QB prospect since who knows who..     We have a Stud ass, but expensive player at a position that typically isn't given that kind of money. We are in a rebuild.. we could add a RB in their prime on a cheap deal (aka a RB drafted in the next 2-3 years) down the line when we are ready to win, and that can be like the missing piece. 

 

i could also see why a lot of people would be like "hell no", and i don't know which side I'm on. 

 

But i'd give up CMC if it means landing the best QB since sliced bread, earning multiple SBs. 

 

What do yall think?    How far ahead is Lawrence ahead of the other QBs? 

 

It wouldn't have surprised me if we resigned CMC to retain an asset, you use later down the line..

 

It would take A LOT to get a team to move off the #1 pick, but make them choose between Lawrence straight up, or a QB that they like a whole with the #3-4 pick a lot and CMC..

hmmmm...

Jags probably don't care about a RB they aren't going to part with pick 1 bc you offered a high paid rb that just got done with a injury plagued season

wow i thought id be gashed for even suggesting a thought of trading CMC to move up

[Panthercougar68]

The Jags would probably have taken it if James Robinson didn't emerge as a RB1 so it would take a lot more than CMC.

Not a fan of giving away CMC but this team needs a QB of the future.

Pretty sure that's a $24m cap hit if you trade away McCaffrey.

 

[Panthers8969]

Lol, no way jags take that

[Daddy_Uncle]

lol 

[Moo Daeng]

I can't imagine anyone would take take that. It would require more.

Plus the cap hit on the Panthers

Methinks y'all underestimate how average Teddy is. A better QB would help a lot. A better OL would help a lot. No reason to trade a quarter to get 5 nickles.

17 after this season, enough to eliminate any chance at Moton or Samuels

It's getting ridiculous around here.  Ok, *more* ridiculous.

"What would it take to get Lawrence?" . . . "What if we did ______ to get Lawrence".  News Flash:  There is no sane move we can make that will push either the Jets or Jags (whoever ends up "winning" that contest) out of that slot to draft Trevor Lawrence.  Sure, we can do something extremely stupid, like Ricky Williams level of stupid, and move up there.  Those teams understand the value of that pick IN THIS DRAFT.

Short of that, content yourself with the fact that we cannot get Trevor Lawrence.

As an aside, imagine if you will what happens if Trevor Lawrence turns into Ryan Leaf after you pulled a Ricky Williams.  You just mortgaged your future on a flop.  You've just ruined your franchise for five years.  Minimum.  This ain't Madden career mode.

Even more so, they also have James Robinson on a rookie deal who has been balling out.

[SetfreexX]

Y'all out here with Madden trades, do you even realize the dead money we'd have to ear for that while we're already in a less than ideal cap spot. 

Stay put, draft a QB, if the QB you want is gone, trade down as we need more talent over all.
