You take Sewell. It’ll be a make it or break it year for Teddy with a legit offensive line, the best RB in football and even if we don’t bring Samuel back we have two of the better receivers in the game coming back. Maybe with more consistency on the left side Teddy would take more chances. If not, we lose a lot again and will be around to pick the #3 QB of the next class.

It would be a good problem to have. If Cincy has 4 would they offer some sweet draft capital to trade up one spot?

I don't think they would.  I would certainly love if they did in that situation.  It would be basically paying us to not draft Sewell who is their clear top target.  Unfortunately, our need for a QB is pretty darn clear at this point, so it seems likely Cincy would just stand pat.

If we draft Sewell, Cincy's pick becomes more valuable to lower teams who want a QB.  If we draft a QB, Cincy gets their LT.  No motivation for them to move really.

Never bank on who may be there or a trade. Get who you want without mortgaging more than necessary.

I’d go Wilson easy. Wasn’t last year the generational can’t miss on the top LT prospect draft? Becton, Wirfs, Wills, etc? I feel like I hear that every draft.

Every year is some 'generational' talent.. draft jargon..

If you have the chance to draft a franchise QB without having to give up draft picks you take it 10/10 times. Trent Scott has played LT the majority of the season for us and we have still had a decent line and have been in almost every game that we have lost. QB is the deciding factor on winning or not in the NFL.

This is a great question, because Sewell could very well be the best player in this draft. 

I still think you go with whichever QB they like best. Likely Lance or Wilson. 

Sewell is a great prospect but Lawrence is the best player in the draft.

That said I’d go QB. Having Sewell at LT doesn’t make Teddy a better QB. Maybe he’s sacked a little less but it doesn’t make his ducks to Moore go faster and more accurate. Why keep wasting our talented players with a mediocre QB?

Groom a QB and if you don’t want to save $8M on Teddy, let him get whacked more, keep losing close games and get a LT next year. Extend Moton and go G on day 2 and day 3. We’ve at least got 1 5th comp, so draft 3 potential G/Cs to groom instead of pulling UDFAs and hope we get a Norwell. Add some other draft pieces and live through another Teddy suck year and get ready for prime time starting 2022.

      https://www.yahoo.com/sports/article/versatile-2nd-db-named-panthers-154026075.html Smith-Wade's ability to play corner, nickel and safety makes him valuable to a young defense trying to rebuild after finishing last in the NFL a year ago. "Chau took advantage of an opportunity,'' coach Dave Canales said. "He made tackles. He had an opportunity on an interception, and he made it.'' Our defense has got to come alive for us to have a chance of winning our Division!

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.
