Trade Back Scenarios

If Lance is on the board I'm sprinting to the podium. But it's HIGHLY unlikely any of the top 4 QBs make it to 8 now. Lance is an absolute no brainer in that position he has talent off the charts and we still have Teddy to be a crash test dummy for a year while Lance develops. Next year we could use our first rounder on LT. Rounds 2-4 this year on CB and OG/C. 

If all 4 QBs are gone it's a much harder scenario. I take Slater or Sewell at 8 if both are there. If both are gone I agree the best move is to trade down and try to nab the VT OT

Lance is the absolute definition of boom or bust. One year of tape against marginal competition, but man he looked so good that season. The one game in ‘20 was pretty average, but I think with his athletic upside his absolute worst case scenario in the nfl is a vastly more dynamic Taysom Hill.

I have a feeling if we drafted him I would have the same reaction as when we drafted cam- apprehensive about the prospect of drafting him, but then super excited when it actually happens. I think Brady, coming from the saints would also try to get him in the mix his rookie season in some fashion, which would add some much needed sauce to a very predictable (boring) QB situation.

I agree, though I think Cam was a much more surefire prospect. 

I just think if you're drafting this high you have to swing for the fences and Lance is that.

Both our backup QBs will be gone . Only Teddy is under contract .  We can trade down and get Jones if the top 4 are gone .  We could also get Newman later as a backup QB .   This will give us extra picks . This could get interesting .
