McShay has us trading picks moving from 8th to 7th with Detroit to pick Lance

[pantherclaw]

Any team wanting a QB behind us will be offering up more than we'd offer up to move up 1 spot. 

 

Simple draft economics.

Thats fine, as I said whoever does that just makes our pick that much more attractive.  Keep pushing top talent down to 8.

Wow giving up picks to get the 4th/5th best qb in the draft? lol 

And it’s not just one spot value, going to have to offer more than the other teams 

The 4th or 5th QB taken doesn't necessarily mean he was the 4th or 5th QB on our draft board. You also can't look at things solely in terms of this draft class. There are 3-4 QBs in this draft who would be in #1 overall pick discussions in most draft classes.

Yeah man, I am not sure about that.  I doubt Lance is #1 under any circumstance.  Maybe fields but it seems teams are souring on him after evaluating.  Probably Wilson would go #1 and a hard no on Jones.

 

But just based on recent history 3 of the 5 will most likely flop out because they land in crappy situations without proper coaching.  If our staff feels like they can develop whoever is left then so be it if not I will not be mad making the 8 pick work whether its a tackle, surtain or trade back

That's your take and your opinion. You could be right, but you could also be wrong!

Well if they get considerably more compensation from another team, they might be willing to pass on their favorite player. 

Which is the correct move for them with the amount of wr

I was specifically talking about Lawrence, Wilson, Fields, and Jones. If Goff can go #1 then so could Jones.

4th/5th best to who? Teams obviously have guys valued differently

Probably but it seems the shine is coming off fast on Fields now that teams are digging into it.  His slow progressions,  weird motion and then there is this

It's also prime lying season. I'm not saying those reports are true or false, but I've definitely learned to take this type of stuff with a grain of salt in the weeks leading up to draft day.

Exactly. Simple logic which seems in short supply.

But again unless you have Lance way over Fields you will get one or the other. Or we could trade down and let someone who loves Fields give us the farm to get him and we can get a vet like Darnold for a 4th and draft a guy in the second and still be way ahead of the game. Especially if it true that we don't love anyone except for Trevor or Fields 

I'm very much falling in love with the idea of trading down / taking an elite player at #8 (preferably OT, but we'll see how the Draft falls) and trading a 3/4th rounder for Darnold.

Just take bpa at 8 and look get mond in the 2nd
