Maybe it is just me but why would we trade up from 8th to 7th with Detroit to pick a guy who will be there anyway. If they really wanted Lance they wouldn't make the trade and they likely won't go QB after trading for Goff. They need weapons around him like WRs.  If Detroit wanted a QB I could see us trading ahead of Detroit if we thought they wanted Lance but not with Detroit. Tell me where my thinking is flawed 

Lets say Fields is still on the board at 7 and we really like Fields.  Detroit calls and says "give us a third to move up one spot" or we are taking a future 1st from WFT to trade with them.  We give up a third to move one spot to insure we get the QB we like.

Then unless we think Lance is so much better than Fields we just let them and pick Fields and save our picks. Or that team picks Fields and we get Lance. 

You are thinking like a fan, not a team.  Most fans will be happy with any of the top-4 QBs.  Chances are though, that most teams, after lengthy evaluations, will definitely like one QB more than the other.  History though tells us that often those teams guess wrong, and sometimes not getting what you want ends up better.

That is pretty reasonable.

We get a future franchise QB without trading multiple first round picks? Consider me sold. 

What are the gas prices like in 2027? I assume you've time travelled back here to give us this "future franchise QB" information.

    • Damn I liked A'Shawn too. This is basically a heads up we're planning on cutting you move.  Robinson wasn't the best but I loved his attitude and effort on the field. He held that entire dline together when Brown went down iirc..granted we finished that season as the worst rushing defense in modern NFL history.  If Wharton would have performed up to atleast half of his salary last season, I'd feel a little better about it. We do need that cap space though. 
    • 13. Carolina is coming. The Panthers are well thought of around the league. Their "process" seems sound. I think their off-season will be very interesting to keep an eye on. They made the playoffs, but they're not yet knocking on the door. (Offense was 26th in EPA/play.) I think it's imperative they don't overestimate where they are in their build. They can't throw a ton of money around in FA to "make a run now". They need to be intentional about building a solid foundation. (IMO) And from what I know about the team... I think they will be. Sidenote: I have my eye on offense there, not defense. They HAVE to leave next season with a strong opinion on Bryce Young. They need to put pieces around him to do that. Can't be left wondering what he would have looked like with "better OL play" or "more pass catchers". They have to know. (That part is purely my opinion. No one told me that.) https://x.com/lindsay_rhodes/status/2027212533417869499?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
    • Because this DL is completely reliant on Brown being available and being a stud. Without him we were the worst D in history. The Wharton signing last year reeked of desperation. He just isn't a great fit for us schematically and I think we panicked a little bit when we missed out on Milton Williams who would have been a great fit.
