I guess if we can get him for a song and a dance, sure. There is not really a reason to trade significant draft capital or a good player for a partial season fix.

I wonder what we'd be in it for...draft picks falling faster than our players at this point.

I mean, it would have to be 2023 picks, I would think. Can we afford to lose any more 2022 picks??

Round 1

The Carolina Panthers traded their second-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft to the New York Jets in exchange for QB Sam Darnold. They also traded their fourth-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft to the Jets as part of the deal for Darnold.

In acquiring CB C.J. Henderson, the Panthers traded their third-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft to the Jacksonville Jaguars. They also received a fifth-round 2022 NFL Draft pick, with TE Dan Arnold heading in the opposite direction.

Round 4 (from Texans): The Panthers received the Houston Texans’ fourth-round 2022 NFL Draft pick as part of a trade in the 2021 NFL Draft that saw the Texans select Michigan WR Nico Collins.

Round 5 (from Jaguars): Acquired in the C.J. Henderson trade.

Round 5:

Round 6:

Round 6 (from Raiders): The Panthers received the Las Vegas Raiders’ sixth-round selection in exchange for LB Denzel Perryman and a 2022 NFL Draft seventh-round pick. As a result, the Panthers don’t own their seventh-round pick.

Round 7 (from Titans): The Panthers received this seventh-round pick from the Titans (via the Dolphins) following the trade to Miami of OT Greg Little.

 

Well poo overall we still have a number of picks but 2nd/3rd rounders can usually yield starters so it looks worse than it is overall as we still have 7 picks but the value of our picks is looking rough.

We are basically down to getting one player in the two deep with the first rounder. MAYBE a shot at a second in the 4th. The rest are just longshot picks. 

I suspect we will see them trade down out of the first and get 2nd/3rd round picks.

According to Anderson, the Chiefs could be competing with the Carolina Panthers, the New Orleans Saints, and the San Francisco 49ers for Mack’s services. In a sense, having multiple teams interested could generate a bit of a bidding war, but everyone also knows that Mack is buried on the Colts depth chart for various reasons and it’s hard to see anyone giving up anything substantial for Mack—including the Chiefs.

Mack was the Colts fourth round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft and quickly rose up the depth chart to provide solid production with back to back seasons at or near 1,000 rushing yards. He had 17 total touchdowns between the 2018-19 seasons and looked like he would be the Colts featured back for some time, until he tore his Achilles in the opening game of the 2020 season. Just like that, everything changed for Mack and the Colts, who went on to draft and use Jonathan Taylor as the bell cow instead.

Mack returned to the Colts on a one-year deal this past offseason, but so far he has only 25 carries for 96 yards in limited duty—good for a 3.9 yards/carry average, which is far below his 4.4 career average there.

I was expecting that too. If there is a C where we pick I probably would just grab him in the first or if we can drop back and still get the C then do that. I just still think it'd be worth to go best OL available with our 1 and the rest of the picks are toss ups really but at least we've shown to be able to pick later in the rounds.

      An analysis of Brooks from The Fantasy Footballers provides possible insight as to why he's worth the price paid

      By TD alt · Posted

      Sometimes you get very valuable information from fantasy football sites. I found an analysis that you may want to read from The Fantasy Footballers. Perhaps you'll gain an insight as to why we moved up and got him. As always, here are a few snippets: "As expected, he dominated in the 2023 season. He averaged an impressive 2.03 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play, which ranks in the 86th percentile among all junior seasons since 2013." "Naturally, after initially playing behind two NFL-caliber running backs, Brooks’ career numbers do not jump off the page. However, his 2023 campaign gave us a glimpse of just how massive his upside could be at the next level. In fact, Brooks is one of only TWO running backs in this class to exceed 2.00 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play within their first three seasons in college."  "If you watch Jonathon Brooks’ film, you will find multiple plays in which he created yardage with his quick feet and lateral agility. He is elusive in open spaces and has an impressive ability to stack multiple cuts to avoid contact. Combined with his impressive burst and acceleration, Brooks can be a matchup nightmare in the second and third levels of the defense." "While Brooks is not the most physical running back, he does have a knack for absorbing contact and bouncing off defenders. You see this time and time again in his film." "He showcased a willingness to initiate contact with the pass rusher, the strength to maintain blocks, and the quickness to adjust to the defender’s moves. In addition, per PFF, Brooks was a top-three running back in the 2024 class in pass-blocking grade last season. He was also one of only two running backs in the class to average a 0% pass block pressure rate, highlighting just how effective he was as a blocker." "In short, Brooks has tremendous upside as a prospect. Even with his ACL injury, I would still be comfortable drafting him in the early second round of rookie drafts. In fact, I would not be shocked if he finished his career as the most productive running back in this class. However, we just need to temper our expectations for his rookie year as he slowly ramps up to full health." Marvin Elequin provides more here (including video clips): https://www.thefantasyfootballers.com/dynasty/2024-rookie-profile-rb-jonathon-brooks-fantasy-football/   Basically, Brooks has the potential to be a beast, and was well worth the 46th pick (and most mocks had him going mid second round anyway). He's not JAG. Someone had to make the move and take him, and we were the ones to do it. He's elusive, has good speed and acceleration, exceptional contact balance, and is an outstanding blocker. Just like any nice RB transitioning to the league, he will need to get used to taking what the defense gives him, while also showing discriminating patience, but he has demonstrated some ability on that front in college. Brooks' only real knock is the ACL. But ACLs aren't career ending anymore, or even skill ending as evidenced by Dalvin Cook, Todd Gurley and others. We'll just need to temper our expectations during his rookie campaign while he gets back to form. Once he does, we'll finally have the talented three-down back that has eluded us since Stew retired.

      2024 Who would you have picked

      By R0CKnR0LLA · Posted

      2.43 : Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon 2.52 : Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas 3.65 : Junior Colson, LB, Michigan 3.79 : Blake Corum, RB, Michigan 4.101 : Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas 😎 5.141 : Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, C, Georgia 5.142 : Austin Booker, Edge, Kansas 5.155 : Christian Jones, OT, Texas Note, I traded down from 33 (took the Arizona/Atlanta trade up to 35 - might have actually been able to net an even better deal but whatever, I'll go with this). Took the Rams trade but stayed put at 52 and at the top of the 3rd.
