We need to trade up to four for a legitimate tackle. Lions don't need one. Jags will just take another qb

Nah, we should b able get LT #2 or #3 unless a team trades ahead of us.  Some stud DEs in this draft and that will eat up a couple of picks ahead of us.

Get a LT like Charles Cross in the 1st. Plays in a passing offense and gave up 1 sack and 6 pressures in 500 plus passing attempts.
 
Trade into the second and get the Nevada QB, Strong.
 
Use everything else for OL 

Several of the mocks that I've seen have Cross as the best offensive lineman available at the spot where we're likely to be picking.

Take the center from Iowa…the interior of our OL is the first place to start 

And yes we need a QB, too bad we don’t have a second rounder

id Trade down if we can get a 1st and 2nd

I am 100% in on that dude but we actually will probably be picking ahead of his range. If we fug up and accidentally win another game, he is the guy.

trade back 

This is the only logical option, we don't have a 2nd or 3rd, we need to trade back and acquire multiple picks. Spend money on a PROVEN tackle if available, and use the picks to supplement the interior OL where there's usually more options, unless a Tackle falls to our new pick via trade back. 

Since this is logical, we'll likely draft a LB'er.

Sigh.

 

Its not logical if you try and force it and not get value.  For us to trade back someone has to fall in love with a qb and then blow us away with an offer.  I just dont see it this draft.  Its top heavy with lineman and motherfuger we have to capitalize on it

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
