Agree, but a top 5 pick could really bring in Day 1/2 draft picks in a trade back scenario. 
 

Last draft, the #6 pick went for:

2021 #12, 2021 4th, and 2022 1st. 
 

The #10 pick went for:

2021 #12, 2021 3rd. 
 

That additional 1st rounder would be huge in 2023 when we may still be looking for QB/OL help. 

Being able to trade back and still acquire one of the top OL prospects + gamble on a QB in the 2nd would be incredible. Or grab the #1 QB but still grab OL in the 2nd.

Either way would be awesome, but I'm concerned about nobody wanting to trade up plus these assclowns picking another CB 😭

Let’s pretend we are able to successfully trade back twice in the draft and look at last years draft for reference.

So assuming picks are valued similarly  this year and we have trade partners, we could potentially flip a #6 for around:

2022 1st rd pick #20

2022 4th rd pick #123

2023 1st rd pick

2023 1st rd pick

2023 4th rd pick


I don’t think anyone would be mad at that. I would then use pick #20 on a QB and heavy on OL for the rest. Start the QB you draft next year and if it goes terribly, you are in prime position with draft capital to move up for Bryce Young in 2023. You can also flip the #20 QB for draft picks like the Jets did with Darnold to further build OL. Who knows? Maybe the QB you draft is solid and you’re left with tons of draft capital to address other holes. I believe Fitt can and will attempt to trade back.

The Lions, Giants and Steelers have their eyes out for Kenny Pickett from Pitt.............he looks like a Josh Allen type QB with even better deep ball accuracy..........

All I want from this game is for brady to get badly injured

You talkin gettin Romoed Thomas Davis style? Or more of a Theismann kind of thing? Me... I'd be fine with a good old back breaker like Carson Palmer took from Greg Hardy.

I hate wanting to lose and when the game starts I will be pulling for the Panthers to win.

That said, Tampa Bay and New Orleans needs to keep winning.  Tampa wins out they could still get the #1 seed, so they'll be motivated.

New Orleans is in a battle for a wild card spot.   So they'll be focused.  

Unless our O-line somehow manages to do what they haven't been able to do since we started the season.  I don't see us improving on our 29th ranked offense.

    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
