What draft picks do we have left?

I'll bet Fitterer trades back from our high first and picks up and additional 2nd or 3rd, if not more.  That's his modus operandi.  

 

If it were up to me, I'd stand pat in the first and take a blue-chip LT.  Just permanently fix a serious problem on the OL.  

The Houston 4th will be top of that round so a C or G should be available.  Last season the Falcons drafted a C at 4-9 and he's currently competing to start.  So you can find good interior linemen at that point of the draft.

You know, I was on the fence about Rhule being fired until I just saw those draft picks on paper. That is freaking ridiculous. 

The pattern of trades is clear evidence that Rhule was not rebuilding but was trying to win right now.  He was trading away future picks for players who will help this season.   

It's the total opposite strategy of trying to build up the team for the future, which is what he should have been doing.

Yeah I stand pat and take bpa on the board instead of that craziness last draft.

i’d consider next years 3rd bundled with Sam if that get us out of majority the cap hit he brings next year, and use that money to fill some other positions of need in FA(granted I haven’t taken a look)

I know the above is a pipe dream but desperate times call for desperate measures

No trading away future picks.   This team has a lot of guys on rookie deals so cap space is not a huge problem.   Just eat the 18M for Darnold and move on.   The salary is only for one year.   Then those $$ come off the cap for 2023.

I’m assuming Rhule is gone this year and a new coach is brought in, I don’t want him handcuffed to Sam because of Rhule, a 3rd is the most I’d give up since I expect us to get a few comp picks next year with guys like donte, Gilmore etc possibly leaving.

with a new coach there’s no need to waste a season trotting Sam out there again.

    • When I tell people I was at that game, they usually say oh that’s so cool you had the experience. I call it soul crushing. Why? The weeks and months leading up to it were great, the team was fun to watch every week…some weeks the offense was unstoppable and carried the team (saints and giants road games), other times the defense carried the load (jaguars, tampa). Lots of back and forth games against good teams (Seattle and Indy). Good young players on the team, but the veteran leadership was incredible…from Cam, Olsen, Kalil and J Stew to Luke, TD, Norman, Tillman, Jared Allen, CJ. Role players like Fozzy Whitaker, Cotchery (he caught that MFer), Philly brown, Kyle love, AJ Klein, and so on.  The Friday before the nfc championship my wife and I after a few drinks said let’s see what prices look like for flights/accommodations and we got to talking about how much prices would increase if we waited until we found out if we would be in the big game. We said screw it, we are only out $200 if we have to cancel.  Of course we come out and just pulverized the cardinals in front of the most raucous crowd by far we’ve ever had. We had no idea what we would do for game tickets and then found out a neighbor who worked for the team could get us 2 for face value (each employee got two of their own for free, something cool that JR did).  But then the NFL mafia decided that the storyline of manning going out on top like Elway would give them more goodwill than a non traditional QB who didn’t connect with their target demo and the rest is history. I never have and never will watch that game again. I am just hoping I can see them win one in the 2nd half of my life.
    • Dude you are smart fan. 3 on 0 breakaways won’t matter who is in net. You gotta be better on this one. 
    • Raiders are gonna get a good one. Rather have Mendoza fly out and play for the Panthers tomorrow than Bryce
