Trading down is risky if they are high on one particular player. If their 3 are Corral, Pickett, and Willis and Pickett and Willis are drafted before 6 they might have to pull the trigger and take Corral at 6.. 

Trading down in the 1st round for additional picks is good in theory in some cases. But, it can be dangerous if you miscalculate would the other teams might do. I'd hate to trade back and miss the targeted player at a position as important as QB.

I agree with you, if Corral's checks all the boxes and the Pickett and Willis are gone, I'd take Corral at 6...if you're dead set on taking a QB in the 2022 draft.

His style of play does not seem like it will translate to the next level or will hold up past 6 games.  Malik has that Steve McNair lower body and does not take the same hits Matt Corral does. 

That's just a matter of being smart. Corral is teachable. I don't believe for a moment that he won't learn how to slide and get down.

In doing mock drafts, trading out of the top 11-12 sucks. So does not having a 2nd or 3rd round pick. Not a fun year to run draft simulations.

I've been doing a lot of simulations involving trading down.  Two options I've done.  

Trade with ravens.  6 for 14, 45 and a late round. Reasons why they may move up.  Offensive tackle, Defensive line, or corner.  

What  we do with picks.  14. Zion ( oline is set) 45.  Top linebacker or defensive end.  

Another fun one is trading 6 for the Lions 32, 34 and third round. 

This is a trade up to take Willis. They take Hutchinson at 2 then trade up for Willis.  

Linebacker, safety and defensive lineman will still be strong at this point.  So a haul of Moyfe and Brisker for instance. 

As far as Corral he is really interesting.  Live arm and competed in SEC.   Pickett and Willis scare me.

Wanted the Giants to trade up for Mahomes hard. Thought he was the best in the class (he was right).

He told the USA today his rankings for the 2018 draft:

 1. Allen
2. Jackson
3. Darnold
4. Rosen
5. Rudolph
6. Mayfield

 

I assume these are the rest after Mahomes?  If so, he nailed the top 3.  probably Mayfield, Darnold, Rudolph and Rosen in that order after.

I wonder what his take is on who's the best in this class.  I hope Rhule listens to him.

Looking like free agent tackle or QB; get the other in the draft. 

Agreed.

I'm hoping that whoever they agree with as a free agent, they can put off finalizing / announcing the deal until after the draft so as not to tip their hand.

    • The only WR that makes sense in the first is KC Concepcion. He fills multiple roles in the offense and is a PR specialist.
    • That depends upon what happens with receiver this year and what happens with free agency next year. Hopefully we'll be good by addressing receiver this year (regardless of whether we snag one in the first round or not). If we don't and are unlucky enough for to Coker get hurt (and X solidifies his bust status, and JAGs be JAGing), then we may be fùçked! But I assume that Dan Morgan and company will feel compelled to look for answers in free agency and use that to set up the draft just like this offseason.  Reality is not as simple as we drafted this position X times in a row in the first. If you're suggesting that we could draft a position in the first four times in a row, that's not likely. At some point probability has to be taken into account. I mean, how many years in a row can you be unlucky with one position?  As I've said at times before, you try and plan for the long term personnel-wise and cap-wise of course, but things happen so, in a sense, you still must look at each season--each "team" if you will--unto itself each season. So many things can happen between now and then. A major industry can profoundly impact the bigger picture (like this year), someone could offer you a trade proposal that you can't resist, players might not have progressed to your expectations--you know, things like that. Moreover, you have to be aware of the dynamics of each draft class, including the fact that there could be unexpected draft risers and fallers during the college season. That's a lot. As of today, we expect the 2027 draft to have more exclamations than question marks at OT and the QB class and WR group is expected to be exceptionally strong. We'll have a clearer picture of whatever we'll have to focus on next year at this time.  Lastly, keep in mind that there's always more than one way to get you to where you want to go. The yearly puzzle is not static, it's dynamic and complex.   
    • I'm fine with Thieneman or McNeil-Warren.. Rodriguez won't last until 51 so they would have to trade up, he may end up being a late first round selection. Anthony Hill Jr. is more likely to be available. I don't expect defense in the first round now after the murmurings of finding another weapon for Bryce.
