A little more complicated for me. We have the #6 pick then nothing till the 4th, so we don't have a lot of wiggle room.

In addition, I believe that we not only want but need a Left Tackle and I think we'll draft one at 6. As far as another QB, I think we'll bring Simone in to compete but I think we're rolling with Darnold this year.

The worst part about this plan would be if we played ourselves out of a top QB in the next draft. 

But also a possibility would be drafting a LT at 6 and trading everything else to jump back in.

We'll either hold on to what we've got and make two picks that will contribute, potentially start, or...

We'll trade back and forth, give up some from next year, and come away with two picks that will contribute and potentially start.

Really, that's kind of what most teams end up with, plus some special teams contributors for a year or two.

I’m going to guess they trade future picks to gain some more picks in this draft. 

I'm getting the feeling Fitterer would trade a young promising player for a couple of picks in this draft. He mentioned that as an option in the video from the conference and again in the interview on the way back. It was a strange thing to throw out there, twice.  I think he's trolling the waters first more picks already and it's not coming from next year.

We are going to trade back just a couple spots to still secure a OT and then draft a QB with the next pick 

If we were willing to give up 3 #1s for Watson then we are willing to trade back up if we like a QB.  Move down slightly grab OT.  Spend future picks to move back up for QB.  Why not?  Nothing is guaranteed next draft.  

Personally would be stoked in getting Neal\Ikey or Cross and then move up for Pickett.

    • When Parcell’s said Bryce better “walk on water”…..the implied concern wasn’t that the tiny QB could survive being hit.  It was acknowledging he would have to be extremely special to overcome the handicaps he would face at this level.  Which he isn’t and can’t.  which isn’t just being hit.  It’s being able to play in an NFL pocket and make NFL throws from it….and that ultimately is Bryce’s problem.  He doesn’t play well from a NFL pocket and can’t make all the throws as needed.  He can’t see as others can.  Which impacts the throws he does and doesn’t take.  It also impacts him bailing and killing plays and turning them into scrambles/dead plays 
    • 9:30 kick off here in Scotland, which is better than the 01:20 early hours of Monday that I feared. Will definitely be watching, but probably wouldn't if it had been 0120 as I need to be up for work at 05:45. Falcons Saints is 6pm on the Sunday so will watch that too if it becomes relevant
    • So much revisionist history around the pre-draft Bryce hype. The media was practically united in saying that if he were a couple inches taller he'd be the perfect prospect and it was just a question of whether he'd hold up in the NFL being that small. The Panthers did not create the mythos around him they were just the team that bought in. The team was largely praised for the move after and for surrounding him with what was considered an all-star coaching staff at the time.  Yeah part of the fanbase wanted Stroud but let's be real, we're coming from an oversized franchise QB who injured himself out the league. There was some analysis here on the limitations of Bryce's game but people were mostly just concerned he was going to turn into dust when he got sacked in the NFL.
