Eagles jump to #6 to grab a stud DE. We get #15 (Corral), #51 (best OL / DL available), #101, and Mr. Mustache  - who can compete with Corral or back him up for years to come.

Edit - OOPS, their pick is # 18, we might need a little more from them to make this happen

I could easy live with this sceniro if it happened.

I think the cap room is insurance--if they trade back, do not get the qb, they can bring one in if necessary.  However, I really think part of the plan at QB is to see how Darnold does with an actual OL--

I think that is plan C, but it is a plan. 

I can see the Panthers wanting to give Darnold at least one more chance to prove they were not as inept as it has appeared by signing him and giving up draft choices. 

It is highly unlikely the Panthers will be a playoff team this year, so that gamble may not be as bad as it would appear.

Funny how every fanbase wants to trade down and none want to trade up. Good look finding a trade partner, unless they intend on getting little to nothing in return I don’t see it.

 

If you think you have a franchise QB at 6 you pick him, it’s that simple.

Panthers are going to trade back at least once and walk away with Howell or Corral.  So it was written. 

I cant tell you all how much I am looking forward to my favorite 3 days of the year

I would be perfectly fine if they traded for Jimmy G and or Baker and Drafted a QB then sat said QB they drafted for the year.

I wanted to make the huge move to trade up for Burrow after we hired Joe Brady.

Yup you got teams like the Chiefs that have like too many draft picks and might move up but I really don't see us moving back to the 29th spot. Maybe the Eagles for a decent value, Seahawks/WFT moving up and giving us a 3rd or something to take a player we actually want...Horrible year to not have our 2nd and 3rd rounders. At least O-line is deep and there should still be some good players left in the 4th/5th

I would love someone to go to another teams forum and propose these trade ideas being floated round this thread. They will laugh you right out the forum.

 

The fact that in these made up scenarios we are only getting a second or third in return for swapping a top 10 pick goes to show how little value a top 10 pick in this draft has, no team would really want to trade.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • 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.
