Draft Dream and Draft Nightmare

Nightmare - they draft a QB in the first round.   Then trade a 2023 first rounder to get back into the first round. 

Dream - boring.  They draft a OT.  They don't get trade happy to secure a bunch of late round picks.  Just use the dang 4th in 4th.

Dream - trade with Philly, get Minshew as part of a package of picks that includes a 1st and 2nd rounder.  I haven't done a deep dive on what the whole package would have to be to give them #6. Then draft an OT and use the second rounder on whatever QB is there that we like. 

Nightmare - draft a WR or a CB at #6. [edit to add: trade away our 2023 1st round pick]

Dream: Trading back to the mid-teens and getting Cross.  Dumping picks and resources into OL
 

nightmare:  pickett or Willis at 6 and drafting CB with our next pick.  Willis might end up being good but he’s not gonna improve with this staff imo.  He’s gotta go to a better franchise

let me issue a correction. 

Dream draft - GM trades Matt Rhule for a 7th rounder.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
