Quinten Johnston in the 1st, then Max Duggan in the 2nd.

Maybe not, but it would be odd to allow him to trade away CMC and turn down 1st round picks for Burns if he wasn't part of the long term plan IMO.  

I look at it as opposite with burns.  If he was in the long term plans then he would probably be more open to trading for future picks.  As it stands now I doubt he knows his future

Johnston is a fine player but honestly we already have someone very similar in TMJ.  We gotta go QB in the first…we can’t keep kicking the can there

That’s how I see it. Either trade up (or have a high pick) for Young or Stroud, or sit back and draft on upside with Levis or Richardson.

I am good not even drafting a qb at this point we got PJ and Matt we good for another year or two and see how it pans out I don’t think any prospects is better than pj right now. Get the best WR and DE or LB or DT 

I'm with you on this. Drafting a QB in the first just for the sake of drafting a QB in the first doesn't make a lot of sense to me. No one I've watched (honestly havent watched them all) really jumps out as "yeah, that's the guy." PJ is better than I thought and who the Hell knows what Corral can do? He wasn't exactly coached up this season. Go with best available and see what happens.

There comes a time to put all the chips in for a QB…if we like the right guy we have to treat this like no cost is too much.  I didn’t think Deshaun Watson was the way to go but Tepper was close to all in there.  The draft isn’t any different.  
 

Multiple firsts, players whatever…you have to go get that player

My problem would be this team has not been good at finding that QB.  Atrocious actually.  Very worried that they don’t know how to evaluate QBs.

Who is that player though? I haven't seen anyone worth betting the farm over. No one I've seen seems to have the it factor. Maybe they'll be good, who knows? I haven't really been particularly impressed

Why in the name of all that's holy am I looking at yet another thread about drafting a WR in the first when WR at present looks like a strength on this team (DJ solid, TMJ showing obvious potential now the Fhule is gone) when QB is the desperate need and the key weakness of our defense is like of pass rush outside of Burns?

Stop drooling over frisbee catching dogs because you're too focused on fantasy football and look at what's needed to actually win a SB. WR talent is abundant around the league and little evidence exists that elite WR talent matters to playoff success vs the two positions I named.

You’re living in the early 2010s. See SB last season, the 2 most arguably important players on those teams: Kupp and Chase. Not to mention virtually every top team has elite WR groups. MIA is finally on the upswing with Waddle and Hill leading the way. Minny would simply not be 6-1 without Jefferson. Allen has Diggs and Davis. And umm.. the undefeated Eagles have AJ and Smith rolling and are a big reason Hurts has been able to step it up.

That doesn’t mean we go WR rd 1 but your narrative doesn’t hold water. Elite WRs are what modern offenses are focusing on. 

And I’m sorry but it’s just not a strength for us. TMJ has shown us a nice game. Let’s see what happens.

      Wild Idea.. Trade for Shemar Stewart

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Yeah, when you draft a guy you have to understand and realize you're going to be giving him a contract commensurate with that draft position. It is what it is. If you don't want to do that for anyone on the board, trade down. Hell, pull a Vikings and sit on your ass and let the time run out and the next team up pick. LOL! But don't draft the guy and then think you're going to get away with some contract shenanigans. Hell, his agent can't allow it looking out for his own interests. If Stewart was willing to sign a deal wildly out of step with the norm on a bad way his agent would probably tell him he's got a walk. If I want to sign future 1st round draft prospects I can't be a part of this.

      Yea, I don't know why they are insisting this new clause to be be included. (well its money, its always money). Just the issue, or one of the big issues, is no other team is doing it. They are trying to start a trend..... guess what the team picked right after and before stewart didn't not have this clause in the contract and they have already signed. They totally look like the bad guy in all this and like I posted before, their rep is awful among agents.  Mike Brown uses his daughter negotiate contracts cause she took law courses. Look it up, many say if she is doing that, she is the GM... I bet you can not guess who the GM is....... save you some time, there isn't one.... so maybe it is the daughter....

      TIME TO SPECULATE

      Eh, I can see where you're coming from, but at the same time, unless the new jerseys were just god awful ugly, how many people would just cancel their order at that point? Those people, like myself, bought it because they wanted T-Mac's jersey, not because they loved the current uniforms and just wanted one. But I kinda hope they do give us new uniforms next offseason, just like with Cam, so this version of T-Mac's jersey will always be his "rookie jersey" which would be pretty neat.  It was pretty well known at the time that we were getting new jersey's that next season so I waited to get my Cam until then and got an Authentic one, which is great, but I do still kinda regret not having a Cam rookie jersey in my collection.
