How much to move up to #2 in Draft?

Throw the draft value chart out. Per the chart, our 1st and 3rd. But the Niners spent three 1sts and a 3rd to go to #3 and per the chart it should've taken their 1st, 2nd and maybe a 6th. When it's for a QB and the phone is ringing the bidding goes wild quickly.

I fully expect the Bears to put that pick on the block if teams are clamoring for Young and Stroud.

Not sure how the Draft Value Charts work.. how much would it cost to move up from #9 to #2?

Would our 2nd rounder do the job?

In order to move up for Goff Titans gave up # 15, two 2nds, 3rd and the next seasons 1st and 3rd

 

in order to move up from #6 to #2. WAS gave up #6 and their next 2 years first round picks for RG3

Too much. Our 1st, Burns and more? 

I would rather take a shot on an imperfect and less rated prospect who is paired with a HC with QB grooming abilities. Neither Allen or Mahhomes went top 5. If we had the right coach I would care less that we are not picking top 2. 

I don't want to see us do a Lance type trade.

That's the problematic part.

The problematic part is status quo, continuing to dumpster dive for reclamation projects. Can’t be scared to take a shot on someone. If not, we stay where we are for the foreseeable future.

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
