With our second pick in the draft…

So we’ve discussed which QB we should take in the first. I was thinking about what we should do in the second assuming we get an offensive minded HC, don’t trade up in the first and have to settle for Richardson or Levis.
 

We have #s 39 and 60 in the second. A guy that’s been mentioned around here some that I’m enamored with is Michael Mayer. The chances are pretty low he’ll be available at 39 so I was thinking about the idea of trading up to the mid 20s with our two second round picks. What do you guys think?  Would our two seconds be enough to go high enough to get him?  Some mocks I’ve seen him as high as 15 but most are in the 25-28 range.  Would you love that move or just really like it?  I’d love it.

What if some team falls in love and takes him in the top ten or so, what about trading our second and a third or something to move up to 30 or 31 for the second TE?  I’ve been thinking we’re primed to move up from 39 into the bottom of the first to take someone that could make an immediate impact, like a blue chip TE. Is there anyone you guys would wanna make that move for if Mayer is gone?

I'm sure the sims will change but you can get a DE, a TE like Latu or Kincaid in the 2nd, and maybe LB Jack Campbell with out 3rd. Pretty even draft talent wise between picks 10-3rd round. Some have Jalin Hyatt still available at 39 as well, that's the kinda burner we need at WR to clear space in the middle for whatever TE's we have in the middle

I like Kincaid in the second with no trade up, gotta feeling Mayer ain’t making it to the lower half of 20.

Yeah I want a DE and a TE/WR/LB whatever is there with our 2 2nd rounders. No one is that great to trade up for in this draft. Or you get your DE/TE/WR in the first and grab Hooker with one of the 2nds and see if he can do the Tennessee thing in the NFL, worth a gamble in the 2nd.

No to trading the two seconds for Mayer.  He won’t fall that far and we need both second round picks.

Quintin in the first, Kincaid at 39 and either Tanner McKee or Hooker at 60.  This assumes we snag either Kafka or Steichen as HC, to develop Corral, McKee or Hooker.

Sign Carr (preferred) or Minshew (consolation prize) or Darnold to be the bridge QB.  Will be interesting to see who Kafka or Steichen would want as the bridge QB.  For all our Huddle navel gazing, the opinion of Kafka or Steichen is all that really matters.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
