So the elite prospects aren't there... and your response is to trade three years worth of first round picks for a non-elite prospect?

Sounds sensible.

Burrows, Allen, nor Mahomes we’re seen as elite Prospects. That’s 3 of the top 5 in the league looked at like the QB’s in this draft..

Some of y’all are so scared to make a move it’s embarrassing. 
 

We should be the favorites in our division so we’d likely be trading a pick in the twenties next year to go get the guy that this fully capable staff can develop. 
 

I see some of the same posters praise the coaching staff and Fitterer and Morgan in one thread and then completely panic in the next thread about going into next years draft without a first round pick. You’re either completely risk adverse or all the pomp and circumstance your shouting about the front office and new staff is a front. 
 

trading away next years first in exchange for a rookie qb on a rookie deal that allows cap space to be used in free agency to build a competing roster while they rookie deal is ongoing is the blueprint. 
 

if this collection of coaches and front office personnel think there’s a talent worth trading multiple picks for, I’m on board.

I don't think the majority of us are scared to move. The point many of us are making is, if we do make a move, make it because we've evaluated the player thoroughly and decided he's the best fit for our offense. No jumping for the mega hype underwear olympics high flyer just because they're the sexy pick. 

FYI, the last 4 times next years first was traded away was Mahomes (17), Watson(17), Goff(16) and Wentz(16). Of the 4, I would say that Mahomes is the only completely successful more. Wentz was leading Philly to the SB when he got injured so that's kind of a partially successful given the rest of his work. Watson got himself traded away for being handsy, and Goff is well, Goff. The only other time before that I could find was RG3. I wouldn't say trading away an extra 1st is necessarily the blueprint, though it has been done with some success and some failure.

No its about giving up the draft capital on an unknown.

 

Id give up 3 1s for a vet that has shown he can navigate an NFL offense.  But a rook...

Too much of a gamble in my book

Everything’s a unknown.. Do you think when the Broncos gave up draft capital for RUss there wasn’t a chance of failure.. And then reality is there isn’t many opportunities to trade 3 picks for a known championship commodity.. All of this comes with risk.. But depending on team situation you have to decide which risk is worth taking…

and P. Manning. 

I don’t even agree Manning was on that list because there was a question if Leaf was going to be better.. 
 

There was no question when Elway, Luck and Lawrence came out.. You couldn’t offer those teams the moon to move off those guys..

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I'm not to sure it's a solid argument to try to estimate what he will do this season, BUT he's had a solid 3 years in the league. Here's his numbers compared to Jewell's for the same time period. I can see the logic of getting a starting MLB for a (at best) WR4. AT, XL and Tmac are certainly our top 3 guys IN 2025. Certainly worth pondering.

      Training camp just started and it's already starting... https://www.facebook.com/reel/24277303321904901/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v LOL No one believes you and you have fan pages sharing this with a "Play him or trade him" headline. Oh wee mayne. This is why no front offices wanted any part of this.

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      Honestly, it only makes sense if you're trying to chase being the best bad team you can be this year. The number one question we need answered this season is whether or not Bryce is our long-term franchise QB. Trading away a second year WR who was second on the team in catch percentage, first in yards per target, and who clearly outplayed your 1st round pick for a likely one year rental fill in LB is exactly the type of short sighted desperation moves that has made us the worst franchise in the league under Tepper. We gotta stop making these types of moves and just focus on building a good organization and a good roster. Lloyd is a JAG LB another bad team and awful defense is wavering on and a couple of Panthers fans are salivating over him. Oof. We just need to be patient and wait. Definitely make some calls around the league to teams deep at LB and see if there's an opportunity to add one for a late round pick. Definitely shop the waiver wire hard. The reality is that LB is almost certainly going to be a weakness for us this year. We weren't fixing our entire roster in one off-season and we're not fixing an overall weak positional group in late July.  If you trade for Lloyd LB is still a weakness and you've given up a young promising WR who could potentially help you answer the question of whether or not Bryce is that guy. That's bad football business.
