Take Stroud - Trade Back Into First Round for Jaxon Smith-Njigba?

I'm not a fan of giving up so much to ge too #1 and have no starting WRs on the roster for him to throw to.  We'll have to get at least 2 players better than TMJ or Lavish for him, so if we take Stroud, I think we should find a way to get back into the middle of the first to take his college teammate and hope it works like for the Bengals with Burrow/Chase.

Think our 2025 First plus some more could get us into the middle of the round to get him, and that would be totally worth giving up a future first in that type of situation I think.

No. Stop mortgaging more future capital. We’re already behind the 8 ball with future picks. If this doesn’t work , we’re screwed for the next three years. Just stay where you are and take Flowers or Downs or Hyatt and see if Rice or someone falls to our third. Or even Boutte late third. Down year but has WR one upside and showed the pedigree before this year.

2025 is two years out, I doubt a team would be willing to take that as compensation.

We'd have to give up our 2nd this year and next, plus some other picks to do it. Doesn't make sense to me. A trade up into the end of the first, maybe, but again, we've already payed a steep price paying for next year's draft.

There's some decent free agent options you don't have to draft a rockstar R1 WR. You can use the 2nd or 3rd to get a decent one to pair with TMJ. And maybe over pay one of the top FA WRs to be the #1 option.

Yeah underrated list. I'm more into getting the best TE we can and spreading the ball out. Get Bozeman signed, get Foreman or Jamaal Williams at RB and we're good

They're going to get someone in free agency they're not going to sit on their hands with two unknowns at WR imo. 

Even if it's just a sort of solid WR2 ish dude on a reasonable contract. They could really use any consistent chain mover bc I have no idea how reliable TMJ, draft pick, or Shi Smith will be (last season seems to point to him likely being unreliable barring some unexpected rebirth)

I really think we trade down to 2 on draft night and pick up a pick. Really hoping we love both guys and Texans are set on one guy

I think trading down to 3 is more likely. If the Cards think we'll get a massive haul that would be difficult to refuse from someone to move up for Anderson or potentially Carter, then they might want to move up to make sure they get their guy. Overall, I'd say a trade down to anybody would be unlikely.

I don't see how they could risk trading down to 3 at this point. They have to put it out there that they are "in control of the draft" or whatever, but going back to 3 you aren't in control of anything anymore and just shuffled around a bunch of draft picks with no "conviction", their favorite word

Person saif the Panthers were ultimately only comfortable with first or second overall.

    • We will make it interesting. I think we'll be on a roll by then.
    • Especially glad there's no Thursday games. I hate them. They're dangerous. They really fug up a routine and unless you're team is coming off a bye, they play the game with little rest or prep.
    • Sober. Still feeling it. I really like how the schedule is laid out for us. Perfect for a new HC and rebuilding team. Aside from the Bengals, there aren't  any good teams before the bye. Chargers will be, but they're having to figure poo out just like we are and they'll be coming here for an early game. That one is a toss up. I like our defense against them. I think we'll give the Bengals a fight, but I wouldn't put money on us winning that one. But the saints can be swept. They're beat up and just don't have much going on. They'll be at the bottom of the division. I feel like we will split with the falcons and the bucs. There's nothing scary about the raiders or that washington team. Chicago is another toss up, but they aren't scary either....not yet anyways. We're getting them early in the season so I like our chances. I especially like our defense against a rookie QB. And the broncos....boring. Giants....again, boring. Looking at this, we've got a good defensive thing going on. I think the unit will be better this year a d we're in season 2 of Evero. I like us especially against rookie QBs, and we'll have at least 3 we're facing before the bye. We come in and play smash mouth football and just keep hitting (pounding) away and I think we're competitive. It's that schedule after the bye that scares me. Hopefully by that point they've built up a lot of confidence. You get a scrappy dawg that's got some confidence and a lot of fight in him and you've always got a shot. I think that's what we'll be this year. This year isn't about winning all the games. It's about building confidence and learning what we've got to do. But looking at that later schedule and it's not horrible. We've got the eagles and chiefs....that's scary, but then we've got the cardinals and cowboys at home...and it's the cowboys in December. When have they been scary in December? And we've got division games in there as well. I think we'll do ok. The more I look at it, the better I feel about it.
