uh if we knew for a fact they weren’t taking our guy why would they trade up lol

This is one of those pipe dreams people have to make up for all the picks we gave up along with not trading Burns. The realization that we are in a real tough spot for offensive weapons and so we dream about Houston handing us another 1st to move up one spot.

Why give them the first choice among the qb's? You've already traded up so use that to pick whoever you want. Don't overthink this.

This. They better have a conviction on one guy as the top choice otherwise we’re  in trouble. It doesn’t mean the second choice is not good but you have the #1 pick, no need to settle

You are sacrificing your chance to choose the first qb and quite possibly the one you wanted. That's a big something that is being ignored. To hell with extra picks. Don't overthink this.

They traded up too soon, we have too much time on our hands now. All we can do is overthink!

It's weird.  I feel like you only trade to #1 if there is one specific guy you actually covet.  So I think our FO and staff know exactly who they want and who they traded up there for.  So, that's where I disagree with Person here...  I don't think they traded there with the idea they like "more than one."  They traded for THE ONE they like.  Now, that being said, I only see us trading back if we have solid Intel that the Texans aren't interested in the guy we want.  If that is the case, I'm taking that 12th pick and running Zay Flowers or Hyatt's card up to the podium.  No hesitation.

I think there were 2 guys there covet (Stroud and Young), but the #2 pick wasn't for sale. Trading to #3 doesn't guarantee you those guys since LV or IND can jump to #1.

Basically this could be the long way to get to pick #2.

What could you settle for?

I'd ask for next years 1st. I'd settle for this years 2nd and try to trade it to someone else for their 1st next year (ala Everette Brown).

That is actually in line with what a team should expect (maybe a little low) based on the typical cost to move up in the 1st round.

Why would Houston trade up if they know we have to take one of the QBs anyway. Their power move would be to stay put and force us to take Stroud with no additional compensation. They could just call our bluff. 
 

Who else is trying to move up to #1?

Texans are the only team it'll make sense for us to trade to imo. It feels like the tepper likes Young Reich likes Stroud report was aimed at them as well. I dont think it happens though, feels like us just being optimistic we can force them to pick between the two.

I would only do it for their 1st next year, which they would be insane to agree to.  At the 1 spot, we get to choose our destiny and that is priceless.

I sure would love to get next years first rounder back, but that would be a huge ask. They currently have:

  • Round 1, Pick 2 overall
  • Round 1, Pick 12 overall (from CLE)
  • Round 2, Pick 33 overall
  • Round 3, Pick 65 overall
  • Round 3, Pick 73 overall (from CLE)
  • Round 4, Pick 104 overall

Plus 4 6ths and 2 7ths.

Honestly, I'd take # 33 or both 3rd rounders this year. we need to let our new staff lock down as much talent as they can right off the bat, Obviously, if the coaches feel that 1 QB is significantly better than the other, fuggit! pick their guy and don't look back!

      I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

      This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
