Scenario for our second pick

[Untouchable]

We're trading back at 39....might as well lock that in.

My opinion? Forget going after WR in this draft--JSN might be a second rounder in other years.  I think we are not going to do much more at WR.

The draft is deep at Edge, CB, and TE.  We have needs at those positions.  I think we might grab an Edge and CB---maybe or maybe not a TE--and we will grab an OL.

Honestly, my preferred scenario would be the same idea but for Kincaid or Mayer. But JSN seems highly thought of around here so I figured that would be a better question to ask.

I might have agreed if Miles Sanders didn’t get the deal he did.. RB is a later round need.. If we get a familiar target for Young it probably be Latu..

Miles got a fairly inexpensive deal with us. And it could be a bargain if we got Double Trouble type production back there again...

Just let Jordan Addison fall to our hot little hands at 39

Would you guys be ok with this scenario?

Variables:

JSN falls to the mid 20s, just say 25 for example. Entirely possible, he’s not elite and a team could definitely still have QR at #1 based on athleticism and YAC abilities. 
 

Carolina takes Young #1, for the purpose of this hypothetical just to avoid the existing relationship bias.

Trade:

Carolina trades #39, #93 and next year’s third to move to 25 to take JSN.  Value works out, I know most want to trade down rather than up given our remaining draft positions, but there’s something to be said for quality over quantity and we don’t have many holes.  Better to get higher quality pieces and build toward longer term success than trying to get to mid tier asap.

Fuggin love JSN but he isn’t going to be available even in a move up

[LinvilleGorge]

IMO we've already made our big move up this year. I don't think we should he spending additional draft capital to end up with fewer picks at this point. I still don't rule out Chinn being dealt.

[Wundrbread33]

I’d trade up for the right edge but that may be it. I think we will have plenty of options that entice at 39. 

[Bostonheelfish]

No way a team trades out of the first round. Getting a very good starter with a 5th year option is essential.

[Shocker]

Still don’t hate the idea of IOL if a stud is available.  The OL is good but we could use another one.

[pdub0702]

I would prefer we stand fast at 39 and grab the best available Tight End

[top dawg]

Nah. It's not like he's a surefire WR1. I mean, he ain't Chase, Jefferson or even Moore. He'd have to prove he's better than a healthy Chark or a flashing TMJ or old man Thielen. I'm not even sure that he'll end up the best in this draft. I say we stay put and let talent fall to us.

Agree to disagree.. Miles got a solid contract for RBs today not name CMC.. And we can get a double trouble situation with a later round RB.. We don’t need to put that many assets in that position.. Especially with 2 solid options already on the roster..

I feel he is a solid WR that is slightly over hyped by this draft not having a home run type prospect. He is very safe but not worth trading up for. I like the middle of the pack WRs there’s a lot of untapped talent there. We are pretty heavy at the position now as the group consists of 

 

Chark 

Theilen

TMJ 

Shenault 

Smith 

Byrd 

3 of the top 4 have missed multiple games to injuries the last two seasons and Theilen is 33. If you get the chance you draft another WR point blank period.
