What could a trade down look like?

Pick 12 seems to be a non-negotiable for the folks who would accept this trade.

It's kind of begs the question, if we did get that pick, who would you take with it? 

Funny, I was looking at mocks as you were replying. I have not looked at 1st round talent at all because I know that we're going qb at #1.  Lukas Van Ness, Jaxon Smith-Njigba (especially since we ASSUME that Stroud will be the #2 pick), Devon Witherspoon and Joey Porter are the 4 names that stand out to me. I'd give Van-Ness the edge (pun intended).

You mention this trade down in every thread, it's okay to admit it's your dream scenario. Nothing wrong with that, I personally just think it's kind of silly.

My dream? No. I already gave you mine.

But if the team actually managed to get their franchise quarterback and get extra picks In the process, especially something like a future first rounder, you'd have to explain to me what about that scenario would be bad.

(keeping in mind that the "what if it's a bad pick" question isn't really valid because that can happen either way)

Listening to Fitty this morning on the radio he is good at not tipping his hand.  He also said Bryce is very mature and bright.  Said they all are.  Gave some interesting comments on ARs upside which impressed him a lot.

Levis didn’t come up

It's been said before, but our current front office and coaching staff seem to be very good at keeping things out of the news.

Pretty much everything we're hearing is speculation.

If it's true that the team is running an offense more similar to Nick Sirianni's than Doug Pederson's then the trade-down could be for Anthony Richardson.

I would consider if Texans offered  #2, #12, and a 3rd rounder. Run heavy offense with deep threats. Look to target Darnell Washington TE Georgia  and Jaylin Hyatt WR Tennessee

I think you throw the point chart out the window when you are talking QBs. If we were to do it (which I doubt) pick 33 and 2 would be the lowest and I’m not sure that gets it done. Next years first or pick 12 would make more sense but Houston isn’t doing that.

There could be other "influences" that pump the price of #1 up....like Houston thinking Indy is going to make us an offer we can't refuse and take the guy they want.

The trade value chart is like any other set of numbers:  it is a pretty accurate guide over the long haul, but the caveat "all other things being equal" needs to be added to the end.  For the #1 pick or even a top 3-5, all other things are rarely equal.

I would start my negotiation with "so we've been talking to the Colts".

Hell, I'd call the Colts just to scare the sh-t out of the Texans 😆

Did I read somewhere Joe P hinted that AR was 2 on our board or am I insane?

That would take CJ Stroud and Bryce Young out of reach and no possible franchise QB for us if that had taken place.

    • Posting Just for laughs….or, maybe not    “The Carolina Panthers weren’t on the list of Deion Sanders’ preferred landing spots for his son Shedeur. But that didn’t stop CBS Sports writer Ryan Wilson from already projecting the University of Colorado star to the Queen City—and with next year’s No. 1 overall pick, no less. Wilson, in his “way-too-early” 2025 mock draft, explains that a new quarterback may be on the horizon if the Panthers finish with the league’s worst record for the second year in a row: If nothing else, using the betting odds means that, for the third straight year, the Panthers have the No. 1 overall pick. Hopefully first-year coach Dave Canales can get the most out of Bryce Young, but if that doesn’t happen … you’d have to imagine quarterback at No. 1 (for the second time in three drafts for Carolina) will be a talking point. And with that pick, Wilson sends Sanders to Carolina: Shedeur Sanders made huge strides in his first year as an FBS QB and he’ll be in the conversation with several other players to be the first quarterback drafted. Sanders completed 69.3 percent of his passes for 3,230 yards, 27 touchdowns and just three interceptions in 2023”
    • If Young can't at least play average, then little QBs of the present and future might as well kiss dreams of being in the NFL "goodbye." Sure, there may be what people consider outliers,  like Russ and Murray, but Wilson and Murray aren't exactly little guys. Young is the test case.
    • I really liked zona's draft too. It's a fair snap shot at a entertainment grade..   edit- raiders imo had a much better draft than the expert grade. I see lots of BPA and need filled.
