To be honest, I just haven't paid a damn bit of attention to mock drafts, the Senior Bowl, probably not the Combine either. It's just hard to get into it when we've sucked for so long and don't have a 1st round pick.

Look at it like this, we acquired the Chiefs pick and then traded back one spot.  It's not so bad then. 🙃

Its just like getting punched in the dick and then asking for a harder one. The reward for sucking ass is a top pick. We EARNED the #1 pick one year after trading up to #1 and then shitting the bed with it. I usually love draft season. It's the playoffs for fans of bad teams. But not this year. It's just extra salt in the wound.

I'm with you.  I  have just started getting the itch, but a mild one.  The draft itch normally starts in late November for me, after conference Championships wrap up.  This year it was late January and I'm still not super into it.

Yes it is absolutely brutal we traded away the first overall pick. I legitimately think about it at least once a day, but I still think we can get a good player at 33 and 65 and that also doesn't include a trade down scenario and maybe get three good players

Yeah, I just don't really feel like dealing with all the talk about what Chicago is going to do with our pick. Draft Caleb Williams? Draft Drake Maye? Stick with Fields and take another king's ransom for #1 and move down a few spots to draft another stud WR to pair with DJ Moore? Ugh. No thanks. Not a lot of enthusiasm to talk about what we might do with the leftovers at #33 after all that dick punching.

    • Yeah, Bryce has to put that a little deeper. But XL can't allow the pick there. Gotta become the DB when you're undercut like that.
    • You see, I just don't subscribe to a cookie cutter type of philosophy when it comes to trades or team building. Every situation is different. Many may disagree, but I think that FOs that can't draft impact-players beyond the first round aren't really viable.  Just for argument's sake, because we all know this hypothetical trade is as realistic as the moon being made of cheese, Micah is a young dawg really just beginning his prime and is arguably the most valuable pass rusher in the league. He could realistically play at a high level for at least the next five to seven years. Parsons' current trajectory is Canton. That being said, he's not some old merc that fits the mold of "one piece away," he's a core piece to any defense for the better part of the next 10 years. Pass rushers of his caliber and age don't generally become available, so, sure, he'd help an elite team, but he's also a fit for a younger team that's building. I know that you don't agree, but it's all good. I respect your rationale.
    • Here's my not important take on this subject.  Who wouldn't want a pass rusher of his consistency?  I would absolutely love to have him on this defense.   Would I give up Brown in a trade for him.  Nope, I would never do that.  Interior linemen are way to important to be settling for whatever you can get at the position.   Would I trade 2 firsts,  plus fork out a big contract for him?   Without knowing if Young is for sure going to be our long term, franchise guy,  there is no way I'd be okay with letting go 2 firsts. As for the contract that he'd demand, I just dont get caught up with NFL contracts.  They have been out of control for decades.  So I really dont get upset over big contracts. It's just a fact of life in the NFL.  You HAVE to pay for talent.
