Odds we use next year's #1 draft pick...

I think we'll use next year's first to move into the beginning of the 2nd this year, similar to what we did with Brown last year...

As it stands, we only have 5 picks... a 2, 3, 4, 6, and a 7...

I could see us using next year's first, and our 6th and 7th to get an early 2nd and a 5th this year...

This would leave us with a 2, 2, 3, 4, 5 setup, and I feel this would meet our needs better. We'd go for solid WR and DE picks in the 2nd, and BPA the rest of the way out...

A few months back.. I would say Hell no like most ppl. but now.. we could use more picks. and also in 2011, everyone may possibly be on the coach the whole season next year, so some fans and staff won't care too much about next year's draft IMO.

If I was Hurney I would so trade next year's 1st. Wow.. 3 years strait without a 1st round pick, lol. But if it happens, it will be with a team that has two 2nd round picks.

If I was a GM of any NFL team, giving up an impact player for this season for the chance of two impact players for the following season seems to make little sense with a possible lockout on the horizon. Remember, lockout is just not for the games but for training camp also. You want to spend all that money (including signing bonuses) on two first round picks just to watch them sit on their arse and not even practice and learn the NFL system?

Oh, and saying there will be no lockout because they will resolve it is shortsighted. Two years ago 99% of everybody was saying the exact same thing about an uncapped season.

Teams who have more than one second rounder:

Tampa Bay (3, 10)

Kansas City (4, 18)

New England (12, 14, 21)

I doubt we'd trade with a division foe, so that cuts out Tampa Bay... But I'd think both KC and NE would be interested in moving...

That said, I also think other teams without multiple picks would be willing to give theirs up in an uncapped year... Some cheap owners may be looking to stay away from paying second round contracts and might actually want to move down for that reason alone... Sure, it'd still take a good deal to get them to budge, but I suspect there will be a good amount of movement in this draft just because of a capless year...

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
