Kiper's latest mock has us trading 33


Recommended Posts

We trade down with Giants (who want Bo) to pick 47 and get their 2025 second. 

At 39 we pick Ladd

At 47 we pick JPJ

 

For those interested

Legette goes to the Chiefs.

AD to the Lions

Worthy to Chargers (via Minny)

Chop to Tampa

Kool-Aid to Ravens

Darius Robinson to the Cards (via Hou)

Probably take that. If Bryce sucks again, we should be picking near the top in 2025. Two 2s could come in handy to move up for another QB, possibly. 

Pretty sure we traded next years 2nd in the Bryce deal lol. Gonna sting for a while longer

Here is why I have been predicting a trade of pick #33:

Everyone leaves day 1 and meets before day 2 begins.  Someone will want that pick.

If we can add a second rounder, it gives us the ability to trade up in the 2015 first round if needed.  The Panthers are turning the corner in 2024, but they plan to hit the gas in 2025.  The future is part of the equation.

There is a pretty flat plateau of talent if you take away need.  I think we will grab a WR and a LB in round 2, so the difference between 33 and 47 does not impact the LB market much.  If Ladd were to fall from 33 to 39, it would be a win win.  Just my opinion, but we need that second rounder to have some options next year should we need to move up for a QB, for example.

    • This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.  
    • I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it. 
    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
