Who Has to Be Off the Board to Trade Back?

It seems the Cowboys have a boner for Jeanty.  Maybe we can get them to bite with the illusion of him being the target for us.

DIdn't they want Brooks too?

Johnson seems to be beneficiary of a seemingly weak CB class, certainly top echelon ones.  Granted I haven't dove into the draft as much this season as prior years, but I have yet to see glowing reviews for him.  Stated like this, would he be a top 10 CB in a stacked CB class?  Similar to the QBs this draft, Sanders and Ward would have been second round selections in last years QB class.

And WR class, which is why I backed off on TMac.  I read that he would have been 4th overall WR taken last year---stuck in my head.

I don't think anyone is trading up unless someone falls in love with the 3rd qb and thinks the saints are going to take them.  Assuming that would be milroe having a killer combine. To me I'd rather stay at 8 and let the saints reach for a qb instead of trading back to 18 for the seahawks or 21 to the steelers

Our spot could potentially be trade bait for taking Tyler Warren.  He’s mocked around where we pick or slightly after.  A team may want to leap frog the Saints to get him.

On the flip side, if we trade back 4,5, or 6 spots and he's still on the board, I'm down to draft him.  I'm not against a Rd1 TE, just not in the top 10.

I think Baltimore, KC, Miami, LA Rams, and a few others will want one of the top 2 OTs and they get ripe around the back of the top 10.  We shall see.

It would be ideal if Jaxson Dart could scam some team into thinking he’s worth a top 10 pick.

Yes, they did want Brooks and that's why we moved up to stick it to them.  Well, we stuck it to ourselves in typical Panthers fashion.  They are wanting their next generation Zeke. A proven bell cow on a rookie deal so they can pay their other stars.

As far as T-Mac goes, stud WRs are game changers.  That WR class last year was so loaded that he while would have gone later than Harrison Jr., Nabers and perhaps Odunze, the first two were considered can't miss prospects.  That's not a knock on T-Mac as much as how sure-fire talents the top two guys were.

Personally I'm done with the "trade a quarter for 2 dimes and a nickel" Fitterer logic so I say stay put and take a top prospect regardless. No matter how the top 7 picks play out there will be a damn good player available and we should take that player based on the fact we have needs across the board.

I feel the same.  Worst case I’m taking Warren and not feeling bad about it.

He's got to have one heck of a Combine and Pro Day.  As of now, he's seemingly overtaken Ewers for QB3, but not enough to jump all the way to the first round, let alone the top 10.  My gut tells me a team like the Raiders or Saints will jump on him at the top of the second round.  The only team at the back of the first round possibly needing a QB is Pittsburgh, that's if they don't keep Fields or Wilson.

JJ McCarthy pulled it off.  It can be done.

It would take someone shooting up the boards to change my mind but the guys I want us to take early should be gone by 8 so I'm hoping for a trade back. Getting an extra pick in the top 100 picks would also be a bigger win than an offensive pick or CB at 8 IMO.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
