We must figure out a way to trade down

I know JR said it would not happen but that was before Luck decided to stay in college.

With all our needs and the price tag of the 1st round pick it makes alot of sense.The question is how can we pull it off?

I feel the more picks in rounds 1 through 3 the better off we will be as a team.When you think about it the number 1 pick is reserved for a franchise qb which I do not see in this draft.

So if I understand this correctly if we have a CBA in place we could package a trade using a FA but without one its a matter of giving up picks.What does everyone think we could get to trade down?Would it be possible to get a low number 1 and low number 2?

First of all, I don't think it's possible. But let's assume that someone actually wants to trade up...we'd get a lot more than a low first and a low second.

No point trading down. No team is gonna give up much to move up most likely w/ no superstud at #1. No point giving away the pick for what ultimately will be little.

what I fear is Hurney trading our future #1 again

Well that my point if we give up enough could we entice someone trade up or is it a mute point and accept our 50 million dollar man.

anything could happen between now and then.......ANYTHING. End of story. There have already been 500 threads about this already. Just read back thru some of them and you'll get all the information you need......... along with everyone's opinion.

Honestly I don't always have a problem trading a number 1, if you get a number 1 back. I would be totally fine with say the following example.

We take Fairley with the Number 1 pick, then say if Newton were to slide to about 15 or so, I would try and trade back into the first round by trading next years number 1.

    • Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack
    • Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.
    • Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
