BPA is a lie and I wish we'd stop talking about it like there's a universal power ranking for the draft class. It's meaningless because "best" and "need" are both highly subjective team by team. Most media big boards had Fletcher Cox ahead of Luke.

The good teams have the luxury of low stakes picks and incrementally upgrading the roster because they don't really have needs. The bad teams have needs at critical positions that are hard to draft, as we well know. 

so sure we can draft BPA we have done it before on numerous occasions & as a result had some of the best drafts in franchise history .

& like this team just  thought they had absolutely no other choice but to  draft a WR with the first pick last year & then what happens we sign (UDFA ) a WR who might wind up being better than that WR we though we had to trade up into the 1st round to draft 

building quality football teams takes alot of patience & a rookie edge rusher is not going to fix this team what is going to fix this team is talent/BPA  patience & making good decisions...just saying

Then hit up the Giants who will likely draft Carter and rumor is shopping Thibodeaux and trade a 3rd.

Seems too simple..  

If he is available,  most definitely!!!  I saw that but wondering how they were gonna approach that come draft night. A bunch of players on the block. Even tight ends like Kittle, Andrew's and Mayer too. Jameson Williams etc. Definitely  different  avenues to improve the team with later round capital!

Geepers.. could you imagine..

Trade Motion

1st Round: Draft Will Campbell or Membou

Trade 3rd to the Giants for Thibodeaux 

Trade 2nd to Raiders for Mayer

I mean this is playing Madden but then suddenly you come out of the draft -30,000,000 in cap and 3 young players to build around.

Mayer is not worth a 2nd

I don't think it'd take a 2nd for mayer. Probably  more like a 4th and we got a few of those.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
