Man I hope we trade down.

There just isn't a player there we should invest in. None of the QB's are worth #1, there are ? About the Dlinemen, and you never take a CB first overall esp when you still have pass rush issues.

I am really hoping JR and hurney are willing to curb their egos and take a little less than normal to get out of that spot.

Unfortunately every other team knows the same thing. :(

Well fortunately some teams for some reason must have X guy no matter what. It will help a ton if a rookie cap is in place.

I can see a Jerruh Jones making the phone call, I just hope they look at the overall, long term needs for the team and trade down. It won't be what they would get in normal years. And we can't screw them like Washington did to us with Gilbert... :mad:

But offers will be there.

Some of us are hoping that someone like Washington or Dallas falls in love with a guy and tries to trade up.

I would just say that there is also the possibility that we fall in love with one of these guys as well and won't trade the pick.

Not to be a bummer :)

I agree, I would love to trade down, especially since it would increase the chance we take the guy I want us to take - AJ Green. But if we do trade down, I hope it's not out of the top 5. I still want one of the #1 at their position guys: Dareus, Peterson, Green, Bowers/Quinn (whichever is deemed #1). I suppose I wouldn't even mind if we end up taking Gabbert. If Hurnivera deem him worthy of a shot to be our franchise QB, I'll take their word for it for now. As long as we still get one of those 4 or 5 guys I'll be ecstatic about a trade down, even if it only nets us a 2nd round pick.

let's hope that somebody, like the skins, is stupid enough to give you a 2nd-rounder for smitty...thus, you can go for green at 1st ovr and draft a nice qb-prospect in the 2nd...

i know i know, that's unrealistic but you never know.

Smitty most likely isn't going anywhere. I'd rather the Skins give us their #1 this year and next year and a 2nd this year for our #1.

now something to think on (killing my own thread....) IF we have free agency and IF we get one or two of the better DT's that would be available... then we pick Peterson.

We have DE's which I think we can agree on? LB isn't bad in fact we have Beaston (spelled that way for a reason) etc and can get another LB in Free agency if we need it. If we can shore up DT in Free agency, THEN we have the pieces to be able to take a guy like Peterson and have an instant upgrade across the board on Defense.

Man I wish we still had our 2nd rounder :-(

Yea, that's a fine plan for making our defense, which is already at worst middle of the road, into a top defense. The biggest problem is that it doesn't address our offense, which is the worst in the league. Not as many offensive players available in the 3rd and later that will make an impact as defensive players.

Man I hope........ Hurney, Rivera, etc do all the due dillegence and come to the conclusion that Cam Newton can be a franchise QB then pick him #1. Otherwise I guess trading down would be fine with me, but if that happens it means they determined Cam cant become "the guy" and we are going to be depending on just Clausen and having to look for a QB next draft :ack2: Of course, if we want to be able to draft one of the top guys will either have to have a suck a** season again or trade picks to move up :ack2:

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
