We need to take a chance....

This draft, there's no clear-cut #1 choice. That much is evident. so if we can't trade down, we need to take a risk. We need to do something to help this team, something to ensure our success for years to come. So....who to pick? Easy....

That kicker from Nebraska :D of course this thread is a joke, i'm just bored...

no u dont take a chance at #1, You take the best player in the draft, thats what the #1 spot is for. Patrick Peterson is the best player in the draft. You take him #1 or trade down and then take him. But you dont leave draft day without the best player in the draft.

Sam Bradford wasn't the best player in the draft...rarely the number 1 pick is. The number one pick is for changing a franchises future. Good (Bradford), Bad (russel) or you could go the BPA route like Houston did and select a guy like Mario Williams and not change your franchise at all.

But as many said, this is probably one of the worst years to have the #1 overall pick. I favor trading back and at least picking up a first next year (although that in itself may be a bad idea depending on the next CBA). I'm just not sold on anyone at #1

    • I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner. 
    • How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.
    • I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
