Why Hurney will trade down.

1. It's in his DNA. He trained with Bobby 'I never draft in the first round' Bethard.

2. There is not one player in this draft worth guaranteeing 50 million + to. There is no rookie salary cap and there wasn't going to be one this year anyway. Remember everyone throwing a fit at Luck going back to school and saying 'this is his last shot at a big payday'? Can you imagine the fallout if we take Darius and we pay him that. We have just become the Raiders and fuged up the salary structure for every team in the NFL for DT's

3. I do not feel he, JR, nor Rivera have a clear cut #1 can't miss guy on their board and honestly there isn't one. This is not a great draft class, let someone else screw the pooch cap wise and pay 50+ mill to someone that has a greater chance than normal to bust.

Several teams will make an offer and they should take the best one. Get back at least the 2nd rounder we lost and hopefully a 1st or 2nd thrown in next year.

Now This is just my opinion looking at his history, JR's history and the draft class in general along with our needs. Also we have a real shot with this rookie HC, a QB has to sit period none are ready, you can't saddle a rookie HC with that and there is NO DT period worth the #1 pick even Suh.

The phone ain't ringing. And it likely won't this year. Not the type of draft where people are clamoring to move that far up.

I believe New england would trade up there to get Von Miller. But that would put us at the bottom we cant trade that far down. I would say maybe 10 is the farthest i trade down. No further

just because something is in someones DNA doesn't mean he can create trades out of nothing.

look, I'd love to trade down, but it just isn't going to happen. the only teams wanting to trade up are way, way down, and they won't give us what it will take to move up to #1 when they can just give much less to #2 or #5, both who have been rumored to be trying to leave their spots.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Yards a game works better over a longer period of time as well. Averages always work out over the long run. The smaller the sample size the easier it is to skew. Also opponents matter more when the size is small. Player 1 lights up 2 bad defenses in 4 starts vs Player 2 playing 10 games vs multiple defenses. It hard to make it apples to apples how it currently sits. Remember during Bryce’s little run last year how annoyed you were when people were pulling Bryce’s starts from week 9 on vs the whole season.

      Someone else claimed I said EVERY.  Literally in my post breaking it down it gave Bryce TDs per game.   Shough however has the majority in his favor if just looking at starts. whats subjective about comp %, yards, QB ratings and turnovers?  Now I guess the argument one might make off them could be subjective.  But all I’m saying is statistically as a starter he has been better this year overall.  I don’t think Shough is great.  I think he is impressive based on the situation.  2nd rounder stepping in on a bad team.   And he like so many other QBs…..serves as little red flag going off about what we are doing here offensively.

      Player A - 2 starts.  200 yards in each start. He averages 200 yards a game.  Player B - 1 start.  Throws for 400 yards.  Comes in another random game and has 1 pass attempt on a Hail Mary to end the game that goes incomplete.   Now given the random game he appeared for a snap, he averages 200 yards a game. Thats why you isolate starts. If you are talking starter vs someone who began as a backup.  Simple made up numbers/situations to illustrate the point.
