Trade up to #4?

Here's a scenario that could be of great interest. If Miami misses out on Peyton, they will go hard after Flynn and likely get him. this will leave Cleveland in dire straights as far as having a competent starting QB. They will be looking hard at Tannehill but they know #4 is too early for him. But our pick #9 is actually the perfect spot to grab Tannehill and gain a few picks just a few spots in front of Seattle and KC.

I personally would be willing to trade our 1st next year for the 6 slot swap in order to get Claiborne or Blackmon this year. It might only require our 2nd rounder this year ( based on the fact that a 1st rounder for next year is considered the same value as a current second rounder ).

Just wanted some opinions on this trade that IMHO has some serious potential especially with Hurney..

Why are we willing to trade back to receive second and third rounders we are notoriously known for missing big on? Why don't we trade up in the first and get the stud we want in Claiborne? We will have a potentially lockdown corner locked up for cheap for years to come. Look at the receivers in our division, they are better than the RB's at this point. We need a CB more than a DT.

We have more needs than just another CB though. What about Jenkins at #22 or Gillmore?

Claiborne is not a guarantee either. Patrick Peterson was pretty abysmal when it came to coverage last year....just saying

    • Evero has his faults, but even in that loss, the team only gave up 20 points. Your post gets to the heart of the matter. We are not a talented team on defense at this time. Some of our younger guys may develop w/more playing time, but for now we have no impact players at LB or EDGE. We could really use a ball-hawking S on the back end as well. We have exactly two players that have to be accounted for on every play, D. Brown, and J.Horn. Mike Jackson has been solid. The other starters would probably be backups on most the upper echelon NFL teams. We really can't expect this team to a Top 10 defense with such a lack of talent. All things considered I've been somewhat impressed with how much better they have played this year.   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-points-per-game   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-average-team-passer-rating We are in the top 15 in terms of points allowed per game (22.6) and top 12 in defensive passer rating (88.9). And, we are doing this without a formidable PASS RUSH. Even our rushing defense has improved. We are #16 in rushing yards allowed per game (116) compared to 179 per game last season. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-rushing-yards-per-game I wouldn't cry if Evero moved on after the season, but his defense isn't the biggest worry for our team.
    • The funny part is she looks older and not in a good way...
    • How about some line help, both sides, first. Trade XL before talking about a 1st round WR 3 years in a row. Or a TE or...drum roll...a QB to pair with a vet.  And if it's not a speedy route guy with hands then just hard pass.
