Best Trade Down Partners At This Point

Jets and Cowboys

Buffalo needs an OT pretty bad. Demetrius Bell just signed with Philly. They are sitting there praying that Rieff falls to them.

NY Jets could do nothing better than to move in front of a division rival and fill their own need for an OT.

Dallas, on the other hand needs Poe. Ratliff is not getting the job done as a NT and JJ wants the big guy. Jones is generally a guy that moves down a la Belecik, but the JJ magic has not been working so it is time for him to make a move.W

KC needs a NT also, but Buffalo will not trade with Dallas for fear of losing out on Rieff, so JJ comes up to the Panthers.

These are the two best at them moment as far as needs and what FA has filled.

Thought about Philly, but they have already traded away one pick getting D Ryan from Houston. Reid usually likes collecting picks, so I doubt he trades away more especially in the first round.

They need an OLB pretty bad to go along with Ryan and I could see them picking up someone like Kendall Wright since DeSean Jackson is on a one year leash at the moment.

CB is a problem for them now also, they want to trade Asante (old and expensive) and keep Cromartie who is not that great and might get cut after this season. They do have issues, more than just trading up for one DT.

they re-signed Jackson to a five year deal worth about 33 mil

Saying the same thing, that Buffalo is set to take OT and many people from 10-20 need one.

Hoping we get great offer from Philly or Jets for OT. Philly signed Bell but it really is just a one year contract.

From the GBN buzz report

On the other hand, if there is a run of trades in this year’s opening round, it is very possible that it could start pretty much right after the Dolphins pick at #8. Buffalo, in particular, which has the 10th pick, looks like a team that would happily move down. The Bills are reportedly looking for a LT, but likely won’t find any worth the 10th pick, but guys like Riley Reiff of Iowa and/or Jonathan Martin of Stanford would represent better value 5-10 spots lower in the draft. In fact, a pretty good case that just about every team picking 10th through 20th could move either up or down depending on the players available on the board at those respective selections.

    • I don't disagree, but you're not giving our offense enough credit, and I'm not saying we would win the SB, just that we would be contenders, which we would have been. The Bengals had a horrible start to the season last year and it caused them to just miss the playoffs by one game, but had they made it, they absolutely would have been contenders in the AFC.  They had a bad defense, probably worse than ours will be this year, and you can't convince me that we don't have a better offensive roster than they had last year.   We have a Top 10 OL, two 1k rushers from last year, two 1st round WRs, one of the best slot WRs in the league, and then Coker.  Like I said, their Top 2 WRs are better than ours will be this year, but we take them in every other spot, OL, RBx2, and our 3rd/4th WRs.   If Burrow was able to turn that team into a contender last year, no reason he couldn't do the same with our roster this year.  And hell, I think our offensive roster is better than KC's last year too, and while I know their defense did a lot of the heavy lifting last year, if you give Mahomes an improved offensive roster around him, he's going to be THAT much better himself. A Mahomes, Burrow, or Allen would be able to win the South by outscoring teams.  And yes, come playoff time against an Eagles or Lions juggernaut, our defense probably costs us the game, but that doesn't mean we wouldn't at least be contenders. If Bryce can prove me wrong and his supporters here right, and be THAT guy for us this year, I genuinely think we can be a real playoff threat in 2026 once we add a few more pieces to the defense and then be a genuine SB contender in 2027 if the team keeps improving. We're the 2022 Detroit Lions right now.   Great offensive pieces, tons of holes on defense, but if things go right we'll just miss the playoffs (like they did) and then be right in the playoff hunt the next year (like they did) and then be contenders the following season (like they did when they were the #1 seed).
    • Hornets have had the worst luck of any professional sports franchise this century. Constantly drafting a slot below the generational talent, all because of the lottery done behind closed doors. It's been brutal and frankly unfair to be a diehard fan of this franchise, and I don't blame anyone for cutting out the stress.
    • We will see if there is any logic to those sort of packages. I haven't seen a ton of evidence that Evero operates that way.
