What if we traded our 1st for....


Recommended Posts

And next year you'll ask "what if we trade the pick we got from last year for next year's..." Some people don't have the balls to handle having a first round pick without wanting to trade out of it, and I'm glad our GM isn't one of them.

Every one is cool with trading down and getting a lower first round and a third. Take their second and third this year if you want an additional pick along with 2014 #1 pick.

I am not normally for trading our 1st away but this draft IMO is weak.

I don't think we will because we have so few picks this year anyhow. That said, I wouldn't be pissed if we did.

Since i'm still not allowed to post and this is something that needs posting, the Vikings are looking to trade up for Tavon. They have a #23 and #25. I want this to happen more than anything. We could take Xavier Rhodes and not reach for a safety. Grab BPA DT/WR in 2nd. i hope to god this happens.

Not an option I'd consider unless we are getting a better deal than that. The least I'd want is a 2nd and a 3rd in 2013, and perhaps a mid round pick in 2014. But I'd rather us either draft a guy with our first this year, or trade down and have a late first round pick. I agree with Rodeo, you've got to have the balls to make a pick in the first, and trading out shouldn't be under consideration unless we're landing a proven pro bowl type player in exchange (though our cap would probably prevent us trading it for a player).

You wouldn't want the #23 and #25 pick? I say if they throw in their third this year then yeah def.

This would be a dream scenario if this actually happened.

We do, that's why i'm hoping this happens. We could really help shore up our secondary or just holes on defense if this happens.

I think we'd be better served by taking the BPA with our 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so forth. I fail to see the benefit of trading away the 14th pick for an additional 2nd.

    • Also hit the over.  Banking on Man City running up the score and Leeds getting a lucky strike.   
    • Tailed you.  Also Free Play, which is why the risk shows $0.00. Let me look at hoops and get back to you.  Always fade Hubert, haha. 
    • Hard to say right now, but good thinking.  I look at this as the info we need for free agency.  Looks like we are going to free up about $10m so far; watch to see if any contracts (Moehrig, Horn, Brown, etc) are reworked the first week of March.  Then after free agency, we will have a pretty good idea. Right now, to be fair to your question because I am sure you are aware of its timing: In free agency, I see us adding an OT of some sort and drafting one at some point.  It all depends on how they view Ickey, Nijman, and maybe BC.  That OT could be Nijman.  I do not see the future OT--just a stop gap. I see the Panthers signing a free-agent center.  I think the market is strong.  I see Fortner from the Saints as a prime candidate and his salary is estimated at $6m by Spotrac.  the Saints are $42m over the cap, so I doubt they are able to re-sign many of their own.  He will be 28.  I also expect them to re-sign Corbett (depth) at a vet min ($1.5m) deal. I also see free agency as a strong area to get a free safety who can play and is under age 30.  Hawkins, Cook, and Bryant are all around age 27-28, play at a high level, and should be had for about $15m per. EDGE: Arnold Ebiketie is a good value because he gets pressure at a high percentage.  He had 2 sacks and Atlanta just drafted 2 pass rushers last year.   He has a 70+ PFF rating and will (Spotrac) demand about $9m.  While he is not the answer, he is a great third down option with Princely and he would allow for Jones, Scourton, and Princely to develop.
