Draft Day Trades

Sometimes teams move up because they have their eye on a guy who they think will put them over the top.  Atlant moving up for the WR a few yrs back is an example.

 

There are also other trades, like trades back because the value at your draft position is nothing you have a need for.

 

 

 

 

This year, who do you see moving up or down in the first round?

 

I will start off with two teams on opposite ends of the spectrum.

 

SF has 12 picks, actually 11 now since they gave up a 6th for Gabbert.  With the talent they have on that team, I can see them moving up in several rounds rather than just bringing in 11 new guys, 10 of which might not even make the team.

 

Baltimore has only 4 picks, dropping back would serve them well.

 

Maybe the two of them could get together?

With the Falcons going 3/4, I think they will draft Khalil Mack or Anthony Barr.  They also need to focus on their o-line.  I mean didn't we sack Ryan like eight times? 

 

Yeah, I actually think the Clowney talk was go give them some cover in FA where they went after all 34 D guys.

 

I agree that Mack would be exceptional for them and an OT is a great fallback position for them

Yeah, I think the Falcons will just stay put and pick an OT. Things just aren't the same for them this year -- they're not seen as the team who only needs that one missing piece to go the distance.

 

I'm surprised no one has mentioned what I think is the most obvious trade scenario -- Cleveland moving up to no.2. Chances are, the Browns won't be in love with all 3 of the 'top tier' quarterbacks. You have the resources, now go and get your franchise guy. The Rams can move down and still get one hell of a pickup. It just makes too much sense.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers’ Biggest Roster Needs

      BPA in draft all the way. Address your biggest needs in free agency.

      Exactly.  You let him play out next season and continue to develop Thorton.  Jackson’s earned his next contract, but his age and the risk of tying up such a large portion of the payroll at one position leads me to believe that we’ll let him walk. In all likelihood, we’ll draft another CB, or two, and bring in some journeymen to fill the roster void, between now and the start of the 2027 season.  That’ll create more balance financially across the roster enabling us to invest in other areas.

      I’m just not impressed with these hires/openings

      By strato · Posted

      As far as the NFCS … I think this division will be hotly contested the next couple of years.   I am tending to pay more respect to both Atlanta and the Saints n terms of how strong they will be moving forward, than not.    I am mixed on Ryan but think they have a decent roster to start with. I don’t think he blundered hiring Stefanski. And that offense can be dangerous with a QB. Plus, defense is arrow up. No 1st round pick, WB issues will dull their effectiveness. Question is, to what degree?   I think Moore is going to be a good HC and can overcome tape that people have on Shough. They need a lot but they were playing with people. Just the way you want to see all the way to the end.    Not sure about Tampa they have Mayfield but I don’t think they can maintain their success and Bowles is not going to last much longer. They have to go through all that. Gonna be tough once it starts. Might already have started.    For us I feel pretty good about Morgan. But less so about our offense, we have some short term RB and OL issues and those things are critical given what we are working with at QB.  Overall, mixed. Like a lot of what I see but some major question marks remain.
