Should we trade up to grab a high rank WR?

this is assuming we seek a rookie WR to be our #1 or 2. I hear we have interest in Brandin Cooks but cloning Smitty should not be our focus. His tapes prove him to be fast and shifty which is nice but upgrading for the future and finding that type WR we've never had should be key imo. So should we grab a higher ranked WR or play the board game?

I hate that people are turned off to the idea of drafting Cooks because he is compared to Smith. 

 

We aren't interested in him because we want a Steve Smith clone. It's not "our focus". We are interested in him because he's a damn good receiver who may be available at our pick. On film, on the stat sheet and based on combine results he is a top 5 WR in this loaded draft class. 

 

But to answer your question, no. We don't need to trade up. This draft is deep.

I would not mind it at all. It would excite the poo out of me!!!!!

Assuming we get Jones and Cotchery + cbs help, I would love to trade up for Watkins or Evans. Only those two tho. I like Lee but we could gamble our chances of him being there at 28.

watkins would wipe away the last 2 weeks around here. lol

    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
    • Bryce youngs first starts for 3 years   51 of 103 49%     153 yards avg 6 ints 2 tds   But this is the year he turns it around
    • His third year was worse than Bryce's third year, significantly so.  And he had a game where he threw for 120 yards, two inteceptions, and had a fumble.  He had multiple games where he threw for more int's than td's.
