Trade Up For MIKE EVANS?

Was going to make this thread earlier but was hoping someone would. Since no one did, I will.

Curtis Conway (NFL Network) thinks so.

Imo, Evans is soley the best WR in this draft! With the additions of Dickson and DeCoud, I would invest the future on this kid with no hesitation. Evans would easily help this team for another NFCS title run.

I say no way we move up to get a WR. Again for the thousandth time. this draft is too deep at WR to give up something for one. We could wait til rd 3 to start looking at WR's and still get a couple good ones.

Sure its a deep class of wr, but none of them is comparable to MIKE EVANS!

Very unlikely we trade up at all. I would be pretty surprised, I don't expect Gettleman to mortgage the future. It's too deep a draft.

 

 

I agree it makes no damn sense and I wish people would drop it honestly.

 

Evans isn't worth it, no one is. We need all of our picks and our staff has picked pretty well so far so I want to see what a real GM can do with his full arsenal of picks since last year he only had 5 to work with and hit good on 3 of them.(the other 2 are still  a ? )

Normally I am 100% against moving up in the draft, plus it has bit us before.

 

But with us being in such cap hell, we could probably save a couple bucks by trading away some picks to move up.  This might be the year to do it.

 

As long as we aren't giving up so much we mortgage our future.  I wouldn't do an Atlanta for what's his face trade for instance.

....The dude isn't even the consensus top receiver in the draft. Most put Sammy Watkins as better.

Wow, consensus? Seriously?

Evans is a STUD! Watkins can be great but is still RAW. Evans is a plug and play WR. Looked phenomenal at the combine and pro days. Study the player and quit reading stuffs. Evans made Manziel!

    • Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it. 
    • Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.
