So Pat Kirwan and Jim Miller put on a 3rd Mock draft yesterday.  They have talked to most players, and GM/Head Coaches of teams.  Scouted needs etc.  They each too alternating picks from their compiled lists for each team. I one chose a player they wanted, they had to go to next best players on list for that team.  They could trade, too.  And, Kirwan put on his be front office suit and put on the Dave Gettleman posture.  He had the G men trade all around (OBJ and #2 in separate deals), including with Colts. We move back to #9 and with more picks (#66 and #135).  Here is how first round went as I listened floating in my swimming pool here in SW FL...

NY Giants, trade pick #2 to Broncos for their #5 and next year #1 (NYG have #5 and #9)
2.  Broncos take Sam Darnold
3.  Jets take Baker Mayfield (sorry Miami)
4.  Cleveland takes Saquon Barkley
5.  NY Giants take Quentin Nelson
NY Giants trade pick #9, #66, and #135 to Colts for pick #6

21. Bengals take Harold Landry
22. Bills take Mike McGlinchey
23. Patriots take Leighton Vander Esch
24. Panthers take Jaire Alexander

28. Steelers take Rashaan Evans
29. Jaguars take D.J. Moore
30. Vikings take Isaiah Wynn
31. Patriots take Conner Williams
32. Eagles 'fans boo' as they take DJ Chark


Colts had picks-
6, 36, 37, 49, 67, 104, 140, 178, 221 going in to their mock draft.

 

Then Kirwan says we trade and thus get-

9, 36, 37, 49, 66, 67, 104, 135, 140, 178, 221.  Kirwan had us take Roquan Smith at #9.  I'll post round 2 later. Thoughts?

Packers trade for Giants next year #1 pick, this year #34, #69, #108

 

That's one big gamble and potentially horrible trade for the Giants. At least keep it realistic (not shooting the messenger).

 

As for the Colts, I'm okay with it but I think I prefer Edmunds.

Roquan is awesome - as a weak side linebacker.

He has great instincts and could be a day 1 starter at Will.

 

Edmunds has awesome potential  and would probably be used as a strong side linebacker.

 

Edmunds will have a big learning curve and will most certainly make some rookie mistakes.

 

Both of these guys would make our team better.

If we traded down and were able to snag Roquan Smith, I can dig that. Especially if the best player in the draft, Quenton Nelson, is not available as in this scenario. 

 

My thought is I would've like to see us trade back up into round 1 in this scenario and snag his teammate Isaiah Wynn. He's not Quenton Nelson, but he's seriously good, and I believe he would help our team tremendously. 

 

In any event, the Giants made out like bandits in this mock draft (although I guess it costs them OBJ).

Wow if this happend and your a giants fan you must be happy. They get Chubb, Nelson, and add picks. That's a homerun for them.

 

Chubb, Nelson, and Ridley to replace OBJ. They lost other picks and next year #1

Kirwan was an Ex front office/personnel guy for Jets.  He has actually performed these calls/trades. We fans always want more than is offered.  I do as well. He is somewhat more realistic then we fans.

 

Smith projects as WILL for base D, but we will be in Nickel and Dime most of the time and he is a MIKE in that instance.

The trade with the Giants is woefully inadequate. They’d have to pony up a lot more than that. 

 

Then the trade doesn't get done, we stay at 6 and Giants try to trade with Bucs etc...

 

I take it you want Chub, and forgo two extra picks and sliding down 3 spots?
