Here's the problem.

 

Offering just a 6 doesn't move you up 10 spots in the 2nd round.   Not even close.

 

And offering just a 7 doesn't move you up roughly 10 spots in the 3rd round.     Not even close.

 

Teams will want and expect more to move up like that.

 

Picks that low typically won't move you more than a couple of spots.    That's all.

I don't see Fowler dropping to 26th, but the combine will clear things up. If we get a 5th as comp., one thing we could do is package a 5 and a 6, worth 57 points, and trade into the late 4th round. The 4th is a spot where you just get past the top 100 and players who drop unexpectedly are there for the gamble. Remember, we got Montcrief a t#92 last year. He fell due to worries about his hands. If we want a RB, the 4th would be a good place to take one if we have 2 picks. If we get the comp. I would not mind swapping it and the Seattle pick for another 4th rounder!

    • Trade him? He just handed him a nice extension.
    • Yes, thanks, you’re right. When the Panthers traded to get the 1 is when Ballard said he didn’t have all the information to make the trade. That’s strange to me.  “Didn’t want to make a blind decision without all the information,” Ballard told reporters Monday. “I know for people, they might not understand that. But I think history kind of tells you that when you do that, you better know what you’re getting. And we weren’t quite ready to do that at that time. And then we feel like there’s enough depth in the draft that we were gonna be okay.”   This was in late March. Ballard had a chance to get the 1 and use it to take Stroud not Young. I think it’s strange he said he didn’t move up to 1 because it would have been a “blind decision.” Why would it be a blind decision in March? Why wouldn’t you know what you’re getting? You’re getting whoever you want if you get the 1. It didn’t happen, but Ballard could have recognized that Stroud was going to be superior, could have made the trade and could have drafted him. Ballard admits it never occurred to him to attempt the trade because it would be a “blind decision.” 
    • I cringed after seeing the way his leg bent underneath him to the point of him sitting down on it. Buckner is one tough dude and to see him needing help to get off the field is when I knew he was going to be out for a while.
    • He probably felt confident Bowers would still be on the board at 15 once he made it past NYJ at 11.  He could've been trading up with other teams to move up to get Brock Bowers, but unfortunately, the Raiders had their eyes set on him and took him at 13.
    • Not now...   Let the year play out. Maybe at the end of the season...
