Would This Draft Day Trade Make Sense?


Recommended Posts

there are 2 teams in the playoffs who got there 2 different ways.  The Pats made moves like the OP is talking about, while the Jags stayed put every year and kept picking blue chip players.  The Jags have the more talented defense, but the Pats know how to use the talent they have. It depends on our next coaching staff and if their schemes are sound enough.  Right now, I would have to have a future 1st round or I wouldn't do it.  But I really like the idea.  Tempting.

You don’t know where he’s ranked now.  Just because some so called draft experts has him up there means nothing.  Just look at the first round last year, none of those talking heads (or hairs) had it right.

 

And the other reason is, why not?  He’s a competitor.   Unless he’s injured, he’ll run, catch and lift.  Mark it.  

I don’t think he will. Not because he isn’t a competitor but because his agent will tell him not to.  

 

I have marked and noted your argument for the record.

@Fluke_33  You're not the only one who marked and noted this for the record.

 

Your crow is prepared.  Start eating.

    • I'm all for doubling down and going EDGE in the 1st again. Just got to make sure we get the right one. Depending on where we draft, I'm okay with trading up a couple of picks to snatch the better pass rusher of the bunch. Since there will be a good amount of rushers, I hear, let's go get the better one. I can also see the draft being the opposite as this years. Most teams will go defense now in this draft, and very good offensive players fall. I think we are perfect on offense, that's why I'm okay with trading up to get the guy we need on defense.
    • IMHO , its all about perspective   If you treat Pierce as WR1, you will be disappointed   If you treat Pierce as a solid contributor, you will be pleased   - The man can block, maybe the best blocking WR on this team - The man has speed - The man can rotate in with our other WRs   I do believe that AD Mitchell will take over as a starting outside WR   The reality is, 17 games is a LONG season,    Pittman and AD Mitchell will be "fresher" for the end of the game as they are rotated in and out   The odds say that there will be injuries, and we could see Pierce be a starter on either side   I for one, WANT to keep Pierce thru his rookie deal (We will see after that)      
    • Zach Moss is no RB1.  If he showed signs he was the Bills wouldn’t have traded him for Hines who also is no RB1.  Moss is a RB 2.  A good one too.  Fortunately for him a season playing behind the Colts OL worked out favorably for him. Moss became available because we have an RB1 and the Bengals jumped at the chance to fill a hole in their lineup and Moss can do that like he did for the Colts when Taylor wasn’t available.  He is not a back teams have to worry about like they have to do for Taylor.  Every team needs an RB1.  He was the Bills RB1 for a short time and shipped off to the Colts for Hines.  And they drafted him.  He certainly belongs on a NFL roster.  I wish he stayed to back up Taylor.  But money and opportunity always talks as it should.  I worry about our RB position if something happens to Taylor for a long period.  I think we should be looking for a proven player who would be that true backup you can rely on behind Taylor.  Right now that backup position is a position that concerns me.   The other being starting FS.
