Forget about the pipedream of trading to #3 and Will Anderson

Cardinals will play this card to get Colts to swap 1 spot with them. They get Will Anderson @4 or next best Edge/Carter if somehow Will Anderson goes #2

Would love for that to happen as the Colts are almost forced into taking a QB at 4, even if the rest go top3. Would mean one of Anderson/Carter is available.

If those team are indeed interested in moving up to 3, I’d have to imagine there may be interest in moving to 6 if the cost at three gets too high.

The Titans are the sweet spot to trade down to, IMO. Get their 2nd this year and maybe a 4th next year to replace ours.

At 11 we would have w ton of options I’d be much more comfortable taking with the extra pick. JSN, Bijan, Skoronski, Nolan Smith, Witherspoon/Gonzalez.

I would be fine with any of those picks.

I think the worst possible scenario is that 4QB’s and Anderson go before we pick. No one is trading up for Carter, and I’d be surprised if we picked him.

4 QBs going before our pick is literally the dream scenario for a many of the people here.

If they miss out on 3 and there is still a QB at 6 they want I’d trade the 6th pick and the 18th pick for Simmons and the 11th pick and #41.

I can see the Titans drafting Bijan before trading up for Will Tannyhill Levis (onwazurike)

Again all signs point to Nolan Smith at 6 as Holmes guy. Just remember where you heard it first !

I want Anderson off the board. So that is still a good scenario for me.

I’m sure Arizona would love to trade that pick. Richardson and Levis are a tough sell though. Are you really going to trade up to 3 for one of these guys? Better you than me.

I will just say if by chance Bryce should fall to 3, I’d be one of the teams calling Arizona. You’re only falling to 6 and I’ll offer a pretty good package for it.

There have been quite a few of us on that bandwagon for awhile now.

If the top 5 players are

Cj Stroud
Bryce Young
Will Anderson
Anthony Richardson
Jalen Carter

I think we either trade down or go Nolan Smith.

Mentioning him as a possibility along with the other 99 prospects doesn’t count.

It’s crazy right?

Stroud
W Anderson
N Smith
C Gonzalez
B Jones
B Robinson
JSN

That’s my very short list of guys that look, measure, and move like elite nfl talents.

I can get behind Young’s tape, Skoronskis tape, Wilson tape….

I’m still searching for what J Carter did at some point to get his GENERATIONAL TALENT rep….

Then at #18 guys like Van Ness, Branch, Witherspoon, Bijan, Banks, Sanders, Campbell, Flowers all have some things I like a lot about their games.

Will Anderson is the only player in the draft I’d give up a mid 2nd for….

So if he’s not there, and he won’t be…. Then I would drop to #11 to add a 2nd over anyone else.

#11 and #42- wouldnt everyone take B Jones and Jack Campbell over T Wilson?

Watch Jalen Carter vs LSU in the SEC championship. By far the best game I ever saw him play. Just think if he was in shape. He could’ve had class. He could’ve been a contender. He could’ve been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what he is.

Jack Campbell, Darius Rush, and Tucker Kraft are the only reasons why I’m not completely on board 100% with getting back into round 1 with our Day 2 picks to get 3 1st round picks.

Exactly my point… you actually word for word say you wouldn’t take him at 6. Bandwagons getting full man.

Pick a side! Make a stance! getting out of the safe zone in the middle wishy washy

I gotta tell you. That sound an aweful lot like a best case scenario, to me.

This was 10 days ago. Since then I have stated several times that if the top 5 go the way most expect, I think Smith is the pick if we can’t trade down.
