Not really interested in deferring and deferring and deferring
Rookie contracts are going to start rolling over
Don’t want to get into situation where you have 3 round 1 rookies coming due in same year
Just maximize each year
If you trade down and get a couple selections for next year that’s fine, but not “serial trading down”
Nobody’s ever done this — probably for good reason!
The simulator only does the first round. So in this scenario we would have the 30th pick in the first this year in which I took kancey. We’d still have both our second round picks, one third and one fifth. Next year we would have 5 first round picks, 2 second round picks 1 third and fourth, 2 fifths and a sixth and seventh.
If the 2024 draft has a true superstar quarterback we’d have the ammo to go get him. As well as insurance picks in case we wanted to move on from decker who would be 30. Or if jamo doesn’t pan out for some reason. At the very least it would give us a ton of flexibility to make any kind of move Holmes wanted to make.
Of course not. I do like the idea of adding 5 blue chip talents to our team in one draft. Especially if a gifted quarterback emerges. I like Goff. I know we can win with him. However, if there’s an opportunity to draft a high end franchise quarterback you have to make that move.
Only if you actually took a player with all those picks. In the hypothetical draft, when the one with five first round picks take place, I think you end up with more trades, some up some pushing things forward again.
No, i don’t see the draft as realistic just as @najacks didn’t.
Oline men play well into their late 30s. The idea of moving on from Decker is a bad one. Barring injury he could be here another 8 years easily. He also mentioned in an interview that he took it personally when he heard all the trade decker rumors. He said he wants to be considered a key piece of the franchise and retire here.
And hell no i do not want a 265lb dt in the first 2 rounds ever.
