Would you trade up for “the right front 7 player?”

Doubtful. We've traded up to many times the past couple drafts. We need to trade down to accumulate picks. We're losing a lot of free agents, and will need to replace them somewhere.

Fuck it   trade all of our picks and next years first and second as well as Davis to move up and draft Chase Young!

Nope. Jrob needs to take his medicine this year and trade down. You can't trade up every year.

19 K’Lavon Chaisson and pick 91 for 29, 61.

 

17 Derrick Brown for 29, 61 and swap of 6ths.

 

2 beasts there, for sure.  K'Lavon kinda like Jevon (Kearse).  And Brown, whoa.  Can't have enough Brown on the team.  Got AJ Brown, Arthur Smith's Dad owns UPS Brown Fed Ex and one of my fucking vehicles is Brown.  Probably won't happen though, but damn.

The window is open for this team right now. A trade up is definitely on the table.

It's win now mode.  If they can identify and get an impact player - so be it.

 

Now the flip side is that it's likely that OTA's are cancelled and TC may even be reduced.  The odds of having immediate impact from rookies is probably lessened with the Covid deal.

I think this is the perfect year to trade out of the first and at least recoup a 4th.

If OT fly off the board as quickly as predicted I could see an OT desperate team jumping into the late first round to grab one, last year there was a big scramble for OL early in round 2 that scramble could happen late first round this year if a team wants a guy who can start pretty quickly and not wait for a more developmental type guy.

 

The other position I could see teams jumping up for is IDL, assume that Brown/Kinlaw will both be gone by the time the Cowboys pick at #17, if some team in the early to mid 20's take either Marlon Davidson or Ross Blacklock I could see a team jump up from the early-mid 2nd round to get the last of the upper tier IDL, think there is a bit of a drop off after the top 4 to guys like Gallimore/Madubuike/Elliot/Davis.

I can also see it for wideouts. Teams are going to try to duplicate what the Titans did and find the next AJ Brown. So any team with a new QB or need for receiver could be a possible trade partner.

Plenty of WR available in this draft i'm not sure teams will be desperate to trade up for say WR 4/5/6 at the back end of round 1.

Who is?  It’s always about finding the right one for your system. You can’t expect “any one will do” unless you’re just forced into a position to grab a body because you missed a mark.
 

It doesn’t really matter if the position is deep or shallow. The top talent is shallow compared to the whole. It might not spread around enough to last to where a team ideally wants it to. 
 

And what’s more, 4 5 6 etc is going to look different across a lot of boards. So in the end it just comes down to fear of missing out on whomever.

Possibly. However, we are to the point where we will be losing more free agents then retaining. We can't pay everyone. We need to build quality depth, with the next man up mentality.

 

We have very little draft capital this year, and still have some major holes to fill.
