siamesedinasour Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 I am sure we are shopping it around, and if somebody is willing to give up something meaningful, I hope we do that. But I suspect we are not going to find any suitors who are willing to give us what we want. Our best hope would likely be a quarterback falling farther than expected, and a team in the early second expecting to take one. Alcibiades 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkiller Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 Maybe Jordan Love drops to #29 and a team like Detroit or Carolina wants to move up to grab him. Soxcat 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

japan Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) I think this just tells you that we are preparing for all scenarios at #29. If our guy isn’t there then we are lining up some quick calls on draft day. Edited April 15, 2020 by japan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryBoats Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 This is meaningless. Who the hell makes trade talks about a late 1st round draft pick before the draft actually starts? Nobody knows who is still going to be on the board, and in the case that someone highly coveted is still there, it takes away the leverage you have to maximize the return on the trade if teams know that you didn't want to use it anyway.

socaltitan Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 I'm sure just about every team in the back half of the 1st round would love to trade down. I'm still expecting us to pick at 29. Mythos27, AussieTitanFan08, and Starkiller 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is widely reported a lot of the first round trades come from discussions leading up to the draft where trade parameters are put in place before the draft, a lot of times these deals never get enacted when the team actually get on the clock. A perfect example of this was 2017 when JRob had trade parameters in place to trade back from pick #5 with the Chiefs, ultimately he decided to stick and pick Corey Davis. tgo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can certainly imagine that with the first 5-10 picks. I'd really like to see what that looks like for the the last 5-10 picks, and what a team would hypothetically offer us if Chase Young is still on the board.

It would be meaningful if JRob wants to trade down. But I’m sure that’s true for plenty of teams late in round 1. But no one thinks any trade down will get finalized until they are on the clock and the draft board is set. AussieTitanFan08 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
socaltitan Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 I do think we're in a decent spot for a trade down. GB picks right behind us so a team that might want to jump ahead of them for a WR (CIN, CAR) could be an option. Kcroy420 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carolina are an interesting team because there is a lot of speculation about them wanting to accumulate 2021 draft capital to make a run at getting Trevor Lawrence, the obvious guy they would be targeting in any trade up would be Baylor WR Denzel Mims who has the obvious connection with Matt Rhule. I still think it is unlikely a suitable trade partner would be found but for me the 3 logical teams would be - Chargers for an OT - Broncos for an OT - Bucs for their choice of RB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reo Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 Not a huge surprise. You can probably trade back and still get a decent RT. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
