They may not be comfortable with him at 1, but at 3 with extra ammo I can't see how we pass him up. I think trading with the Giants is almost guaranteed at this point and our draft will start at 3. Is Carter too good to pass up on more ammo? Maybe. What happens if Carter is too good to pass up for the Browns and Ward is still there? This is just a really interesting draft, much more than the last time we had the 1st pick because we don't have a QB on the roster. oldschool 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are willing to take Ward #3 he's worth going #1. ctm 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DallasTitan Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 I agree with you! However I’m not certain I want to trade into 20s! I think that Penn State TE could be a game changer and getting him would assist in uplifting our offense! We should know more by Thursday with free agency! Hopefully at least 1 lineman for the right side Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctm Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 The Qb market is going to look entirely different a week from today. At that point, those who are clamoring for a trade down are going to face the reality of who the alternative 2025 QB they want. There won't be anymore hypotheticals like let's just sign Darnold, etc. 9 Nines, and WG53 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me guess you put stock in the bogus reports about character concerns people are pushing to lower his draft stock huh? Just how the board shakes out. I think there will be one "surefire 1st round" edge prospect who slips to the 2nd-- its a deep pool at the top of the draft for edge prospects. And yes, there has been enough smoke around his effort from last season and questioning if he fits with every lockeroom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mostly agree but I guess it is possible that if their final decision is between drafting Ward or trading out...then I could see how that would make sense. If they weren't really considering Ward with the #1 pic then that probably doesn't change much at #3....at that point you trade out again if Carter was your goal.

titansfan Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 42 minutes ago, IsntLifeFunny said: Not a chance. Funny enough his comp for me is Landry before the Achilles tear coming out of BC. He has a similar bend and rip move, similar explosion, and he's also a versatile piece when his mind is right with stacking the edge. He's a bit of an enigma, but he's easily a first round edge. My dream scenario if we aren't taking Ward is to trade all the way down to the late teens and take either Pearce or Green. That puts us in the realm of some of the game breaking TEs as well as RTs. If we could get extra firsts plus have 4 picks in the top 50 that would go a hell of a long way to rebuilding. If we could come out with the Penn State TE, Green/Pearce/and a legit RT in the first 45 picks to go with extra future ammo consider me a happy camper. No one is arguing that he's a 1st round prospect. I'm proposing the very real possibility that a 1st round graded edge slips to 35. You guys are acting like that's impossible.

I would think so but that may not be the case and they are comfortable at 3 with whoever falls. It would depend on how they rank Carter versus Ward while also knowing the 1st pick isn't worth anything other than a QB. You have zero idea how Borgonzi sees this. He's a brand new GM. Don't pretend you understand his calculus. I don't. It is possible he has Carter so far ahead of Ward l yet refuses to take a non-QB at 1. oldschool 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always funny watching two Newton's go at it not understanding they're dealing with a known unknown, which is Borgonzi's board or philosophy regarding the #1 pick. I'm not saying it's a likely scenario they take Ward at 3. I am saying they may not view Carter or Ward as worthy of the 1st pick, which would be different at 3 after accumulating assets. Nice try and failure trying to frame the conversation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the same caliber as Landry...without the Achilles tear. Maybe another guy falls but it isn't Pearce or Green. I wasn't even responding to your interaction with Oman, just the understanding that yeah Pearce is going in the first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
