need more information to answer this question like, how many spots are we moving up and how much would it cost to move up?......who's still on the board?
Who would you trade up for?
- Thread starter The Goat
- Start date
If for some reason no OT's went in the top 10, I'd consider it.
Denver could have an interest in picking up draft capital. You could swap a 2nd (they don't have one) for their 3rd and throw in a third next year (we'll have 3). They could probably still get Nix at 21.
They have a lot of later rounds picks but a big gap between pick 12 and pick 76.
You could even swap 2 seconds for 2 thirds and ask for one of their 4th rounders in return. Our second next year shouldn't be too far off their 3rd next year, so its not much of a drop.
And to answer the question, it would be for Alt. I do also like the potential of Fashanu learning from Armstead for a year (and likely filling in for him as well during the year).

I feel there's a strong chance the 2025 first is traded away. I sure hope not
Thats way too much compensation to move up 9 spots. You wouldn't need to give up nearly that much.
Wouldn't be that bad of a deal if you get one of Carolina or Washington's early seconds. I'd have no problem with that. There should still be some quality OL available at the top of the second round.
I wouldn't be opposed to jumping up a few spots to get Troy Fautanu if he drops beyond #16.
Exactly.
Say there's a guy like Morgan at 36. Miami drafted Dejean or even Barton at 21.
Trading away our 1st next year foe 36 would not be a bad deal.
I mean, it would most likely be a pick in the 20's. I say pick 32.
So to get a quality tackle like Morgan at 36 may make it worth it.
More then likely, a starting quality tackle with Morgan's ceiling, is more valuable to me, then probably ny player Miami can get from 21-32 next year..
But that's just me.
My dream scenario right now is trading down to 27 with Arizona, letting them come up and get one of the project OT's (Mims or Guyton) and then trading down to 33 with Carolina, letting them come up for a WR. Giving us the first pick tomorrow night and bunch of additional assets. There should be some quality OL available to us at the top of the 2nd round. I'd also like to help Carolina come up for a WR, ahead of Buffalo and KC.
Or, doing that deal with Washington that lands up 36 and 40. I'd even trade one of those picks for a 2025 first rounder, if someone was so inclined.
I am not too concerned with any one player at this point, I just want to "win the deal", as many times as possible.

I dont think we are in a position to trade up. We need more draft capital not less.
Trading up? I guess it's possible with Grier as GM and we do have lots of extra picks next year to offer.
My choice would be TE Bowers.
