Cleveland getting Oliver at 12 would be a huge steal.

Baker at 16 is also a big one.

Yeah it would. Honestly this may be the year we should trade down and solidify our dline.

I bet a QB ends up top 5 still

[vel 30,829]

Give me Jonah or Josh Allen days before Dexter Lawrence.

With the 5th pick in the 2018 NFL draft, we have a trade.

Falcons trade the #5 pick to Oakland for picks #25, #26 and #35

[Sidecar Falcon 6,142]

15/32 picks in the 1st Round are defensive line. Some good position groups are going to the second round.

Not nearly enough to move up. Add their first next year and maybe...

Honestly. I’d do it. This draft is loaded with dline. The only debate would be if we somehow manage to get the 2nd overall pick. Do we take Williams/Bosa. Or trade back, gather more picks and stock up.

I would quit watching if we gave up a top 5 pick for 2 end of the 1st picks. I'm all for trading down but you can't move so far back that you miss out on getting one of the high end DT/DE/OT

Let’s take their #35 then...and a 3rd next year

[vel 30,829]

The fact that he's got Gary going #2 tells you all you need to know. McShay is clueless. As usual.

No doubt.  Baker is also way too low. Great value at #16...and you know 3 QB’s will find their way into the 1st round

Trade down:

[Falcanuck 10,297]

Worst mock yet lmao

[Atlantafan21 8,264]

I’d be pissed if we drafted Lawrence at 5. He’s a one trick, nose tackle pony. I’d take 20 other players before I even think of taking Lawrence. 

[blizzard_falcon 2,325]

How does Todd McShay / ESPN have the projected draft order wrong?  These aren't the correct projections at all.  He's got the tiebreakers all wrong for multiple teams, including us (we should be #4).

[Cheap Talk 1,228]

Looks like he expects a run on OTs.

I wouldn't doubt it. If a team has a specific one they want, they might have to move up this year to get him. We know these QBs start rising up the board weeks ahead of the draft as the media hypes them up. It will be good to be in the top 5 for trade back opportunities.

This. There are a dozen first round talents at DT. 

[jidady 7,720]

Lawrence is who I want the most out of reasonably available players right now, but if there is a belief that Oliver would be available that late, I'd be furious if we didn't trade down.

Yeah when I watched Lawrence I was like meh, but watching Josh Allen flying around like a heat-seeking missile I was like this guy is the guy we need.

Reminds me of when Lattimore went to the Saints.

It could happen if the FO unanimously falls in love with someone in particular who they know will fall - a small school rockstar DE/DT or a G, perhaps.
