Geneaut Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 #1 - I know TD rarely drops back #2 - I know you have to have partners #3 - I know the QB class is substandard so teams may not be moving up #4 - This is more a discussion thread than an actual position. A little early to get a great handle on the draft at this point pre-Combine. If we can get any value for our 1st at #14 should we move back deeper into the 1st while getting some additional picks. Just going from #14 to around #21 can net you the value of a low 2nd rounder. Spend all 3 picks on the line, or maybe snag a special talent at LB/CB with one pick. If the DL talent is as deep as they say it's a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francis York Morgan Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Impossible to say without knowing who's available. A lot can change between now and the draft, and some fantastic players at positions of need could slip to us. Who knows - maybe something crazy happens and a guy like Quinnen Williams slips to 7, causing TD to even trade up. But, as always, I wouldn't mind a trade down if the draft falls the right way.

1989Fan Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Move up for a stud. We generally aren’t picking high enough to make a move. Chance to capitalize on our draft position. Just another way to look at it...that said many of the great DTs are drafted right where we pick (Donald, Cox, etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. #14 lets us move up or down fairly easy. I think there's enough DL talent to not move up for it, but as you said it's so early in the process you never know.

Falcanuck Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I’d be OK with moving back 8-10 spots and drafting a stud OL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RING OF HONOR Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I would stay where we are....grab the best OT available....then grab the best DT available...and in the 3rd grab the best OG available.. #Trenches# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew4719 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 If Quinnen Williams, Ed Oliver, Jeffery Simmons, and Jonah Williams are all gone by 14, I could see us trading back and picking Dexter Lawrence or Christian Wilkins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draftnut57 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I'd stay right where we are... We will be able to get a really good player.. ,, If we trade ,, I think we will trade down in maybe the 6th rd to pick up an extra pick,, We've done that a few other times in the draft.. I like it.. gives us another draft pick and the top players where in the top 5 rounds.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
