TL-TwoWinsAway Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 (edited) @Karnage84 @LionArkie @Sllim Pickens @BigC421/ @Louis Friend @Bishop86 The Saints are interested in trading down from #24. The pick is worth 740. I mentioned #37 (530), #85 (165) and #168 (23), which totals 718. The Saints' GM likes it. The value is on our side, we get to move up 13 spots to a prime area of the draft, and only lose the Slay 3rd round pick and a mid 5th. We still have pick #35, #67 and two 4th round picks. (This can, of course, be contingent on a certain player being available.) I'm a huge fan of this. Huuuuge. Thoughts?

I know we've discussed this, but always thought it was a positional reach. I know he's super talented, but... Feels like Aaron Curry all over again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not against a trade up but would want to wait and see who is there before giving up the extra capital. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not against a trade up but would want to wait and see who is there before giving up the extra capital. I don't disagree. We could make a board of 10 or so players and have the deal contingent on one of those players being there. Something like that. That way, when we get closer (or on the clock), it won't take a lot of effort to make the trade official. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karnage84 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 What pick are we at now? Like 8th or 9th? I'd like to wait until pick 19 or 20 and see how the board is shaking out before really starting to put together that kind of list. I think the parameters of the trade have been worked out, so it's really just whether an execution is in order or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't move up, I guess we could offer #85. I think I'd rather draft a RB this year, as the class is deep, but one can't argue with Cook's ability.

Sllim Pickens Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 21 31 16 42 65 82 These are guys I would be interested in moving up for. If they aren't available, I dont see anything pressing to move up and lose later picks. I really like the 2nd/3rd rounds of this draft.

Thats my thought too. pretty much but at that point in the draft, I like Cook better than the lotto tickets we would be drafting. And would free up an earlier pick if we were to use it on a RB.
