I think I would also trade down since I am at the point where it is Sewell & Pitts...and then trade down for assets. I have almost come full circle on Surtain, too. It's very tempting to me to just sit there and make the incredibly obvious and safe pick, and go win some football games. I'm fine if they don't go that direction, but I do think we risk outsmarting ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I'm assuming that teams have already made their trade and all 5 QBs are off the board. Hard to imagine this scenario playing out any other way. If all 5 QBs are off the board by the time our pick is up, then I’d question why either of those teams would want to jump up. That said, I’d still consider trading with NE.

NE seems unlikely, but maybe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas_OutLaw7 Posted April 22, 2021 Author Share Posted April 22, 2021 With rumors swirling of the Chargers liking OL - I wonder if Slater falls if they don't start calling Dallas very heavily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be surprised. Slater’s versatility makes him the 2nd best OL, but the drop off to Darrisaw at LT is not that large, and the dropoff to AVT at guard isn’t that significant, either. Chargers aren’t going to give up a bounty to move up. And from our end, are we going to let the Eagle or Giants select our top 2 choices, just for, at best, a mid third round pick? I can’t see the Chargers being a trade match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextyearfordaboyz Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Let's say you plan to use #115 to trade up in either the 2nd or 3rd round. Basically: Option A (2nd round trade up) #38 & #75 Or Option B (3rd round trade up) #44 & #62 You have to make the decision right now, not knowing to what players are on the board. Which would you do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there is going to be a big talent break somewhere around the late-60s. At #62, you can even feel really comfortable that a rookie starting corner will be sitting there for you.

Texas_OutLaw7 Posted April 22, 2021 Author Share Posted April 22, 2021 That said, if you tell me I get Pitts at round 10 - I am probably okay using a ton of picks to go get Horn/Surtain if we feel that they are a level above the rest (if not, we wait).

Thought I seen that somewhere along the line. Either way, not sure it makes much sense. We would be trading one WR for another. This trade only puts Coop's value at pick 50, which isn't high enough for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
