FGK Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 38 minutes ago, ReggieCamp said: Are you advocating moving up for him? Absolutely. I don't want to say more about WHY because I'll tip my hand to who he is. But let's just say I think he's EXACTLY what we need on that side of the ball, at a higher level than anyone else still available in this draft, by a lot. After the Philly trade gave us 3 extra picks, we have something like 12 left right now. 12! For once in the recent history of our franchise we can't roster that many rookies! I'd rather use that ammo NOW for an (imo) elite player, than in a couple rounds to move from meh players to okay players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are just trying to salvage what we can. 🙂 That sucks man. I feel y'all. Good luck salvaging it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fully agree yet don’t at the same time love the player or at least what the player projects to be strength wise but feel like we need to target a different group at this stage in the draft Edited April 1, 2021 by malibuspeedrace 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see addressing that with our two thirds, as far as value is concerned. I also low key want to make Sonic the Burger a Brown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're just ranking the positional needs, I'd have his at #3-4 right now. But I think we've gotten to the point with the roster where we can (not every pick, but sometimes) shoot for the moon. We can ignore (to a degree) positional need. Now, would I take like, a QB here? Oh Lord no. But Feels would see the field right away, it's not like we're talking about taking a stash and see player in the 2nd here. We're just talking about addressing our #4 need before #'s 1-3 (which I think even with this trade up we could hit needs 1-3 by the end of the 3rd round with the picks we have to work with). Plus, it's FFMD, why not go a little crazy? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm partially kidding, but also, no.) We have so much continuity on offense. We need like, one last piece. No moving our starting X mid way through the 2nd. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LinebackerGod Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I’d consider moving our 2nd for a starting DE or CB, if there are any good ones out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear Takk Mckinley is available. He is a former first rounder who could use a change of scenery. I'll see if a second gets it done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be able to steal him away for a 4th. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, hot take and all, but I kinda like our DE room and would be okay waiting for a later guy or pick up another FA/trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. At least one of these guys might pop. I bet it’s Joe Jackson, but I lost all my cred with him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
