jebrick Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 With a draft deep in WR, why give up a pick when you can get the rookie contract? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warfelg Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 I think we’re heavily trending to a trade down in the 1st round. I’ve heard something about the face that some of these C’s might go early 2, so I wouldn’t be shocked to see Omar try to drop from 20 to 28-35 to get an extra mid day 2 asset and a 2025 pick.

This….I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded down and drafted Barton, Guyton, or a wide out with their resulting first pick. I wonder which of the second tier WRs (i.e. non top 15 WRs) they consider to be in the first tier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest is pundits thinking since he struggles at one position that he can change and become a better prospect. So many have failed that way or are often late developers. Remember don't many CBs make the successful switch to play Safety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bet if we take him it's because we're thinking of him as our C of the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if he can be quick with that and show speed and accuracy with the snap he goes late 1 early 2, if not I think he’s a guy that slides.

Most Tackles typically don't have to up against the bigger stronger defensive players. Being a Center or Guard, you gotta be a monster. I don't see that in Barton's tape. I'd rather get Limmer or Bartolini in id to later rounds over Barton early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying I disagree with you but cap room isn’t an issue going forward with he team. Plus there is nothing wrong with getting a proven weapon for the incoming QB of the future(or Fields if he develops) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why trade a 1st for Aiyuk when you can draft solid #1 or #2 WR? If you are taking a 2nd and can get your RT or center in round one that is different but Aiyuk is not worth a #1 pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All while being one of the best run blocking WRs in the league. Agree to disagree. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
