I think the point though is to make the right move and not just trade up for a QB just for the sake of it.

Just because a team trades up for a QB, doesn't mean that QB will be any good in the NFL.  It doesn't even mean that QB will be better than the guys that are drafted later. They shouldn't trade up for a QB unless they are convinced he is the right guy.

According to Pelissero, we got cold feet. If you think this guy can be the QB for the next decade, it shouldn't matter what the price is. That's a big time disappointment if true.

It ALWAYS matters what the price is, even for a QB.  If a team pays, he better be a stud for over a decade . . . Sadly, the stats don't bear favorably for teams making desperate trades.

What's the worst that can happen? We potentially miss out on Mike Hughes and Laquon Treadwell and not win the Super Bowl for 64 years?

The worst thing that could happen is you set the organization back several years before they have another decent chance to build a solid team.

It would be a shame to waste the next 4-5 years of Jefferson's career trapped into mediocre QB play.

Now is not the time to panic.  If a QB that you are reasonably sure will be available go ahead and trade up for him.  If you aren't so confident, consider picking a QB at 11 or 23.  If that guy doesn't work out, try again sooner rather than later.

Three years after the Patriots used a first-round pick on Tom Brady’s potential successor, they’re are it again. Per a league source, the current expectation is that the Patriots will sit tight at No. 3 and take North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye.
