- Draft CW al 1:01
- Trade back from 1.09 to somewhere between 1.11 to 1.16
- Pick up an extra 3rd (or a 3rd + 4th) for that trade back
- Draft DL /DE with 2nd pick (Verse, Turner, Young, Laiatu )
- Bundle one of the 2 x 3rd rounders + JF1 to move back into early 2nd round (ideally 33-39)
- Draft best WR available with newly acquired 2nd round pick
- Use remaining 3rd roud pick to take Developmental OL
- Utilize one 4th roud pick on BPA at position of need
- Trade other 4th rounder to recover multipl additional picks in later rounds
Sample outcome:
1.01 Caleb Williams, QB
1.14 Jared Verse, DE (Get 3.78 from Trade Down)
2.35 Ladd McConkey, WR (from trading 3.78 + JF1)
3.75 Mason McCormick C/G
4.110 Cole Biahop, S
3x Picks in rounds 5,6,7 from trading 4.122

Nice job. I wonder if the Bears would take Jackson Powers-Johnson at 14 even though they do need a DE. Also, I'd lean more towards a big-bodied DT in the 3rd.The Kaiser wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 1:58 pm - Draft CW al 1:01

Where are my old Chicago Bears and what have you done with them, Ryan Poles?

I will kill you if you cut me at the knees. You will drink with me when invited and stay til I say so. We only listen to American Music. I make men nervous with just my presence. I expect an apology if you hold. I throw linemen at QB's. Believe the Lore!

Now that Allen is in the fold, Worthy would be an interesting pick in the late teens.Atkins&Rebel wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2024 12:30 pm according to Walter football, here's who we've met with so far:

I was playing with a draft site to determine the value of trading to 2 with Washington as well as trading down from 9.
Ended up with
2 - Drake Maye (maybe Daniels can't decide which one I think is better for us)
18. Jackson Powers-Johnson - he's the guy I like most that a first round guy but not worth #9
36. Xavier Worthy WR TX
40. Tyler Nubin - S Minn
49. Adisa Isaac - Edge Penn St.
67. Michael Hall - DT OSU
75. Jalen McMilan - WR Wash
'25 picks Washington 1 and Cinci 2.

John Ross, et al.
Give me anything besides 40 time for Worthy. Nothing against people who like him as they are posters I respect. I just need convincing.

Put Worthy in the game, hike the ball, and then just throw the ball 50 yards down field. Let him run under it or get a DPI call. LOL! Personally I like Legette in the 3rd round. Dude is a bowling ball with hands.wab wrote: ↑Mon Mar 18, 2024 9:41 amNow that Allen is in the fold, Worthy would be an interesting pick in the late teens.Atkins&Rebel wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2024 12:30 pm according to Walter football, here's who we've met with so far:
