They need to stay where they are and just pluck dudes off the board. If anything, I'd prefer two 2nds over a late first for Alex Smith.

So many needs and honestly I don't think the talent dip is all that severe from late first to bottom half 2nd.

Honestly, thats my thought as well... but I'm not the draftnik some of you other guys are, was just curious if there was some generational type stud who'd be worth it

That Notre Dame guard sounds like one, but even as bad as I want a new LG, thats not a move I'd make even for him

If a team gives us two 2018 2nds, that'd give us 3 total in that round and we'd be set up to really grab some starters. But if no team is offering multiple 2nds but say JAX or BUF are offering a 1st, that'd be nice too.

I wouldn't in that I'm ok trading up for a Qb but other than that, give me more darts to throw at the board.

In the end, it's a guessing game. More guesses = higher probability of hitting.

I concur

Nelson will be a top 10 choice, which isn't realistic at all for KC. There are some good options for LG on Friday though.

I think in an ideal world, they could pull the Texans 2nd round pick and later 2nd rounder for Alex.

I think someone ends up giving up a first. Seems the NFL doesn't value this offseason QB choices like some seem to.

I dunno, interested to see how it plays out.

The Jaguars are crazy if they don't offer their first for Smith if that's what it takes. That is the one team that might be able to carry him all the way, which is evidenced by what they do with Bortles.

They need to strike at the QB position and fast.

O.city · 01-13-2018, 03:38 PM

Maybe the Jags do it. I've kind of got my eye on the Cardinals but it will depend on who they end up hiring as the HC.

Cards pick 15th. That might be too rich to give up but I'd love if they did it.

They might get a first round offer, but personally I'd favor 2 seconds over a first and a day 3 pick. Day 2 is going to have tremendous value this year.

Every word here is true, but a 1st will be a bridge too fare even for them IMO

Gimme a 2nd, a 4th... and we'll call it good

I agree. Even if they got a 1st I would still trade down unless some player that would have went in the top 15 falls.

I agree. We don't need to shutdown corners. If we can find a corner that can handle the pressure of being thrown at all game that would be fine.

Or perhaps we can let Peters actually follow people and take even more pressure off of the #2 corner.

If it’s multiple seconds this year, maybe

If it’s a 2nd with a conditional vs a first I’d take the first simply for the 5th year option

I'm not passing up on a 2018 1st unless you are getting multiple 2018 2nds. Maybe a 2018 2nd and 2018 high 3rd as well.
