Interestingly enough if, Odunze isn’t available to the Bears at 9 they might be quite a willing trade partner. They might not see much difference between the WR they want at nine and what they could get at 32 from us.

I like this. Like, i like this a lot! Granted, im not a draft guru (at all). This is obviously a pipe dream, but if Veatch can land a legacy player here, you've got you a franchise LT for 10 years (maybe)!! It's a lot of capital to give up, and im not sure this enough picks to give up. But if anyone has the nuts to do it, it's BV!!

Gonna be a fun week!!!

A 1st and 3rd plus a 1st next year isn't going to get you anywhere near the #9 overall pick.

i think it's the change comment he put there (just not actually listed).

i agree with you that it'll take more than just those 3 picks of ours. may have to add special teams player jason putnum. putney. whatever. /Draft Day.

I know it's not a position of real need but if sweat was to drop to 32 would he be a consideration ? I didn't know he got a DUI recently until now

Also , can we start a rumor that Alt is a heroin addict so he'll drop to us ? Asking for a friend

It's the simulators. They value a future draft pick as being in the middle of the round, so if you try to trade one of KC's future draft picks they put a much higher value on it than any NFL team would do right now, and you end up with something that just isn't going to happen. Trades have a big problem at any time on the simulators, but made much much worse when you work with future picks.

Sweat might still be on the board in the 3rd for us, now. He was limited before the poor decision.

Swears been dropping since the CFB playoffs wrapped up. He looks more like a rich man’s Keondre Coburn and less like the poor man’s Vince wilfork he was sold as.

This! It is a matter of which team will trade with us and how high we can go. He also used the word "INTREST" meaning it will cost us our next years 1st or 2nd to get there. So, the question is, trade up with "who" and which targeted OT?

Move up to 14 with the Saints to get possibly Taliese Fuaga? Move up to 16 with the Seahawks and possibly get JC Latham? Man Thursday is too far away! LOL! Who do you want if OT is the goal? How high would you want to move up?
