And really if they don't go defense, they take a tackle
Decker, Dahl, Ragnow, Vatai and Wirfs/Willis/Thomas is a big upgrade for the line
It could be elite pass protection and good run blocking together. They would need to nail Round 2 and 3 for defense though.
Ya im with you this could be a smoke screen or it could be a put the feeler out now that our D is good so i can pick a QB or OT at #3 and get less backlash. He cant be that stupid where he'd actually think that would work, can he? lol
He will get his ass handed to him if
1) He cant figure out how to trade down
2) Hes stuck at 3 and doesnt go CB or OLB.
Personally i see a ton of value to go OT at 3. I dont want them too cause our D is so brutal....but i see the value in it. On the other hand...if OT is your target then you definitely look to move down some spots because there are 3 top 10 calibur OTs in this draft.
I could understand QB at #3. I dont want them to. But for the future of this team it doesnt help anyone to pay Stafford $35 mil in a couple years.
If im honest i dont see much value in picking Okudah at #3. I dont think hes this Deion Sanders type difference maker. I see him struggling for a couple years out of the gate. Also, theres rumore a lot of teams have CJ Henderson rated above Okudah. If Henderson is Quin's target once again a move down makes some sense.
My updated draft preferences ranked would be:
1) Chase Young falls to us at #3
2) Trade Down to #5-#12...pick BPA CB, DT, OT
3) Draft Simmons at #3
4) Draft OT at #3
5) Draft QB at #3. Your best chance at drafting a quality qb is in the top 10. And if youre not planning on being in the top 10 again any time soon then this may be your only shot to pick a quality qb in the near future.
