k-met57 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 people go nuts for trading down, which i am ok with....but someone has to make it worth your while to go down from a top 3 pick if there are elite players as a position of need available. is someone giving us multiple first rounders? are we getting 3 two's to go down 3 slots?

RoadFan Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Trading down is good in theory. I have been adamant about offense and protecting Darnold for months. Also a sound strategy, one nobody would argue against. But the Jets haven't had an elite pass rusher in over 20 years. The Jets have a chance to draft one at #3. Which player is the right one is debatable (Quinnen Williams is my choice despite having to stomach another DT pick in the 1st round because I believe he is an All-Pro in the making). I am not sure I pass on this opportunity for another franchise cornerstone unless the price is outageous. Use the entire rest of the draft on offensive line and cornerback. But take the pass rusher... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycdan Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The same Saints who traded their 2019 1st round pick to move up 13 slots to the middle of the 1st round? Or the Saints who traded away a draft pick or Eli Apple? The same Saints who have just 6 picks this year and next? Like someone said...that team is all and only about the best FA signing in NFL history. They never even really surrounded him with great talent until about 2 years ago. What you meant to say is let's draft the equivalent of Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas? That sounds like a good plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaSteve Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Saints should have been in the last two Super Bowls: First one they lose because of a miracle play and one of the biggest bone-head moves by a defender EVER, second they lost because of one of the worst non-calls EVER in the history of the NFL.

I am not sure I pass on this opportunity for another franchise cornerstone. Agreed. If the Jets strike an offer they can't turn down (even though it's hard trusting the GM with picking the right guys) they should probably take it, but grabbing the next young stud pass rusher would finally end that 10+ year headache. Is Allen that much better then trading down and picking up someone like Burns and C + WR or CB tho? Could even double up on pass rush with the first 2 picks.

Ohhthepain Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I feel like people forget that there also needs to be a team that agrees to trade up to make a trade down possible. We cant just proclaim "Trade down!" And then it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTJetsFan Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 It takes 2 to tango. We need someone willing to come up to 3 to make it happen. That being said - we can address edge, center, CB & WR with our 1st 4 picks. Also remember that Claiborne is still unsigned. Wonder if we might bring him back on a reasonable deal.

RichardTodd27 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Trading down wouldn've been the way to go had we gotten our edge rusher in free agency. Now, I'm not sure we have that option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The op is 100% correct. In one draft the saints went from decent team to true contender.

Rangers9 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 If Bosa available at 3 or someone they feel is a slam dunk as a starter or even Pro Bowl player make the pick. If not trade down (if you get a deal) and take two O-linemen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had an extra first and third rounder after trading Cooks. That helps a lot. But they also burned a 2nd rounder the following year to get the 3rd rounder they used on Anazalone. The draft had nothing to do with trading down. It was simply a bunch of picks that panned out very well. But saying "let's trade down and pick like the 2017 Saints" like it's an obvious strategy is sort of silly, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick a fork in him. Yes trading the pick would be good but if its out of the top 10 or even top 6 I'm not too excited about it. Unless they get blown away it might just be wise to take whatever guy falls. That's if Murray goes #!1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 If I had any confidence Maccagnan could make a good pick in the middle of the 1st and 2nd rounds, I'd be pushing trading down as hard as anyone. But he's not. The last time he picked in the middle of the 1st, we ended up with Darron Lee. And our BEST 2nd round draft choice in the Macc tenure was Marcus Maye. Yikes. The Saints could do what they did because they actually made smart draft choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. I want them to trade down.... provided they get a similar haul that the Colts got from us. That doesn't just happen because we want it to happen, we need the right player to fall to 3 and the right team that desperately wants to move up to get that player and is willing to overpay. If Murray goes 1 and a team trades up to 2 to get Haskins we are likely "stuck" taking Bosa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR24 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Im about as anti trade down as you can get but if I had to trade down there are really only 2 trades i’d move the pick for. I’d trade #3 for #6 and next years #1 (idt 6+17 are enough to miss out on Bosa/Allen) or i’d trade #3 and Lee for Von Miller and #10 and then take Jonah/Greedy/Metcalf at 10. I wouldn’t trade passed #10 either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think Bosa and Allen and Williams and the 2 QBs we don't need in this draft..each individually are worth #6 and #17? Even by the draft value chart that's getting 2550 for 2200. And for the record, while I'd do that trade straight up, I'd ask for a throw in 3rd or 4th next year at first offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take the sure thing at #3 and fill the void at edge that’s lasted a decade these top tier prospects are game changers (Bosa/Allen even Q)I don’t think #6 and #17 are enough to pass on that and I also have 0 faith in mac to select the right players later in the drafts.
