Jetster Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 13 hours ago, IndianaJet said: Raiders, Colts, Bucs and Broncos....all right behind us and all should be in the market for a QB. This could be a really interesting draft if a guy like Herbert drops to us and there's competition for these four teams to jump up and grab him. I'm thinking this is exactly what's going to happen. If you look at the top 10 picks, you see Burrow & Tua gone. No way Miami passes on Tua, id be SHOCKED. That leaves Herbert & the team sitting in the drivers seat at 11 that doesn't need a QB & is perched in front of 4 teams who could use a QB. What team sitting behind us has one of the smartest Head Coaches & the dumbest QB? Tampa Bay. I could definitely see Tampa wanting Herbert. But right in front of Tampa is another team starving for a young QB with a GM that is truly under the gun in John Elway. Imagine getting a 2nd & another pick to move back just 1 space and still get the guy on Joe Ds board? This could be completely possible with us at 11. With two 2s & two 3s, Joey D could really make hay in this draft. I'm always pumped for the draft, but I think this draft will be the turning point we've needed with the right people in charge. This is our moment to compliment Darnold with a group of young playmakers. How long has it been since a draft lined up exactly with our needs? All those Olineman, a ton of WRs, Jeudy, Lamb, Higgins, Ruggs, Jefferson, and a lot more that round 2 with two picks could be a godsend for Darnold. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but I'll still be critical of Macc for not trading back last year (or any other year, for that matter). There reportedly WAS at least one team looking to move up to 3. Even if we had to accept 50-75 cents on the dollar for # 3, we should have pulled the trigger. We gave up three 2nds to get # 3 in 2018 but we couldn't recoup any of those 2nd rounders in a trade-down in 2019? Please. More often than not, there's ALWAYS a team looking to move up for the right price. These are NFL GM's we're talking about. Most of them are either experts on market economics or have people in their ear that are. And the draft is the ultimate commodity marketplace where everyone is on a level playing field; every pick has a tangible value that someone is willing to pay other picks for. Thus, ANY pick can get traded at any time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New York Mick Posted January 15, 2020 Author Share Posted January 15, 2020 For the poster thinking Denver would trade up to the Jets for the 11th pick for a QB. Trade value (which isn’t really worth a sh*t) has the points Jets - 11 = 1250 Den - 15 + 46 = 1050 + 440 = 1490 The Jets might need to throw a later pick in to balance it out but Denver would be going for a QB so that would increase the value of the Jets pick especially if another team was wanting to trade up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus, ANY pick can get traded at any time. I realize that my above post contradicts what I posted earlier, that in Mick's scenario no one would want to trade up to 11 with us. I'll amend that to say I do think that there would still be someone looking to trade up. But unlike last year, I don't think taking 75 cents on the dollar would be smart. We have other ways of acquiring picks. If we stick and pick, we at least have a pair of early 3rd rounders this season. In '19 we only had one 3rd rounder and no 2nd rounders. Plus the top of the board was all defense whereas the middle of the 1st round was where the offensive player value was to be found. Much different scenario.

Winfield is going to be a player in the NFL... I wouldn't hold what Red McCombs and his father did against his son. It was screwed up but it happens... They are different people. I think they need to keep Beachum and Niang to guard. Move Edoga inside and try to steal Conklin with an overpay contract from Tenn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did it a long time ago. '93 I think, we moved back from 3 to 4 so the Cards could take a Garrison Hearst and we still took the guy we wanted (Marvin Jones). Only that was before the trade chart so we just got a RB (Johnny Johnson) for the move. Still, it was a freebie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREENBEAN Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Obviously this is going to change a lot between now and the draft but it’s interesting to see who will be available for the Jets pick at 11. After running a bunch of mocks these are the top players available at 11. From that list who would you take? Hmm. That’s rough. I would want to grab Higgins or prince but in all honesty it might have to be Okudah there. Do not want Epenesa. At least not now.

GREENBEAN Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 After looking at what WRs are available in FA and what they’ve been signing for I wouldn’t care if Anderson signed for around $12 a year. From my perspective it’s a no brainer. Sign Robbie for up to$13 per. It won’t even be an issue in 2 years when the salary cap is $20 mil higher. . A good idea here is to Keep Robbie, draft Higgins( in this scenario) and call it a day at the WR spot until the later rds. 2nd and 3rd are all OL then.
