Let's Make A Deal!

[slats]

Which door do you choose to build a championship roster: 

Door #1: Sewell or the QB of your choice. 

Door #2: The #5 pick, #37, and Cincinnati's #1 in 2022. 

Door #3: Pick #15, #47, a starting caliber player, SF's #1 & #2 in 2022, SF's #1 in 2023. 

[section314]

I’ll take Carrol Merril.?Some of you youngsters might not get this.

[jbt]

Door 2, take a WR at 5, then QB, rb, and online with next 3 picks 

[pdxgreen]

I'd rather take what's in the box.... It might be a boat!

[JustInFudge]

It's door 3 for me unless you're in love with Fields then it's Door 1.  There is still a lot of time between then and now, we still might see the best or worst of Fields in the playoffs which could alter this decision.  If you decide Fields isnt your guy, Door 3 and bring in a vet (Winston) to truly compete with Sam.  If it's Door 3, I also wouldnt be upset with Trask or Jones in RD2/3 because I really dont think there is any drop off from Lance/Wilson like there is after Lawrence/Fields.  

I've been messing around with this in the draft forum on the simulators. The haul we could get by trading down with San Fran is potentially roster changing in 1 offseason and setting yourself up to fill the rest in 2022.  Here's just an example (no QB, build around Sam, bring in Winston).  I could have done more trade downs but to keep it simple just stuck with the San Fran trade.

I went with Door #2, adding two valuable picks and still being in the QB game at #5. 

Door #3 is intriguing, though. The idea of SF trading up for a bust QB would make those next two years worth of picks an amazing haul. Picking in the late 20s or later wouldn't have quite the luster, lol. Still, this is the one that gives them three #1's in 2022, and two in 2023, giving them a ton of ammo to trade up for a QB in 2022 if they chose to pass this year. 

Don't know how anyone can look at that and think the OT at #2 is the best way to improve the team. I understand it if you go QB, but you really need to be right on the QB.

I closed this poll in a week because things will change a lot in the next weeks and months. 

If they opt to pass on a QB this year, Winston is the guy I look to bring in, too. Sam has lost his confidence, but I don't think Winston knows how to do that. If Darnold is ever going to have any success in this league, anywhere, he needs to get that gunslinger mentality back without trying to win the game all at once on every play.

I picked door #1. Take Sewell and have a monster o line. I have a hunch though that JD is going to trade out. It’s his nature to hoard picks.

I honestly believe that there's about a 0% chance that JD takes Sewell at #2, and that's about what the chances should be. 

[predator_05]

Door 3 is tempting, but those future picks could lie outside the top 15. SF is a playoff calibre team coming off a bad year. 

[Augustiniak]

I think the jets may be able to have their cake and eat it too.  They could potentially trade back to 4 or 5, get extra picks and still get a qb they like.  And i think that selling this trade back scenario to other teams means they’re going to have to market and probably trade darnold before the draft so teams know they’re serious about taking one.  

Atlanta, Carolina and Denver will be in the qb trade up market.  Don’t count out elway, he still hasn’t found his guy and i imagine he’ll be itching to trade up.  So yeah, i think douglas will be able to trade back, and at this point i think he would do it rather than take a qb at 2, unless he absolutely loves Wilson or fields.  

Today, I’m predicting that he trades back to 4 or 5, and takes the risk that he can still get a qb.  I doubt any new hc will want to keep Sam to groom.

[SR24]

Door #1 restart the QB cycle and give me Wilson 

[QB1]

Only way I’m not taking #2 is if JD and the new coach love a QB at 2. Passing on that cinci deal for Sewell would be nuts.

I'd like to come away with Sewell and G Trey Smith in this draft. Trey next to Becton would be beastly.

[Obrien2Toon]

Both trades look great

but if JD has Fields as a future franchise qb, just stand pat and take him

You OL guys can be a little extreme. Really think this is a worst case scenario that will never play out. JD will make one big FA splash on the line (Thuney?) and then he'll have at least 4 or 5 more picks in the top 100 to fill out the OL without spending the #2 on one. Trading down, obviously, would give him even more options.

DeVonta Smith just won AP college football player of the year. Seriously doubt he drops to 15 now.. But like this draft anyways.

Love that draft GOOD WORK....  I especially like it if the 1st 3 picks work out that way for this team...

This poll sucks. There should be nothing behind any of those doors except a trip to Tahiti so we can all get the hell out of here before the pain starts.

I'll take door #1. I think it's unlikely another team blows Joe Douglas away with an offer he cannot refuse. Those draft simulators are fun, but aren't realistic. With the cap going down next season those draft choices are twice as valuable in 2021. 

[Ben Had]

I don't see any teams wanting to trade up in the top 10 this year. More than 3/4 are in cap hell...

Jets will be in the opposite of cap hell, and could take an expensive contract off another team's hands as part of a package of picks. 

[UntouchableCrew]

At the end of the day I think it really comes down to how you feel about the QBs. 

I'm ready to move on from Sam, and if you really like Fields I think you just pull the trigger at 2. Possibly the same for Wilson, although I think there's a possibility you could get him at 5 which makes the 2nd option appealing. I'd probably go with Door 1.

That said, Door 2 is pretty damn appealing, especially given that is is entirely possible the Bengals 2022 first rounder is a top ten pick.

I don't see the 9ers giving up that kind of draft capital.

Really just wanted to illustrate no trade, small move, larger move, and get people's thoughts. I expect there to be a very strong market for the pick. These options are just rough equivalents using the draft pick trade chart. We all know that if someone's in love with a QB that these packages could be much larger when all is said and done. 

[More Cowbell]

#2 you still pro ably can pick Fields or Wilson, at worst Lance if you still want a QB or find another trade down partner that wants them

[Stark]

I accidentally clicked DOOR 1. I would take  3

[Waka Flocka Flacco]

Door #1

Door #having a quarterback isn't important at all so let's continue to treat it like a big joke because that's been working great

Right, I get it.

The #2 pick has tremendous value -- whatever we do with it should be a franchise altering decision.

Decision would really be much easier if Darnold didn't stink.

[JetsFan1986]

Door number 2 or 3.  We would have a great opportunity to build this team.  We could roll with Sam one more year and if that doesn’t work out we simply move on to a new QB and have plenty of assets as well
