Double Barrel Trade Down offseason


Recommended Posts

The idea is the value in this draft is in the top 10 and in round 2-3. I didn't go for dollar figures in free agency or extensions, but I'm generally of the mind we won't be huge players, but definitely not bargain bin like last year. I don't think Joe D wants to build a team through free agency, but we have to improve the team. 

This is also assuming we don't trade for Watson, which I still prefer to all of this, and assuming that none of the QB prospects move the needle for us. 

And obviously there will be more fringe players re-signed and added via free agency. 

Re-Sign:

Marcus Maye S

Pat Elflein G

Free Agency: 

Kyle Juszczyk FB 49ers

Ahkello Witherspoon CB 49ers

Corey Linsley C Packers (allows us to move McGovern to G, which is his best position and upgrades two positions)

Derek Barnett DE Eagles (assuming he'll be cut when he turns down a team friendly extension to lower his $10 million salary next season)

  • Josh Sweat DE Eagles is a decent backup option considering he's a free agent and it's unlikely both return

Daniel Carlson K Raiders

Curtis Samuel WR Panthers

Jonnu Smith TE Titans

Draft:

(trade #2 for Carolinas #8, second rounder, third rounder and first next year)

(trade #23 for Giants second and third rounders)

8 (Panthers): Jaylen Waddle WR Alabama

34: Dillon Radunz OT ND State

40 (from Panthers): Ronnie Perkins DE Oklahoma

43 (from Giants): Jabril Cox LB LSU

66: Michael Carter RB UNC

72 (from Panthers): Paulson Adebo CB Stanford

75 (from Giants): Elijah Moore WR Ole Miss

86 (Seahawks via Prez): Benjamin St Juste CB Minnesota

106: Brady Christensen OT BYU

145: Marlon Williams WR UCF

154: James Empey C BYU

196: Jemar Jefferson RB Oregon State

 

***I could also see a situation wherein Ossai or a freakish edge player is taken on the trade down and someone like Rondale Moore of Purdue is taken at the Ronnie Perkins pick at the top of the second.*** 

All feedback welcome. Have at it.
