Well … even the third round pick is more than he has given up for years … throw in the fourth and it still won’t get you there ….If you think he is giving up the second or next years picks… like I said ,,, I’ll believe it when I see it
After the Senior Bowl practices …
Mitchell from Toledo moving up from the bottom of the first… pretty obvious I know….
Tez Walker slipping out of the second ? …
I agree with you … but Beane is really going to have to earn his pay this draft … we are up to 2 WR, DE, DT and S all being year 1 draft contributors … plus some want Beane to make a move up in the first as well…
Might actually make some sense to trade down …
I’ll believe Beane giving up the draft assets to do this when I see it … I think the most he will give up is the third rounder which will get them up to 23-24
AJE’s time here had been mismanaged …
They stuffed him around early getting him to drop weight which didn’t suit him …
He was improved in 2022 and had his best time here the first half of 2023 … he then picked up that rib injury and disappeared…
I would like to keep him … however having said that …if he is looking for more than $5m a year then I’m going to struggle to give him that…
Rousseau had a disappointing year … I heard he played with a foot injury though… they need to make a decision on his 5th year option this off-season …
What happens with Morse is one of the more interesting decisions they have this offseason…
He has been great here ….. but I could really see them moving on…
Of course … I agree that it’s early days and things will change a lot …but I see them as a tool that shows what might be available in the mid rounds if the players expected to be drafted early come off the board …
Even then I wouldn’t look at the specific guy … but are there several players I like available at the position ?
For instance … Safety at Rounds 3-4 … couple of guys left there I think have some upside and we know that Babich and McDermott can coach safeties up… therefore unless one of the top 2 prospects is available at 60… Im all for looking for another position with their second round pick
Trying to “outwit” the algorithm by getting it to agree to unrealistic trades ain’t exactly my bag… but if people like that then all good 👍…
No…they have traded their fourth round pick the last two years …and it had moved them up two spots … so a pick that is literally the second last in the third is probably getting you four spots max..
