I think the biggest problem that we would face doing that would be how much of the future draft wise would we have to give up to get that 1 player... Now, if it's someone like Pitts, then I could make a case for that because that dude is a living mismatch and would fix our TE position and make our offense deadlier... NOW if you are going to do that, we would probably have to trade into the top 5-6 to do that... so that would take major draft capital to do that. He is the one exception. Anyone else, no, I don't think it's worth it UNLESS the capital to move up comes from this draft (or late round 2022 picks). The #30 pick is quite valuable. Whoever is drafted at this pick is cheap relative to the other 1st rounders AND you still get the 5th year option on the player. In your scenario, I would rather trade DOWN. Amass more draft capital, and extra 3rd or 4th this year, AND/OR get draft capital for next year(2nd or 3rd round pick). Like someone else said, the evaluations will be all over the place this year w/o the combine, so why not transition capital into a draft (2022) where we can evaluate more properly and have a better chance to actually hit on the pick.

Well, at least the pick wasn't a RB. Ossai... ugh... Texas players are SOOO overrated.

Now I know why Buffalo wasn't in on Clowney... 😆 8 MIL, up to 10 MIL w/ incentives... pass.

Trade our first round pick for a 2nd and 3rd round pick??? Dallas - #44 and #75 OR Steelers - #42 and #87 OR Giants - #55 and #58

buffalo trade down...

With Knox in the fold and we traded away our best blocking TE, I would rather get a great blocking TE rather than focusing on another pass catching TE. I know I'd rather find one that does both (we all do), but if we want our running game to perform better, the OLine will probably need some real help, ie. a great blocking TE. I'm sure there is a good blocking TE somewhere in the draft or unsigned draft pick. As long as the dude can roll out 2-3 times a game and catch the ball, then every other time he is in there he is making a difference blocking for our RB's (or Josh), then I think he is more valuable than Njoku.

I always overvalue our players. I guess if we could move our 3rd and singletary to get an early/mid 2nd round, that is probably a good trade. Buffalo's #93 pick is worth 128 pts. Lets say Arizona traded their 2nd round to us #49, it's worth 410. Diff is 282. 282 points is roughly equivalent to the bottom 2nd round pick, #62. So I guess that would mean that Singletary is equiv to a 2nd round pick in that scenario. I just don't see Beane trading away Singletary unless he gets at least a 3rd round pick, which is where he was drafted.

IF we could trade Singletary and like a 6th round pick for a 2nd round pick, I think that would work. We could draft or sign another RB to cover that spot.

Between other FA TE's and getting Ertz, I'd have to give up almost nothing to get Njoku.

Ugh, after looking on sportrac and seeing his stats, let's pass and save that 'spot' for a WR draft pick or undrafted FA.

Well, that's the thing about Star's position, you can't just teach big/fatty... you gotta be a big/fatty! Let's draft the biggest mountain of a man to help provide depth at this position. IF that is what this D was missing last year, a new big/fatty could do wonders for this defense.

For both Darnold and Wentz (throwing him in here), their new team needs to rebuild them psychologically. Both have been traumatized by their previous teams. IF they can be mentally repaired, both that the physical characteristics to be a good QB in the NFL. Jets got hosed on this trade, IMO.

No RB, Punter, Kicker, QB, or Safety. I’d be ok with LB, OT, G, WR, DT. Want: CB, DE if we pick. Really want: Trade down

I agree, the 3rd is too early for Hubbard. I think we will have to trade back into the 4th round to get him. I think the first 3 picks can be used for better positions than RB. I doubt he would last into the 5th round... but you never know w/ RBs they slip down the board sometimes.

If Farley drops, I'd like to pick him up. A BIG fatty at the 1 Tech to replace star after this year. Chubba Hubbard at RB in later rounds. The dude can fly. Need to add a new RB stud to the corral every year.

Phillips shores up the DE spot and then a big fattie to take star's place after next year? I like this alot.

@Virgil Thank you for taking your time and doing these mock drafts. I always enjoy watching/reading them.

could we add Quinn Meinerz OG also?

Teven Jenkins was already drafted in 1st round. Alijah Vera-Tucker was also drafted.

Can either of those DT's replace Star? Are they big space eaters? Thx

A Josh Allen gofundme salary reduction! I like it!

Ok, I tried to run the numbers on each of the trades, as per the attachment below (using the year/round less theory). Trade value chart: https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart.asp To me, Miami did not get the better of each of those deals if you run it by the numbers... For the SF/Mia trade, by the numbers, SF's compensation for the #3 pick never reaches the 2200 needed. Also, Miami did not get any additional compensation KNOWING this is for a QB, which is a premium position. THEN, trading back up to 6, again they don't win by the numbers... Overall, they move from 3 to 6 and pickup only 1 additional first rounder. By the numbers, this does not look like great trade(s). Now, from a non numbers perspective, they trade with SF was a great trade IMO. You picked up 2 additional #1s. THEN you trade 1 to philly just to go up 6 spots... Not a good trade IMO, especially as someone else said, they didn't need to make that trade right now. They could have waited until the draft or close to it to move up... BTW, with the year/round theory, I would gladly trade my 2nd round pick every year for a 1st in the next year (since they are equivalent).... DO you think any other GM would be willing to do that for us???

Couple of more bargain signing and we are gonna trade all our picks for philly #1 and we take Pitts...
