YoloinOhio Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 According to this, he was their pick, instead of Derwin James, if he was there... and Beane traded up one spot ahead of them 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I know Beane dislikes leaks I cannot seem him not using information if he had it hence reason giving up two picks to Tampa. Looked but not see any obvious connections to Chargers staff but possibly Bucs said something to him he believed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting... so you’re saying Beane not only traded the picks for their first rounder, but for also inside info on other teams wants? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roundybout Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I know that Beane knew that Giants were not taking a QB, and Browns were taking Mayfield. Not sure about Chargers but it makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s all I can think of with connections with this regime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Idk. Could just be GMs thinking the same thing. A top ten prospect was still on the board ; that jumps out at you when you're picking in the teens. Probably just really good timing because he wasn't going to be there long.

They know every team's needs going in so they can jump in front of anyone looking for the same player. IIRC we jumped ahead of Carolina last year to draft Jones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Makes you wonder how much overall is known as to who likely will be picked by another team. Maybe not always correct, but do teams know say 75% of the time who another team is likely going to select?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artmalibu Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I dont think it took a leak for them to trade up. Many have Edmunds going in the top 10. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Love that article though. Really cool,to hear the play by play and who teams "almost" selected for real instead of rumored. Cool article. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is only one person in the country smart enough to be playing multi-demonsional chess and Beane is not him...
