WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I will say that the Phins GM at least is looking strangely competent. Not only do they get a bevy of picks, but they effectively moved back up to six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you a Dolphins fan, cause I don't know many non-dolphins fans who would say either of those things. Been a Bills fan for about 35 years now. Wilikens has a grade of almost 70 from pff. He's a pretty good player, and still young. As for Tua, I'd be fine with him as he's only started 6-7 games and is coming off a pretty serious injury. From what I've seen of him at college and here with the Dolphins, there's definitely something there to work with, which is all you want to see from a Rookie. I still think he's got Jared Goff potential. I'm not GUARANTEEING that the Dolphins are a future Juggernaught...just that they have a pathway there Edited March 26, 2021 by appoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that they got the Niners 2022 and 23 1st round picks, along with a third to move from 3 to 12. Then the Dolphins trade one of their two 2022 picks to move to 6. So right now, the way I see it, they moved back three spaces for a 2023 1st rounder, and a third round pick. If there isn't a QB that you love, that seems very worthwhile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only do they get a bevy of picks, but they effectively moved back up to six. I wasn't a big fan of the 1st round picks he made in 2020. Didn't love Tua, jackson or Igbinoghene. Tunsil and minkah for jackson and Igbinoghene (they do obviously have the other pick from the tunsil trade which is more valuable than both). But those are major downgrades at important positions. But he also has made some smart moves - did the tear down post tannehill. Found some good foundational pieces, and maximized trade value for players. But 2 of the probably best 3 players he drafted, he traded. Just now, WhitewalkerInPhilly said: Am I misreading?

Greg S Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Adam Schefter on Twitter: "49ers have been attempting to move into top five picks for several weeks now, per sources. They discussed trading up with Dolphins at 3, Falcons at 4, Bengals at 5 and ultimately decided to go as high as they could, per sources. There were no trade-up talks with the Jets at 2." / Twitter Don't know if this was posted but SF never had talks with the Jets for the #2 pick. Seems the Jets are set on taking a QB most likely Wilson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there isn't a QB that you love, that seems very worthwhile A 2023 1st rounder is generally considered a 3rd rounder this year if you discount a round for every year out. And you usually judge a trade by similar deals in the past. Indy got two current year 2nd rounders and a next years 2nd rounder which you’d discount to a 3rd rounder.

The Jets may be stupid enough to pass on Wilson. Edited March 26, 2021 by turftoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsCuse Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I don't understand the trade up from 12 to 6 this early at all, especially this early. They don't know who will be there and giving up an extra 1st to do it for a non-QB is overpaying in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly hope that is the case and not Miami buying Watson while his stock is at its lowest I would rather Miami just take stabs at other positions with those picks....I am not wishing for Watson to be in the AFC East Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
