I almost expect Beane to do the same as I don't think he's just going to sit there and hope the CB prospect he likes will fall to him at 25. If Beane moves up to draft a corner he is a rank amateur and an idiot. No offense meant and as always, jmo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill from NYC Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 The Cards, at pick #23, select Kenyon Green - G - Texas A&M. Green might be able to play OT in a pinch, and is a good fit on a team that needs inside OL help. Green played and fared well against the best players in college football. I AM however surprised that there were no offers to trade down. @Just Joshin'is on the clock. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying a massive move for a Gardner or Stingley is likely (though I don't think it's a definite no), calling him an "idiot" to make a move up a few picks to guarantee he gets the guy he wants is ridiculous.

You’re operating under the assumption that the only position Beane values in rd 1 of this draft is corner. I don’t think that’s the case. We were “in on Gilmore up before he signed a couple days ago. If we signed Gilmore, would we still have been corner only if we had signed him? So now that we didn’t sign gilmore, are there any other free agents that can fill in for Tre until he returns? Joe Haden, Kyle Fuller, Janoris Jenkins, Xavier Rhodes, jason Verrett, Bryce Callahan, AJ Bouye, Kevin King can’t be that guy? All could possibly supplant Dane as cb2 when Tre returns. I find a flaw in your rational if you think we were truly in on Gilmore. Our "interest" was almost definitely just checking in on if we could get a bargain for him being available this late in FA. If he was truly someone we were interested in at the price range he were asking, we'd have been in on him early and would have been one of his visits. Any of these other guys you mentioned are band aids. They're either ancient, career journeyman, or guys who have underperformed in recent years. Fuller, for example, was benched last season for poor play. If the plan were to simply go veteran, they wouldn't have let the market dry up this much. It would have been addressed before now. I think we'll grab a guy later in the Offseason for a bargain. But that's just to provide some extra help with Tre down and depth. With what we're paying Tre, I think we're looking for an upgrade in talent from Levi long term at a cost controlled price. Only way to do that is to Draft a guy.

Yeah….our interest was certainly only limited to within our price range and obviously his price range was out of our range. That goes without saying. I never said we were going all in on him. We would have signed him if he had agreed to our offer…..which would have eliminated a cb in round one imo….and your rationale. Regarding the underlined…..the best way to do that is via the draft, I agree. But you’re insinuating that the only draft pick is our first pick. Tre is one of the highest paid corners. Taron is one of the highest paid slots. Poyer and Hyde are getting almost 10M. Meanwhile, under Beane, we’ve drafted one corner in 3 drafts and have been happy starting UDFAs and 7th round picks. Our 1st rd pick is our most valuable asset and paying all those DBs big bucks plus using our most valuable asset on another corner……I don’t see it. It makes sense looking at our holes, but I don’t think we’ll be trading up for one, which would likely cost us another 1st rd pick next year. maybe you’re right. I don’t like the scenario 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t like the scenario Sure, it will cost a 1st if you want Gardner or Stingley. But i'm more or less talking about moving up for Booth or McDuffie, if one is the guy Beane has targeted. About half of all mocks and more than half of the simulations I've done have them both gone a few picks before 25. It wouldn't cost a 1st to move up a handful of picks. I don't see Beane just sitting on his hands and hoping his guy falls to 25. And if we wait until Round 2 - there is most likely a large dropoff by the time 57 rolls around. We'd be lucky if McCreary were on the board. Elam and Gordon will be long gone. I personally feel that after watching the Playoffs, they decided they needed more talent than Levi on the other side. If we wait until Round 57 or 89, we could luck out. But with the hole we have and Tre being out, I don't see that as a wise move.

MrEpsYtown Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I agree with leaving McDuffie out. I think he would be the pick, but let’s say the Bills don’t like him…who knows? Its a great exercise. I’m with you @Virgil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
