I wonder if next year's 3rd could come into play tomorrow since we'll be getting the Josh comp pick.

Our 2nd and 4th to jump up....then our 3rd and next year's 3rd to get back into the 2nd maybe?

Two 2nd rounders excites me, just don't know how viable it is. 

lol our 4th to jump up what 2 spots? its gonna take a 3rd just to jump up 10-15  spots.

Positions that are thin would be WR, OT, and CB.  Look for folks to move up at the top of the second for anyone left, like say an Alexander CB, Sprggs, OT.

This moves DE's and DT's on down

Remember, our offense was the highest scoring in the league, so no huge need for either Henry, not even sure Shepard could get on the field at this point, so no need to move up for them.  If they are there at the end of the second, then who knows

If we move up, I could see Dodd/Ogbah because we probably had Butler rated around 20th best player, might have had Dodd/Ogbah at 28 or so.  This would be like Ealy, having a 1st round grade and a good reason to move up in the second

    • Carter, Graham, and Hunter for me. Other than that I'm listening to offers. Hell, I'm listening to offers anyway. I'm not doing the Gettleman thing of submitting the pick immediately. If the phones are ringing there's no cost to listening. Maybe someone has an offer so good that I can't refuse.
    • These numbers do not measure a player's prime. Do these numbers include OL pulled up from the practice squad for a game or two then cut?  Do they include players who might have been injured or cut for reasons other than they were past their primes?  The average career for an NFL lineman is 3.63 years, and that is because there is a lot of turnover--regardless of a player's prime. In fact, if only 55% of Offensive linemen drafted in the first round succeed, then the failure rates of most offensive linemen drafted and undrafted would be much lower, cause them to skew the average age of the OL.  This suggests that most players' retirement from the NFL is not based on their prime, but other factors.  They are cut, released, injured--and that is based on their level of play compared to others, not their levels of play within their personal skill range--something that peaks during your prime. In this case, I was talking about Moton, an elite offensive tackle, one that avoided the factors that shorten careers unrelated to their primes. I identify Moton as the team's best offensive lineman on an impressive OL--that distinguishes the type of player being referenced, so I did not provide a lot of qualifiers--as you didn't with your stats.   In this article below, one that evaluates established Offensive tackles, it states the following, which supports my comment:  "Most elite offensive tackles start to decline at roughly the age of 32 if they haven’t already."  So to say that Moton was at the end of his prime was not a reach or careless speculation.  If a player has the skill to be competitive and they can avoid injuries, their career expectancy is much higher than an average of all offensive lineman on a fluid roster. https://www.milehighreport.com/2017/2/27/14724674/age-wall-for-offensive-tackles-nfl  
    • If there’s not much difference in moving back a couple spots, finding a good offer might be an issue.
