SI.com trade scenario

2 firsts for the next 2 years. Yes please.

It's so hypothetical it's not funny. Not sure why Detroit would want 7 that bad when they have 3 and want to trade down. That said, Detroit is likely mediocre and this would really help to secure Lawrence, Fields or Howell, whoever you want as the future. Again, this trade would definitely mean trading Cam and if that's the case, I could see this being a decent trade. It's a risk and I'd probably ask for the 2021 2nd or something more in 2022. That said, Detroit has picked 8 and 3 the last two years and they don't appear to be getting any better. Anyway, it's a made up scenario.

In this scenario Carolina trades its 2020 1st for Detroits 2021, 2022 1st and 2021 3rd. Is this something you can see happening?  Personally I'd rather get brown at 7 or trade back, but would like to stay in the top half of the 1st.

Trade is dumb.

We won't trade a thing until we see who is drafted in the six spots ahead of us. So many great prospects at positions of need, there'd be no chance we'd pass up on catching a steal if someone dropped through the cracks because of a run on QBs and WRs. 

Now, after those first six picks are there, we might look at the board and say we're open for business if somehow the best DT, Edge, LB and OT were already snatched up, but something tells me that we will see one of those that is supposed to go early still sitting there available at 7.

Terrible trade for us and it just feeds into the tanking rhetoric. Fail right off the bat from the conceptual stage. 

I agree, it really just seems like the media really thinks we are tanking hard.  I just don't see it personally

    • It amuses me how Goff's name the last few years is often used to compare to subpar or underperforming QB's. Now on the surface I get it. But when you look at his numbers he's been the same QB all along. He's improved his completion % but even with the Rams he averaged 63.4. And that Super Bowl he played in they should have won honestly. If we can get a QB as good as Goff I'll be pretty damn pleased.
    • And it remains to be seen if Goff has that ability or not. Plenty of very good QB's like Goff were not able to get over those playoff humps. Matt Ryan, Kirk Cousins, etc. You can still be an upper tier QB and never get over that hurdle. McVay just thought(and hasn't been wrong yet) Goff was never going to be that guy.
    • You literally simply have to think logically for either of those guys. Smith is locked up on a deal for 2025, so we would have to trade for him or he gets cut. Neither of those scenarios are likely in the first place.  Wilson will be 37 in 2025. Why on earth would he have any interest in a situation that is far worse than he was given in Denver and wasn't able to win there? He's a guy that can drop into any ready to win franchise in the NFL and immediately elevate their chances of winning(provided they already have QB issues).  Frankly, that is either speculation that even David Newton should be embarrassed by or it shows how disconnected with reality some people in our organization are.   I do agree with him on getting a veteran QB, however. That's our best chance to keep developing our talent.
