No, we would slightly win the point value, but that goes out the window when QB's are involved.

If we are trading out of that pick, I want it to be for a QB needy team, and they are going to have to overpay, not be a wash.

Don't care about Freeman.

Denver’s 2nd round pick would be 46, Dallas owns a pick 51.

Even if it was the 46th I’d say no. You don’t ever want to be drafting top 10, but when you do, it’s a rare territory to get as close to a sure thing as possible.  As for adding the extra picks, the success rate of players taken that low nose dives soo much that I don’t think it’s a fair return.

So my answer is no I wouldn’t.

Add the why. 

because at 7 we are very likely to end up with a top-tier talent in Okudah, Simmons, or Brown. 

15 is too dangerous. Very real chance the 3 of them are gone in addition to the top four OT prospects and Kinlaw.

If we have the guy we want at #7 we should stay. I have done mocks where we trade down in the 2nd to acquire more picks.  Why?  The second round is loaded, especially with players at need positions for us.  Same goes with the 3rd.  I understand the need to accumulate more picks, but I don't think the 1st round is the correct round to do it unless the draft board goes awry for us.

Trade down with Denver to 15, they get 7, you get, 51, 95, and another 3rd next year, plus Royce Freeman? 

In a heartbeat. A first, second, and two thirds? That's good return for a top player in the league, and we don't even know what the guy we'd take at 7 is going to be yet.

You don't, "we" as in the people who make those decisions do, and have prepared for almost every possible scenario that could/would happen in front of us.

Well, the Panthers may not be doing that as we have a fool at the helm, but most teams are.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
