Pittsburgh or Seattle would be two teams I think would have interest. 

I don't think Pittsburgh can afford it.  If they wanted our pick, we'd ask for their first and second this year and probably their first next year to make the trade.  Their pick value in R1 is very different than ours.

Seattle is a possibility if they have their eyes on somebody.  The could probably have our pick for their first and one of their seconds this year.  That might be something they would be willing to do depending on their level of commitment to the guy they want.

It's always seemed like by far our likeliest scenario. Our biggest need is QB and there's no consensus top 10 QB prospect in the draft. Fitterer loves trading down and trading in general. We lack a 2nd or 3rd round pick greatly hampering our roster building draft capital.

Trading down is almost certainly our preferred option.

    • Yep. Happens to a lot of talented kids. I just think a lot of people don't understand that just because this kid is super talented doesn't mean he's going to make it to the pros. Most of them won't. Some will get injured. Some will run into trouble off the court/field. Some won't put in the work. The catering greatly increases the odds of the latter two. Then most will simply just not be good enough to make it to the pros. Either way, it all adds up to a long shot and the kids need to have solid plan Bs. A few years back my HS had the #1 RB recruit on the nation. He originally committed to UGA but flipped to Bama and was getting decent playing time as a true freshman before obliterating his ankle. He was never the same again after that. Never made it to the pros. Not sure what happened to him but evidently he wasn't the brightest bulb and was basically just getting passed through school to stay academically eligible. I don't think he was a bad kid, never really heard anything like that. He just wasn't all that bright and all the eggs were in the football basket.
    • Our current hand is to pick up his fifth year option and then we have up to two more years to work on developing him and evaluating him. 
    • That's just our current hand, its unfortunate. No easy solution and damned if you, damned if you don't.  Signing each is less wrong... Just wait until BY is up for a contract..... horn and icky will be nothing and each is super nerve wrecking...
