Quinnen Williams trade might have been a mistake

[lk8701]

They could've drafted Josiah Trotter with the 2nd round pick. The Packers this year might end up being a top 10 pick and the draft is stacked. 2 Foundational Pieces on rookie contracts is a better deal than Quinnen on a huge contract.

The team regards itself as being in win-now mode - whether any of us agree with that or not. They were always going to trade one of those two first round picks.

There were far worse players they could have done it for.

 

[Tabascocat]

Why? Because he doesn’t have 20 sacks already? Q is fine……

 

[erod]

Lol

 

[TheCoolFan]

I'm more of a Gervon Dexter fan. Younger, bigger, better contract (that he just got with the Falcons). That was a great trade and extension by them

Success in the middle goes hand in hand with the ends. This line will come together if the ends can continue to improve.

Didn't look good last year isn't looking good this year, got paid because of his name

I’m convinced some of yall just don’t like having good players.

We do so well drafting DTs

 

[CT Dal Fan]

To me Quinnen Williams has been getting better every week in this scheme. He's going to be just fine.

Think about what the DT room would look like if they hadn't done this trade.

 

[Creeper]

The only mistake with the Q Williams trade is it should have been done two years sooner when Parsons was still playing for the Cowboys.

 

[AKATheRake]

A pick in a future draft is worth a round less.

Although we should have made the Micah trade sooner since we did it we got good value for QW. It's basically a 2nd and a 2nd.. we got home for half a season before the draft too.

He's fine, the defense is going to start creating an identity as they play together more. If we don't start seeing signs game to game and we don't start stacking wins it tells all. Both sides of the ball have talent. If this team can't start winning and improving than it's the coaching staff and obviously the FO that hires the HC.. The FO that won't hire a real GM.

Get spammed by poor takes from unknowledgable fans like coogiligoogli who are just looking for attention definitely doesnt help

I wanna know where all the people saying the packers were gonna have a terrible pick because they predicted the future!?

 

[thunderpimp91]

The real mistake is not picking a lane and constantly building half a team. If you want a player like Q I’m all for it but then not adding a known quantity at edge this offseason was a miss, as they went the budget friendly route once again.

Appears we don’t do so well trading for them either

 

[cowboyec]

he's the best dt we've had in a decade.
i'm more concerned about the other pieces around him....and our new def coord.

It’s not looking great at this point.
For the draft capital and salary we gave up , you should have gotten a difference maker.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

It’s early to say this but these thoughts have crossed my mind. I really wish they didn’t have to give up the higher pick of the two. That’s my only minor regret.

But I preach the trenches and I’ll never say they shouldn’t have traded for a solid defensive tackle.

If that pick ends up being top 10 it’s gonna look bad.

But props to the Jets. They for sure stole from the Colts for Sauce.
