Per Jerry

I'm glad they made the pick but Lamb definitely did have a market.

Do you happen to know what or who the trade offers were/with?

 

[CATCH17]

I wonder what they were offered. Had to be a 2nd.

Jerry did not specify.

 

[big dog cowboy]

I hope the details get leaked.

 

[Sydla]

Love the Lamb pick but if a team got stupid I’d have made the move.

We're probably better off not knowing

Apparently it wasn't that good, but I agree with you...

I think from a talent perspective, the cowboys made the right choice to not trade down.

Drafted a dude with true #1 WR capabilities, whereas we could have probably gotten a late 2nd and 3rd round pick if we’d traded down which might have become two average starters. I’d take the high end talent of Lamb

Stephen and Jerry didn't seem that enthused about the offer, and ranked Lamb's potential over the offer.

Agree. It’s a passing league and Lamb is elite.

 

[Pabst]

No idea on the offers, but it's heavily reported that both Minnesota and Philadelphia were desperately trying to move up. No idea on the third team.

I like this perspective, too.

Not if he was 5 or 6 on your board.

That would defeat the whole purpose of having the board.

It tells you when he made good decisions.

Having so many QBs helped alot as well as teams needing OL.

That made our 1st rd work.

Totally.

Yeah it had to be a 2nd rounder to move back to make it worth it.

With him be 6th on their board, I would have need a 2021 1st and day 2 pick this year on to switch places in the first.

And I probably demand that day 2 be a 2nd

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I wonder what they were offered. Had to be a 2nd.

I think it depends on what teams wanted the pick. It was either a 2nd and a 3rd or a 1st and a 3rd I believe.

It's hard to see any team offering even half of the premium on from the 6th they considered him to a 17, and I didn't see a lot to excite me after him besides. I do want to hear about the offers, though.

 

[Kingofholland]

It was probably a 3rd and 4th at most based on draft trade chart unless it was at the bottom of the round. 49ers could have been in discussion too as they traded up 6 spots but didn't have draft capital to make a deal. Lamb was the last high end player on the board.

 

[Ebnorice]

Only offer I would of been interested in is Jamal Adams.
