Figure out a way to trade for Jamal Adams. If it takes a 1st, 4th, and one other pick either this year or next year (3rd or 4th comp pick next year perhaps), then so be it. The Chaisson kid from LSU is way too small to play RDE in the NFL - he got manhandled vs. high end college LTs and is NOT the guy to take at 17.
Best case scenario is Jeudy/Lamb/Ruggs are there at 17 and the Jets want to add to their WR core & are willing to move Jamal Adams.
If not - we need to move ahead of Atlanta to get Kinlaw or Henderson if they’re available (Atlanta has very similar needs as us & they’re a problem sitting 1 spot ahead of us).
If not - take McKinney and solidify the safety positions with HaHa and McKinney, they would be the best safety duo this team has had in quite some time, but I’d much rather have HaHa and Adams & I honestly don’t care what it takes.
truth said a first round pick is all i'd be willing to give up for Adams - a first rd pick and 16 million likelihood seems the max ... Steelers got playmaker Minka Fitzpatrick for a 1st rd pick only, and it paid off huge as he was instant play maker for them hitting the ground after a trade. i think Adams is more physical thumper whereas Minka maybe a better ball hawk vs pass especially when it comes to INTs. i would only draft a safety in 1st round, or trade a premium high pick and investments for a safety
if i think he is a legit blue chip caliber safety, but even with Adams theres' a certain limit to what i'd want to give up for him.
that first, 4th and future pick sounds too much like the package Jets were supposedly asking the sky for Adams.
- with Chaisson, i believe Cowboys will take the same approach and development with him as they did with a 237 pound Gregory coming out of Nebraska.
Cautious and calculating with reps and snaps, packages/rotations while he learns on the run, there is no need to start him right away as they may elect to
go with Crawford- Gregory- Aldon package to begin with. Chaisson is still raw in game experience, skill set and physical development. but he also flashes
big time athleticism, agility and bend and many think he will be a natural pass rusher in due time
i've seen where he's been compared to Alden Smith, but his tape and profile may put me in more thinking of our own randy gregory, but while everybody under the sun seems to be pegging Chaisson to the Cowboys in mock drafts., i think it's a good chance he could be well gone by our pick.
As raw as he is, a NFL team may be willing to nab him earlier than he is expected to go in 1st round.
