Trade our 2018 1st for help now?

[Redball Express]

Well..

I know nobody initially wants to do this..

But if 2016 was any indication..

We are going to finish at the bottom of the draft with another good season in 2017.

Which makes me think that draft choice is going to be nearly a 2nd Rd pick in effect like this year's.

With all the defensive talent available and us losing so much in FA..

I value our 2017 first pick to be expendable.

Should we use it to move back into the 1st Rd. and grab a player now ?

We have so many needs right now and need to win now and the Kings, Iggles and Commanders have definitely improved in the offseason..especially at WR.

We need a CB, S and DL..all starters.

I do not see getting all those guys this season without moving up?

Feedback?

 

[CATCH17]

Nah...

Smarter move would to actually be players in free agency.

Well if anything the 2016 draft show you can find great talent throughout the draft (rounds 1-7) and not just the first round. My answer would be no. Let the FO shop for their groceries as they normally do.

trade next year's 1 only for a difference maker

I think we're likely to get a higher pick next year than we will in 2017. I believe we might not have as many wins next year as this one. Let's face it, our schedule should be somewhat tougher this year than next. We'd also be bummed in 2018 by not having our #1 pick if we spent it prematurely. If next year's rookie crop turns out to be exceptional, we'd be sorry. I prefer saving my picks, just like I do my money. Tomorrow always comes, right on time.

 

[Deep_Freeze]

Depends on the guy we're drafting.

If its Garrett, then its worth considering. Otherwise, probably not worth it.

So no premature picking?

Like Maliek Hooker, he would be worth it.

 

[TheCount]

I'm not opposed to it, but it'd have to be for a really worthwhile player.

Nope -- not with your race horses, your nose, your seat, your friends, your women, nor your draft picks!

i agree with this, but unfortunately it's going to take a hell of a lot more than 2018 1st to move up to get him

Who is also under a cheap contract for a few years. No one year rentals.

Actually today on a sports radio out here in Northern Ca they were talking about the Niners trading back into the 1st rd and the likely trading partner would be the Cowboys. They asked what it would take and most said 2nd, 3rd, and 5th. One guy even mentioned, you might throw in next yr 1st due to the Cowboys would be losing that 5th yr option they would get with this yr 1st. Depending on who is on the board at the time I would do that trade especially if they are going to throw in next yr 1st. I don't think the Niners would do it but the fans are restless out here.

Lol....good one Catch!

Wait what??? Expendable?

 

[aria]

This draft is way to deep in defense to be trading away our pick to move up, that would be insane IMO. For our needs, we got lucky as hell, it's almost as this draft was meant for us. It's hard to imagine a better situation as far as a draft class and our defense.

 

[Deep_Freeze]

Yeah, thats why I've said I would consider it if the opportunity presented itself. It won't happen, but we can dream I guess.

Rather give up alot than end up with another ordinary DE, it will be easier to get a DB at #28.

 

[Direwolf63]

Don't over think this. Stay where you are. Stick to your draft board. Grab the top rated guy on your board unless it's a QB, RB or O-Lineman. If it's one of those 3, draft the guy below him.

Rinse, repeat in the following rounds. Consider QB, RB or o-lineman starting in round 4 if he's at the top of your list. Not before.

 

[cowboy_ron]

I think he had to mean 2018 to remotely make any sense.

like the Jaguars!
