Trade up w Rams at 13

[visionary]

Every year some get focused on a particular player and by the time draft time approaches it's almost a desperate favored pitch. I think two years ago it was DeCastro.

Calm down and let the draft come to us.

DT is fairly deep this year, as is the draft overall.
It'd cost maybe a 3rd (with us getting back a 5th) or maybe a 4th and 5th. They could be real useful this year.

hold your water

my number one preference (even if donald is there at 16) would be to trade down to md 20s

the next team after us that is likely to take DT is SF

there is a good chance all these guys available at 16 are there at 23-24

Why isn't anyone considering this as an option for us to jump ahead of Chicago to get Donald?

They have a top 5 pick from Washington so they're gonna get a great early pick and it would most likely only cost us a 5th or 6th to move up 3 spots.

We don't have cap space for guys like Hatcher or Bennett but at least we get who we really want in the draft.

And we can always trade back in the 2nd to get a 5th round pick back.

Chicago signed DE Willie Young which makes me wonder if there is a chance that Houston plays the 3-tech.

I don't believe the Bears are going to draft an undersized DT. They might but I don't believe they will. If he's at 16, then I think he would be there down near the bottom of the 1st round as well. If he's there at 16, I would really like to trade down to the lower part of the 1st or very high in the second. JMO.
