If they can manage to trade back and then trade the 1st rounder for an established WR, I take that to be paired with Bateman who seems he has a high glass quantity. But I'm also cool on going with what we have and not even picking a WR in this draft if all we have is 5 picks. But Hopkins is not worth a first rounder... Jeudy or the other Bronco might be in our desperate situation.
You don’t make these moves without signing Lamar first
I’m wondering at what point do they get serious about a Plan B.
Whatever it is, just wondering about the timing. How long do they wait.
This stupid article that says Ayiuk was called about last year and since then Deebo has been paid so maaaayyybeeee he'll be moved. Doubt it, but I guess we could call lol
You don't want to do nothing that major involving 2024 picks that's for sure. Signing Agholer was a cheap and sound investment. Basically just crossing TCC off the comp list and giving us a weapon that does have a shitload of talent.
Yep, this is what I was getting at by asking the other day, when do we just decide to just cut bait in this because it begins to derail future opportunity. No way should they go digging into next year's draft cache for something this year. That's why I feel like either using the #1 to get a bonafide WR that's here for this year and next, at a minimum, isn't a bad move. The remaining picks can be used to pick up other areas of need and maybe get an extra one or two by moving back if we can. But Lamar has to be resolved in short order.
It won't happen till after the draft. No way Lamar can make up his mind in 10 minutes while the Colts are on the clock lol after the Falcons leapfrog them to the 3rd pick. My prediction I see all 3 QB's gone with the 1st 3 picks.
It might be better that it does occur after the draft because next year's draft seems more stocked with what I've read. But I'm no draft expert, so that's only based on what others have said. Gaining 1st rounders in 2024 and 2025 might work out a little better for our long term benefit.
I don't see how that could work. WR for the Ravens is a 100% nailed on need. If they don't take one in the first, it should become almost a certainty that they take a WR at 86.* (and 124, preferably.)
The Colts are really taking a risk leaving the 3rd pick sitting out there like that.
The draft itself is little more than a crap shoot, but I'm happy with taking closer to a sure thing who's already shown they can play WR in the NFL than any pick we take, 1st round or not. We could pick WR with all 5 picks and we still are engaging in a bet. I don't like that bet. I do feel more comfortable with other groups like DL, OL, CB... Plus, you should know the Ravens are not a need drafter if it doesn't align with their value meter on draftees. They aren't gonna draft a WR just because in the first round. It has to be someone they have high on their board. If those are gone, the next best thing is trading back or just trading the pick for an established WR. I still think they are better off trading for a "proven" commodity than any draftee.
We can always find money for defense.
Arizona would be smart to wait until draft day. Anybody that wants to jump the Colts would have to give a bigger booty which could also up the Colts offer Now if the Colts offer in the 1st place is outstanding then.................but what QB's are they extremely high on.
