Whats the odds we trade down in the first to regain a second.

What if one of the star WRs (my top 4 are Chase, Smith, Waddle, and Ross) or QBs (Fields/Wilson, Mac Jones, Trey Lance) drops to 14. There is a good chance one or more of these guys will be there. I think they are all better / more valuable than any O lineman not named Sewell. If we see our QBOTF, you have to take him regardless of how you feel about Cousins. If not, they may be worth a lot more to some other team and present an opportunity to trade back. Say Miami takes Sewell at 3 and wants one of the top WRs. They have a second 1st round pick not too far behind us.
Man, I'm no draftnik, but I'm not sure I'd put Mac Jones that high.
It is tough with QBs. Someone may love him. Smart, reads coverages pretty quickly, accurate long ball. Just saying there could very well be some potential game changers where we pick. Could be a good opportunity.

I'll second Nixon. I haven't seen a single snap of Rousseau, but he played all up and down the Canes' line. Paye could kick inside. Tufele.
OL, there's really several. Davis, Darrisaw, and Slater are current favorites.
No one in the S class currently looks like a first let alone that high.
Thank the lord for that!!

WR would be a tough sell. QB yes please.
But if they don't go QB then yeah we clearly need any D-line help we can get and a Dozier replacement would be great too.
I think we go D Line first, especially if we really like an available DE. That is one we may not trade out of.

Christian Barmore is an interesting prospect too. Maybe not at 14, but if we trade back or so. The few times I've seen him he was always making plays in the backfield.
I really like Barmore too. It'd be nice if we could somehow trade into the 2nd round and snag him. Obviously that depends on a lot of variables, especially who we take in the first round
I like Dayvion better than Barmore. He seems quicker. More of a true 3T. We already (I hope) have Pierce. We are thin at 3T. That or DE is what I expect in the first.

I'm all for drafting a young gun...@ 14 Mac Jones might be a reach though.
I think its super tough to project these Bama QB's. They have an OL better than a lot of NFL units, stellar surround of RB/TE
s and their WR's are about as good as it gets - year after year after year.

Right and I think most people do too, but it will all depend on who is there at 14. Maybe one of these QB's is there that we want or maybe one of those top tier WR's is still there which allows us to negotiate a trade. There will be plenty of options
I think Barmore stays. He's done well in limited reps. Nicked up both years.

Daviyon Nixon
I'm going to be really curious how Nixon tests at the combine. I admittedly have not watched a lot of Iowa football this season. I know he was a JC transfer that didn't do much last year but tore it up this season: 5.5 sacks and 13.5 tfl in 6 games. Maybe the whole Jaleel Johnson thing has soured me on Iowa DT's, but I would want more of a sure thing at that position. Kiper has him at #10 on his bog board, McShay had him go at the 22nd pick in his recent mock draft, and GBN has him 18th on their board
What does it matter? RIck & Zim are going BPCB at 14 regardless
