Re: 2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

I'd be OK with any of these 3 scenarios but with some caveats:

1) We trade up to #1 but with a reasonable deal, not selling the house. Draft Williams @1. Trading for #2 would cost nigh on as much but for a worse risk:reward ratio so that's a no from me. Besides only way we get a trade partner for #1 or 2 is if the Bears or Patriots end up with the 3rd pick. Both highly likely to pick QB right now, and highly likely to be picks 1 & 2.
2) We stand pat at #3 or 4 and draft BPA; Harrison, Alt or Fashanu. Prefer this option, then draft a QB if right guy is there in 2nd or 3rd round.
3) Trade back and draft a QB bottom of 1st. Get a 1st round QB and still have ammo to fill our needs.

Course, this all hinges on a good GM. We need to hit on 80-90% of our picks else we're same again next year. Plus we'd lose more of the fan base.

Re: 2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

It is hard to see any new GM stake their career with a first bold move on sticking with Sam. The shitty thing is how decent Jacoby has played. Prior to the last two games I thought we could draft a QB in first and trade Sam for a day two pick but that ship has sailed IMO. No way we can get a 2nd or 3rd for him. The good news is tons of draft capital 80 mill to spend based on current estimates there is plenty of ammo to improve this team.

The other pros about this game is that cousin Eddie is still funny as fuck

No chance will a new GM / HC duo go into next season with Howell as the starter. Yes he should be on the roster and compete with a guy but with all the money and draft picks , we will see a new QB come in at some point

Maybe it is close in the SOS and that will fluctuate over the next 2 weeks.

This is a sweet spot. Lots of potential for a difference maker or a big haul in draft picks
