Still think this is this year we wait it out and take another chance at a 3rd/4th rounder hoping we find the next Dak/RW/cousins. If so, 2018 would be the year we trade up. The talent pool just isn't impressive like it was, this feels too much like 2013. If there's a trade up this year I would hope it's in round 2 for an impact player that can we can plug in to the system immediately such as RB or linebacker. |
If Watson, Trubisky, and Mahomes are all gone sooner than expected, then you might be right. I certainly don't like the idea of passing up on sure fire blue chip talent for Davis Webb or Deshone Kizer.
But, if they do decide to wait it out til round 3/4, they better make damn sure that they identify said QBs long term potential by the end of the season. If they don't have a true QBOTF identified by January, they almost HAVE to take one in next year's first round. Likely trading up while they are at it.
