I could see Jacksonville moving from 1, they have a good pass rusher in Allen. They don't have to take Hutchinson or Thibodeaux and would get a lot of pieces to put around their franchise QB by moving out.
What I can't see is Detroit moving out of 2. They could definitely stand to upgrade at QB and if Willis or Pickett go at 1, they could take whoever falls at 2. That said, do they feel either is a sure-fire upgrade over Goff? If they don't, then why also would they pass on their absolute biggest need and outstanding talent in Hutchinson? Zero sense move for them, especially if they are dropping to the teens, essentially not guaranteeing themselves any pass rushers.
So if I expect Detroit won't move, that leaves Houston next on the docket. Houston seems married to Davis Mills, at least for now, but would they want to try to upgrade at QB too? It's the same damned situation as Detroit. Either you take the QB or you take an elite pass rusher in Thibodeaux. I can't see them wanting to move either.
The Jets are kind of the next team that maybe would and could move at 4. They need a CB, they need a pass rusher, and they could use a playmaker at WR. Having 10, 16, and 19 would be a solid bet to get all 3 but they'd probably have to swing a 3rd or 4th back to NO.
And then you have the conundrum for the Saints where what do they do at LT? Do they trust James Hurst to hold down the fort for what could be two seasons?
Intersting. Very intersting.
