Kiper: Trading for Jameson with Pitt

[kcbubb]

My strategy would be to trade up and get jameson or burks. I’d prefer jameson. I’m assuming olave is gone. Get an edge at 30 And get an edge rusher and dt in the 2nd.

For example;

18th pick jameson with 29, earlier 3rd and 4th and a 4th in 2023
Or
21st pick burks with 29 with the later 3rd and 4th

Moving up to 15 is a little rich. But I like the edge rushers in the 2nd better than I like wrs in the late first and 2nd. I would be ok with trading up to 15 if we could trade down from 30 and try to get back in the 2nd to take a de or a dt.

All of these edge guys are probably available in the second and yes a run may happen early in the 2nd. Ojabo and Sam Williams are my favorites but lots of guys here to take.

Boye Mafe
David Ojabo
Arnold Ebiketie
Logan Hall
Drake Jackson
Kingsley Enagbare
Cameron Thomas
Nik Bonitto
Myjai Sanders
Sam Williams

Here are your 2nd round or later wrs. WRs are tough to evaluate with a high percentage of busts or jags. This group mostly probably falls into that category. Either they won’t be able to get off the jam, create separation, run routes or their competition or numbers are limited, which increases their risk.

Jahan Dotson
Christian Watson
George Pickens
Skyy Moore
David Bell
John Metchie III
Jalen Tolbert
Wan'Dale Robinson
Alec Pierce
Calvin Austin III

Here’s your 2nd round or later DTs. I’d target perrion winfrey in the 2nd.

Travis Jones
Logan Hall
DeMarvin Leal
Perrion Winfrey
Phidarian Mathis

So, your 1st and 2nd rounds of the draft might look like this with the first trade and you still have the 3rd, 4th, 6th and 7ths.

18 jameson
30 ojabo
50 perrion winfrey
62 Sam Williams
