I am against trading up for anything less than a blue chip LT. In this draft, two 1st's MIGHT get us into that mix. MIGHT. I'm not trading two 1st's for a maybe. We will find out in a month or so how Veach views it. |

I'm not necessarily saying I'd do it, I haven't a clue how they eval any of these LT"s. I'm just saying if they think getting to 12 gets them a guy that can be what they want at LT, do it. |

I don't see how aggressively pursuing the best option in free agency at one of your most glaring positions of need = being scared. For better or worse, that's been Veachs M.O. ever since he took over as GM.

I'd be shocked if the line they put together isn't significantly better than the one they ended the year with. |

Concerned that LT is a big issue? |

That was sarcasm because it’s essentially what OKchiefs is saying.

This team has holes right bc of horrible injuries and a complete failure of a 2018 draft. I don’t see the problem here. Last years rookie class brought us a TON of flexibility. I think with Spags the defensive personnel has upgraded significantly with value picks. Sneed, Fenton, Danna, Thornhill, Wharton. My God what a goddamn surplus. And that’s not even counting Gay, who (like Niang) I think can be a serviceable starter at worst. If you see a guy you think is a LT of the future, get him. Yes you’re out a first and third rd picks, but you literally have a ton of money coming free. We would be able to sign multiple blue chippers if we want next FA period and can effectively get money back from Clark at that point.

Frank Clark was an established as well as young player. If we were trading firsts for Orlando Brown, for example, that would be similarly palatable. You're talking about trading a future first for an unknown that isn't a QB. That's an extremely risky proposition. It doesn't often work out for a myriad of reasons and it almost never works out when your doing it for need instead of trying to grab a game changing player. And by the way, I find it ironic that you're saying we can just sign blue chippers next FA period. We have money RIGHT NOW and haven't hit on anybody but Joe Thuney, with you being one of the most vocal critics. So for some reason, this offseason is stacking up to be a failure but next offseason is going to be a magical buffet of blue chip free agents? Come on man, you're talking out of both sides of your mouth. |

Well I’d say definitely concerned about who’s going to protect their franchise investment

But senior executives in big corporations don't get to where they are operating on emotions like fear. And these are NFL people, the pinnacle of American sports. They most certainly don't operate on fear - in many cases, their egos don't even allow for fear. "Scared" was a poor choice of words. |

Uh? Wut? The idea of trading up for one of the elite LT prospects is having a much better chance at a game changing player. |
