Trade up for Chase Young???
Last year, what kind of offer would a team have needed to where you would have been okay with trading out of the Top 10?
Not too sure about last year to be honest. So much was different then... from expectation of the team, uncertainty of pieces needed to end up with a well rounded and deep team, to how long would it take for the team to develop into a contender. Then bam, everything clicked and the team surpassed all expectation, the team did actually have enough depth which eventually developed, and in turn gave us an awesome year. So last year I would of been good with just taking Bosa at #2, but I was not opposed to trading down to gain more depth via additional picks. As for compensation I am not too sure what I would give up to move to #2 to draft a Bosa...
As for this scenario, I would probably start off in the realm:
- Hope that Miami or the Chargers trades up to draft Tua at #2.
- Then try and trade #13, #31, 2021 1st, and Dee Ford FOR Lions #3 and their #35 (2nd rounder)
- Use the 2nd Rounder to trade down and accumulate more picks for this year since draft is so deep
