I can see that, but I'd think that the Raiders would then need to jump on Penix right away given the same fear of losing him to someone else before they come up again.

The Raiders have Minshew. I’m sure they’d like a QB but they don’t HAVE to have one. The Broncos have Jack shit at the position.

Yep, all makes sense, but Minshew is a stopgap. Penix could almost certainly do with some "seasoning," so it would make a lot of sense to bring him in with the option of sitting him for a year.

I get so damn excited for every member mock when one gets posted. I don't think you are going to get a lot of push back on this one.

Just the simple fact that we jumped over the Bills again to get the better player

I don't think next year's 2nd will get us up that high and that's about as much as I'd be willing to deal on a trade-up scenario.
I am absolutely not giving up a 2 this year with the depth of this draft and I'd be reluctant to give up a 3. This year's 1st, next years 2nd and this year's 3rd looks like it should probably get us to about 18 in a vacuum but Cincy and Jax ain't gonna deal with us. So, how do we get that over the top to get to Seattle at 16? Man, I just don't see a path forward that doesn't include this year's 2. That's gonna be 32, 64 and next years 2 for 16 and maybe 118? We might have to include 173 to get that done. That's just too much. That turns this into a 1 player draft and I don't think Brian Thomas Jr is that kind of prospect. |

I would do this, if we could get Bowers, but not for Thomas.

I think the Bowers or Bust crowd are throwback fans. I can't wrap my head around wanting Bowers over Thomas at all. But I'm not sure he'd be at the top of my board if he fell all the way to 32. I'm just loudly anti TE in the first round. I don't think we need to drop those kind of assets on the position to get excellent production from it. That's a competitive advantage we have that I don't want to surrender. |
