True, although I think that (a huge trade) might be less likely after the draft, since we'd pay a time-delay premium to the partner for having to wait a full year until the '23 draft.

Unless they wanna take a rusher with the first pick this year they like better I guess.

K'Lavon Chaisson from the Jags would be an interesting trade. He hasn't lived up to his pick at all. Wonder if you could get him for cheap and try to bring out his potential. Our new DL coach would know all about him.

I think The Franchise is about right at $13-$14M.

I agree, and those picks will absolutely be burning a hole in their pocket over the next month

I'm not so sure about that. I think Veach has switched his approach. He has to know that his team doesn't really have that many players under contract moving forward and the time of loading up on vets to make a push are over.

Zig while everyone else zags.

I think we're in the midst of a full-on youth movement. Maybe they sing Jones or Key over the next couple of days but don't expect many moves before the draft at this point.

I thnk Shenault is probably a Chiefs sooner or later.

This. I don't blame Tyreek in the slightest. He had made $40 million prior to this contract with Miami. With the off-field junk he dealt with I'm guessing he didn't make tons off the field like other top flight WR may. This was his ONLY opportunity to truly cash in. In one more year he may not get this good of an offer.

Good for him. He probably made $5 mil more per year and saving 1.5 mil in state taxes. For a guy that's only made $40 mil in his life, $6.5 mil a year extra means something.

There’s a difference between standing pat and getting value with one of those guys and aggressively trading up.

We have multiple 3rd and 4th rd picks the next 2 years.

And no I wouldn’t take Ojabo without trading up even if we stay. I’ve tried taking myself into it but can’t. An Achilles is significantly more risk than ACL especially for a pass rusher.

I don’t even know if I would consider him at 50 tbh. An achillles is a brutal injury. Absolutely brutal

I was thinking the need for the $ to pay all these pick explains the Thuney restructure, but in the end, it all depends on whether the weaker franchises get into panic-mode over QB (Pickett, Corral?) or let Ojabo slide. This is a year to have about 4 backup scenarios and be more flexible than a Senator

It's not the 6-1" part. It's the 187 lbs. His build is slight, not much muscle tone. Stronger DB's will be able to re-route him and press him.

I'm not saying he can't have a successful career, but if we're talking #1 guy, i'd like that guy to be a bit heavier and stronger at both the LoS and at the point of attack.

Worked out great for the Titans with Jeffrey Simmons.

We’ll never be in a position to draft a top 15 talent at a valuable position like EDGE.

It’s a little risky, but no risk it no biscuit. I’m not scared to take a big swing.

Simmons tore his ACL. That’s not a ruptured Achilles

Not really anymore. Cam Akers came back in the same season he tore his Achilles

DeVonta Smith is 6' and 170lbs. He caught 64 balls for almost 1000 yards with a shit QB.

You're worrying about nothing.

Thought it was an Achilles. My fault.

I don’t get this idea that an Achilles is THAT much worse.

We just watched Cam Akers come back in 6 months. Eric Fisher is an OL in his 30s and came back very quickly. Was he himself? No, because he’s in his 30s and is an OL. How fast did DJ come back from an Achilles in his 30s?

It’s very likely that Ojabo will be back to 100% considering his age and the fact that he’s a freak athlete.

There’s a risk, but not at all what you’re making it out to be.
