I mean I guess it would open you up to taking someone like Nolen at 8 and then Amos at 31. I love Revel and Morrison but they're risker than Amos, IMO. And you can't miss with that pick if you move McDuffie. Maybe you go with Hairston to try to get a little more ceiling with a little less floor than the other two guys.
Or hell, maybe you just take Warren there. I probably would at that point. I can't talk myself into Banks there if I moved McDuffie - giving up too much near term production for a guy who may not start next season (similar issue with Warren).
It might just be too much near term risk for me to get behind it. This window is closing -- I think we owe it to Kelce and Jones to continue efforts to maximize it.

A lot in play if you have #8. You might be looking at Jeanty. Certainly one of Warren or Loveland. Might have Golden sitting there. Offense is WIDE open, and honestly, that's where the value lies for me versus defense. I don't think many of the defensive players in this draft have true 1st round grades, and the ones that do don't fit our scheme that well.
If Warren is there, I don't think I could pass. That's a guy who continues your dominance at TE. Doesn't solve the LT problem. Hurts our defense but I'm confident in Veach finding adequate CB play.
