I'm not sure Veach is capable of trading back.

Everything they’ve done goes against their approach the last few years. I don’t think it’s about a change in philosophy as much as it’s an evolution going from a QB on a rookie deal to where we are now. |

In this deep draft class I can. Veach looked like a genius sitting back and plucking multiple gems who fell to them. Trading back allows even more opportunity to do just that. Looking forward to draft.

Look, you do what you gotta do to get over the hump and win a SB. If you gotta trade your #1 and take on a big contract or two, you do it-you've got a generational talent at QB on a rookie deal. Now everything is different. You're paying your QB, who's just entering what should be a long and fruitful prime. You need as much good, young, cheap talent as possible to keep the train rolling. It was pretty predictable; I thought we'd see the exodus start NEXT year, which would probably be a year too late, to be honest-but I expected Andy to be more sentimental about it. I'm pretty impressed, really. it's pretty baller to send Tyreek packing for that fat package of picks. Now this draft is super important. Nail it, and we'll own the AFC for half a decade. **** it up, and we're Seattle. |

The difference between the Seahawks and the Chiefs is a higher foundation though. Andy Reid + Mahomes vs Pete Carroll + Wilson.

Farrell is the lead guy for the Rivals network. If he’s getting that info, it’s coming from the college side of things, not pro, for sources. So probably what he is hearing from agents. He’s generally a decent source of info. Doesn’t make shit up.

I don’t get trading down unless we trade up. We’ve got 6 picks in the top 103 + 2 more in the 4th.
Maybe the thought is to trade down with one of your 1st rd picks to get ammo to move up from 50 or 62? I just want to make sure we can get as much talent as we can with the first 4 picks

The thing about trading down is, it would be really nice to have that 5th year option for 2 of our picks. Do we really want all of these guys coming off their rookie deals at the same time?

The logic follows with how Veach maneuvered the the made to provide additional mid round picks. Plus, body language. ![]() |

Better to have more swings in that span and then decide later who to keep and who didn’t work out. |
