    There are tons of threads with draft strategy out there so I thought I'd make one about what strategy we should take no part in. Whether its taking a certain player or trading down again, let me know what would piss you off the most.

    For me, the worst case scenario would be taking Tannehill at 4 and Kendall Wright at 22. Tannehill wouldn't make the team better for a year or two and Wright is too undersized to be an elite WR (his speed isn't great for his size). This would drive me nuts to do this.

      Ditto on tannehill. If we don't get him at 4, weeden at 22 makes no sense to me either.

        I think for me it would just me trading down heavy again in the draft. 3-4 spots may actually be really smart but the top ten guys are all fantastic this year. We can't have another year of that IMO

          Agreed. I think a trade down to 8 is the most I'd do. Plenty of play makers there (cough cough Michael Floyd cough)

            1. Taking ANY QB with our First Round Picks would piss me off.

            2. Trading out of top 15 would piss me off.

            3. Taking Kalil @ #4 would piss me off.

              Agree with all so far, but if they went "D" 2 of the 1st 3 picks, I would be pissed. Granted, we also have holes & needs on D, but we have virtually NO Offense, so that's what I want.

              I just have a feeling I'll be pleased with our picks. Andy, you're right, it's pretty hard to go wrong with the top 8. The only way I could see a trade way down is with the trade being TOTALLY out of balance (in our favor, of course).

                I wouldn't be pissed if they went D with 2 of the first 3 picks, but they better be impact players. Clairborn CB and Hightower LB then Hill at 37, I just don't think that will happen

                Tannehill at 4 or 22 would piss me off

                Weeden at 4, 22 or 37 will piss me off.

                Trading down out of the top 11 would piss me off

                I do expect a defensive player taken with our top 3 picks and offense taken with the other two.

                  selecting a qb period would piss me off.

                  having the FO influenced by fan pressure would piss me off.

                  not taking claiborn at 4 would piss me off.

                    taking kalil @ 4 would piss me off. I don't want tannehill at 4, but I could be proven wrong on picking him and he could turn out to be a stud. However, I do know that picking an offensive tackle is not going to score touchdowns for us. Therefore, no to kalil. Even if he is a stud, I would rather take a stop-gap RT and a playmaker at #4

                      any of these players before the 4th round would upset me, ok Blackmon and Wright prior to 2nd round.

                      Tannehill

                      Weeden

                      Blackmon

                      Wright

                      Adams

                      Hill

                      Chase

                        First and foremost - Tannehill

                        Otherwise other picks that would piss me off would be

                        4 - Claiborne

                        22 - Adams/Weedon

                        37 - Adams

                          Taking Tannehill early...

                          Too much moving around and not taking best talent...

                          Reaching for anyone....

                          Oh, and taking a weak, pot-smoking Mike Adams with second or third pick.

                            Not drafting Trent Richardson or Justin Blackmon would piss me off.

                            The worst scenario though would be Tannehill at 4 and a RT at 22. Another season of 0 offensive playmakers would be very fun to watch. I couldn't imagine. I'd cancel Sunday Ticket so I didn't have to watch that monstrosity every week.

                                  Three things that would piss me off:

                                  1- Taking someone besides Trich at 4.

                                  2- Trading down from the fourth pick(I'm okay with trading down @ 22).

                                  3- Selecting a QB before the 5th round is a wasted pick.

                                  As long as we take Richardson, they could really do anything with the rest of the draft and I'd be a happy man...

                                  Personally, I'd trade every pick and we've got to make sure we ended up with Trent Richardson, Justing Blackmon and the best Offensive RT in the Draft... I'd even set it up where I'd use the comp. picks to select whomever they wanted with them...

                                  Could we do that? Since we cannot trade those picks that were awarded to us, could we pick those guys for another team that wanted them then trade them to that team after they've signed with us?

                                        Most? Hard to choose between:

                                        • Taking a QB before the 5th Rnd.
                                        • Taking a WR between Blackmon/ Floyd and Rnd 3.
                                        • Taking a CB between Claiborne and Rnd 5.

                                        But if I had to choose one, it'd be the QB thing... unless of course Luck fell to #4... 😎

                                        Floyd at 8 wouldn't piss me off either... but the lower we went and still got him, the more I would be pleased...

                                        Also a trade down and then back up scenario is plausible in my mind.

                                        having the FO influenced by fan pressure would piss me off.

                                        not taking claiborn at 4 would piss me off.

                                        Thus setting a record for applying then decrying then applying fan pressure... 😁

                                          1. Taking ANY QB with our First Round Picks would piss me off.

                                          2. Trading out of top 15 would piss me off.

                                          3. Taking Kalil @ #4 would piss me off.

                                          ^^ This, and not taking a receiver with one of our first round picks.
