I didn't think this one through all the way..

It would be awesome to see, and I know you were just being creative.

So to make it work the way you want, instead of #1 pick, you get #6, and then have Giants trade Murray to Cardinals for Barkley. Then the Browns have #6 and #17 for facilitating all the trades. All this happens in 10 minutes, Browns then trade #6 and #17 to 49ers for #2 pick, which gets them Bosa or Williams

Its original Haha

But makes no sense for any of the other teams. That leaves Giants with 2 QBs and no Barkley, and Cardinals with 2 RBs and no QB. You would have to expand upon it and say the Giants then trade Murray to Cardinals for Barkley lol

And at the end, you wouldn't have Baker and #1 pick. You used that #1 pick on Murray who you traded

It could happen ...they have Gettleman remember

@domcucch1994 said:

here's a scenario..

We trade Baker Mayfield to the Cardinals for the #1 overall pick, and Josh Rosen

We take Kyler Murray.

Murray then, gets traded to the Giants for Saquon Barkley, leaving us with Josh Rosen.

We then trade Saquon Barkley to the cardinals, for Baker Mayfield..

Leaving US with Baker, the #1 overall pick,  and the chosen rosen who we then trade to the NYG for our #17 pick back.

BOOM!

Why? Because we already made our first-round pick? Everything else is still there..

No first rounder and possibly still burned out by last year's draft. We went hard at that bad boy for three months straight.

I suspect that if there is a player within short reach in Rd 2, Dorsey may just use some draft capital to go get him if it appears someone else in front is interested. That does not cost near as much as jumping back into the first round from Mid-2nd.

Yep, that's what I think. He well may trade up if a player he covets drops far enough to where it doesn't cost too much.

If the Cards pass on Bosa,  I don't see why the 49ers would not take him.

Well without just using that old regime was horrible at selecting players, when there were guys like Aaron Donald in previous drafts who were more highly rated, why did they pass on them?

The answer is that it's not just about the best player available. Its about building the best team. And when they have already invested so much in that position (with good players), then it could become counterproductive to keep neglecting other areas of need.

Look at it this way, one example with the Browns and one without. Most everyone has Nelson ranked in top 3 available players last year, yet the Browns didn't draft him, why? Not that he wouldn't have made the team better, as he is already being talked about as the best G in the NFL. Its because they had other needs and already had invested a lot into the line. Or even use Bradley Chubb

Or why a team like San Diego/LA wasn't in serious discussion of taking Zeke the year after taking Ingram. I use that example for a reason. As there is a shared workload just like DL.

None of this is to say that SF wont take a DL, but certainly a reason why they wouldn't.

Actually the draft has me intrigued to see what Dorsey does without a front-end stacked deck. That gets into NE territory to find the true gems.

I think I might be suffering still from last year's draft leadup. We went at the draft HARD for like three months straight.

We know that, but do the Cardinals?

T- around a month to find the answer Gip. For a change I DON'T CARE!!!!!!

Agree with both and since he will go before we make our first pick anyway, no reason to care for a refreshing change. I only care who will be left that is in our list of wants within easy reach some time in the second and will we use a little trading capital to go get him.

@texasag1969 said:

I've been listening to the mock drafts on NFL network. So far no one has taken any of these over-valued QB's too early and Bosa always goes to the Cards. But if the GM listens to a fool coming out of the college ranks, that could all change. They also concluded that Murray's will be a short-lived career in football in their professional opinion.

The draft is deep at DL/Edge and they might get an offer they can't refuse. 

Sure a trade could happen.

Neither do I frankly. Especially since they'd gave him on a rookie contract for most of Fords contract. Tgat tandem. Could be as good as Myles and vernon
