This is stupid.
If you assume he's talking about a scenario where Neal drops to about 10, it makes sense. He's a pretty clean fit at LG and obviously has potential to shift to LT in the future.

If we were picking in the top 10 he'd be one of my top choices.

Still too much. You're talking about giving away your second and third round picks to make that kind of a jump up (Still falls short on the value chart but let's assume this is a year you can get a bargain). It's just not doable. I agree that Neal would be awesome on the team but to stomach the trade up he would have to fall more than that. Otherwise you're basically sacrificing this draft for one player. We can't afford to do that when we do nothing in free agency. Or you sacrifice next years first which I am even more against.

I think he would need to fall in that 15-20 range to give us a shot to trade up. Which would be doable and not tank the whole draft and I just don't see that happening. I doubt Cross even falls into that range, him and Penning are more the O-lineman you might be able to pull off trading up for.

Yea but it sounds like they were just talking about who we should target in a theoretical trade-up, and I think Neal would be as good a target as any.

Oh yeah I'd love that dude on my team. But you might as well say Thibodeaux. That guy has about as good of a chance to fall in our range too. And he would be a special talent worth moving up for.

I don't think I'd trade up for any of the WRs but Jameson Williams might he my favorite WR. His playing speed is freaky. He doesn't just burn people, he flies past them and the more I watch the more I see a guy with special traits. He would be scary if he gets paired with a good NFL QB. I think he is a better route runner than he gets credit for too. This isn't just a straight line speed guy like some Alabama receivers we have seen.

The DCC says that Louis Riddick is an idiot.

Would you agree with that DCC?
You can't tell us what to think, and then ask us what we think.

Yes. The answer is yes.

I know his ACL and all. But you put Jameson Williams and Michael Gallup on the outside with Lamb in the slot and that becomes a pretty scary looking trio for defenses again. Williams has more speed than anyone we have had at WR in a very long time. And honestly I think Lamb is at his best in the slot. I think that trio becomes scary for defenses by the end of next season. If you can still build the O-line and run the ball as a result, you've got something in my opinion.

Of course that's a discussion to be had if Williams somehow falls to 24 which I don't see happening. NFL teams are going to be thinking the exact same thing that I am, which is if he didn't tear his ACL he is a top 10 talent for sure.

Guess we need to focus on DBs now.
