Who you taking with the first pick in the draft?
Im sure its someone from UNC.

I’d trade out to the highest bidder.
Unless there was a no brainer QB I think I would too.
I'm always happy for a good trade down and stocking picks personally. The NFL is all about being loaded with talent in thebfirst 5 years of a contract.

Yep, exactly. Obviously a sure fire franchise QB changes everything but beyond that I think we could probably ride Dak for the next few years if the roster is loaded.

I'm fine with waiting a year, and in fact I expect it.2027 will make more sense to do something like that more than likely. But never look a gift horse in the mouth if you think a QB is a stud.
If Dak stays healthy, I expect he'll get yet another massive contract.Me if we don't use these four first rounders to get a new QB...

Right now the best QB might he the kid from Indiana. Did anyone have that on their bingo card? I'll be watching him rip the Hawkeyes a new one tonight.
The guy who seems to be leading in the Dlineman group in the draft right now seems to be Bain out of Miami. But still lots of football left.

So like a Dart type?One of the things I'm saying is that unless the top QB is a no brainer, I'd rather take a QB later in the first with one of our four firsts. I'm not sure the bust rate is all that worse in the middle of the first for QBs. Obviously if there's an unquestionable franchise guy you take him, but teams get in trouble by taking a QB just to take one. I'd rather have the extra picks.

I'd be okay with that. I'd rather use the extra first to trade up to the top 10, 7, 5 whatever (depending on where our own pick is) to get a really top prospect, but if that's not possible a more developmental guy is fine. Just don't sell us on Dak going into his 12th year of going 2-5 in the playoffs and it's been eight years since he last won a playoff game.
One interesting point of conversation for me is what if we end up around 5-7 and Jordyn Tyson looks like one of the top guys available?
I'd be fine letting Pickens go, spending that money (20-30/year presumably) on the front 7 and taking a guy like Tyson who seems to be one of the best prospects in the draft.
That would require these bumpkins signing an external FA to a big deal, which is obviously about as likely as me becoming the GM of this God forsaken team.
We may not need to trade to get in the top 10 the way the defense is playing.

I'm down for about anything except another first round Olineman...
Hell usually I'm very against a safety high in the draft but the way Wilson has played, I'm not even against a dynamic safety.
