Which is why a team that lacks star talent like us should have traded up for the higher upside Dallas Turner.
A 3rd (or more) from us this year and 4th next year would have trumped the Vikings offer imo. Oh well.
This franchise needs more 2nd contract players. If Robinson becomes that then its...
Predictable, but I want to go offense.
JPJ is giving me Creed/Linderbaum vibes of don't pass on him. Not saying he'll be as good.
Put him at guard if need be to start off.
I don't really hate any of the options. Although TBH I'd rather have a couple guys at 35 over Robinson who we took at 27...
With Dallas Turner falling Monti had a real chance to move up and get him.
I kinda think we could have got a player just as productive as Robinson in the 3rd round.
Also think he would have been there at 35.
Hoping for the best though.
Allbright also said the Chargers want to trade back, but may be forced to stick and pick. They'd likely take Marvin or Nabers. Chargers don't have Joe Alt as their #1 OL. They'd rather trade back and get the guy they want, but might be forced to just take BPA.
Benjamin Allbright said most teams consider MHJ/Nabers a level above Odunze. He's closer to Brian Thomas Jr according to everything he's hearing.
However, all it takes is one, Monti, to consider Odunze as the top guy or behind MHJ.
So 80 or 85% of MHJ + 2nd rounder and another 3rd (according to Schrager)
Gotta figure they are planning to package those extra 3rd rounders to to move up in the draft though.
@Chopper0080 @DVontel Is it possible that Monti has a very similar grade on MHJ and Odunze? Only thing that makes sense in terms of just getting a 3rd rounder this year and 2nd next year (Its Schragers trade so its possible we'd get back more value in reality).
Just seems like Monti's philosophy isnt to spend big money on players. Even great ones.
Just makes me wonder/worry if Monti just believes if the trenches are good enough we dont need high quality wrs (future expensive wrs as well).
I hope he at least takes Marv, but he might love collecting...
Yea we stripped the roster to tank and get talent like Marvin. Why trade back when its a chance its more Byron Murphy and Zach Allen level talents. Ya know guys we let walk.
Lions knew to not pass Penei Sewell and Aidan Hutchinson like talent when they were rebuilding.
