freester Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I can see this happening if Vea is around at pick 16. We would give only a 3rd to move up a few spots. He is the next Haloti Ngata and we have nothing at DT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am generally open to taking BPA, but I agree this year - if you aren’t trading up for a (hopeful) candidate to be the long-term QB, then stay put.

If the Dolphins trade up and I have already allowed for that they might then building a stout defense becomes imperative. Just our luck that Brady will play at a high level for a few more years, Dolphins get Rosen, and the Jets sign Cousins. We can look forward to going 1-5 or 0-6 in the division if those unholy stars align and we neglect the defense. I'm trying to remember Batman's line from the 1966 movie about the team up of Joker, Riddler, Penguin, and Catwoman because that is what it will be like.

I have no idea if this guy will be great or a flop, but to be accurate you're trading a 1st and a 3rd and getting a 1st in return. To be more precise, you're trading a 3rd to move up 5 spots.

He is the next Haloti Ngata and we have nothing at DT I could see McDermott being partial to Harrison Phillips from Stanford later in the draft. They both have wrestling backgrounds plus he's a good player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or we could build a defense that could realistically get 45 sacks per season and limit opponents to under 100 yards rushing per game. And give us a chance to win games. It won't do any good to switch divisions as the Steelers have held our number for a quarter century and the Browns will come out of their 30 year slumber to sweep us year after year. Heck our long dominance over the Bengals is waning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I absolutely love Vita Vea. I think he is going to be an elite player. Giving up an extra pick in the third to move up would be an absolute steal. Any other year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some stud DT's in the first round and one will fall to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostwriter Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I'd rather stay put and take Taven Bryan, he would be ideal to pencil down next to Kyle. If Vita Vea fell to 21 though, he obviously should be taken over Bryan, they're both going to be very good. Bryan is more of a penetrator like KW, Vea is more like Marcell Dareus in his prime.
