The issue being, for every Allen, there are 5 busts.  Most QBs who are drafted on "potential" are hot garbage because if they're drafted on potential it generally means they aren't that great.  Allen was able to refine himself for the most part, but he still has his moments where the guy drafted on potential shows up.

As does every QB in league history

The OT HAS to be Paris Johnson Jnr, right? He is the best left tackle prospect in the class by far. 

 

The question is who is calling? 

 

#4 Colts - need a left tackle, but surely going QB

#5 Seahawks - got the best left tackle in last year's draft

#6 Lions - have the best tackle tandem in the NFL

#7 Raiders - have their left tackle, could they trade up for Johnson then stick him at right tackle??

#8 Falcons - have both of their starting tackles locked up on long term deals

#9 Bears - why trade back from #1 to spend it all trading up to #3?

#10 Eagles - have both their tackles locked up 

#11 Titans - possibility

#12 Texans - just re-set the market for their LT

#13 Jets - possibility

#14 Patriots - possibility

#15 Packers - be surprised, doesn't feel like a Green Bay move despite Bhaktiari's age and injuries

#16 Commanders - possibility

#17 Steelers - possibility

#18 Lions - see #6

#19 Buccs - possibility

#20 Seahawks - see #5

 

Any of those are big, costly moves up for a tackle IMO. And for anyone after that surely too far to go.

This one makes the most sense. If they really like Paris Johnson they could trade the 1st they got from Carolina in 2024 (or their own 2024 1st) to move up to #3. They come away with DJ Moore, Paris Johnson, plus an extra 2nd in 2023 and 2025. That's quite the haul for Ryan Poles. Plus they still have a 1st rounder next year if they need to move on from Justin Fields.

Not to me. They need everything. They are in the perfect position to wait and see what falls to them at #9. If it is Carter, they need a DT. If it is Wilson or Murphy or Anderson, they need an EDGE. If it is Johnson or Skoronski, they need OL and if it is Witherspoon or Gonzalez, they need corner. I don't think giving a 1st rounder away again in that scenario makes sense.
