Tipster19 Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 The more I think about it this makes the most sense. Imo the pressure is on Beane to make this draft work and fortifying Josh would be the best bet, whether it be a stud RB, a top tier WR or a OL to help solidify the trenches. To me it’s really between a stud RB or a mainstay OL because to hear Beane a top WR isn’t as important as one would think. Not having an abundance of draft picks this year I expect Beane to tap into the the 2024 draft resource to make this happen, either using a day 2 or 3 pick to move up in this year’s draft. Why not use a future draft pick when the heat is on now for a successful draft. If Beane comes up short this year he may not have to worry about next year’s draft. 1 1 5 5 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tipster19 Posted April 8, 2023 Author Share Posted April 8, 2023 I love this time of the year, it’s the most exciting outside of the games themselves. Bear with me the draft will be here soon enough and then you won’t hear that much from me the rest of the year. All I do is envision different scenarios from all different angles, I only post about 5% of what goes through my head. If ESPN (not that they are the most credible) is posting this then it gives me even more hope that something like this will happen. 2 minutes ago, Herb Nightly said: So ,you just read Matt Miller on ESPN Insider?

Why wouldn’t Beane do something like this, it’s no secret that he’s been whiffing on most of his drafts and the way the season ended last year there’s been talk about him having some heat on him. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 This is McBeane ... They're going to take a Defensive Lineman, follow that up with a LB, then go offense the rest of the way. I could see them trade up in the 2nd to get their LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Trading up makes sense for Paris Johnson or Peter Skoronski. Two very good olinemen who would start in 2023. Trading up for anyone else would seem to be foolish to me. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly Torrence, I guess, if they're going offensive line. By projections, they'd have to get up pretty far to get either Skaronski or Johnson.

With older Von Miller, Older Jordan Poyer, Older Mycah Hyde, Older Mitch Morris (all four of whom are broken to various degrees plus a broken Tre White) would indicate 2023 is a win now year. Personally I don't care much about saving nexts years #1 as the foundation of a new rebuild. But pretty good chance all of those guys are gone. And then we are building around Allen, Johnson/Skoronski-Dawkins-McGovern, a new Center (I would hope to get Tippman with our second round pick this year). Allen and strong line is the best foundation we can hope for after the mass exodus we should expect after this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Governor Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Trading up in the 1st to get a RB is a good way to get fired. With it already being 50/50 Beane still has a job after this season, I wouldn’t rule it out entirely. Desperate, cornered animals do unpredictable things. 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
