Triplett trades up

Mike Triplet Trades up from 27-19 grabs Brandon cooks
gives up a 3rd and 6th to move up


This was my reaction.
MIKE Triplett You Have needs at WR and a Center. How you gonna get both of those filled with Quality players if you trade up? If trade down and you can get them both in the 2nd round. K.Benjamin at say 35 and with our original 2nd can get Marcus martin more than likely or something similar. Just sayin do this The LOOMIS WAY

We already have a 5'10" WR in Stills keep that in mind

what you guys think
I want more Picks in this Draft as Deep as it is not less

Re: Triplett trades up

Pick a Center in the 2nd, 4th or either 5th?

No to trade up or down. There is plenty of quality at #27. And more than in the early 2nd or 3rd round. Stay put and help the team.

Re: Triplett trades up

There is a chance that Cooks is there at #27. Otherwise, there will be stud CB or LB. Stay put.

Mike drafted like Payton/Loomis do. BPA, your needs are moot.

Re: Triplett trades up

With Gilbert, Shazier ,Fuller still on the board I do not think he was BPA certainly not enough to trade up for

Re: Triplett trades up

The offense struggled at times last year and could really do with the explosiveness of somebody like Cooks.We need somebody to scare the living daylights out of teams the way Sproles did two years ago,somebody that can turn a 10 yard quick pass into a 60 yard gain. If the offense moves as slowly as it did at times last year and stalls we are screwed when the chips are down. I like it,we have a good roster so be aggressive and get the players you want,do not make do.With the amount of teams who want to move down its pretty cheap to move up.

Id be happy to trade 1/3/6 for a OBJ,Cooks and then BPA again in the second and fourth and packaging the two 5ths to move into the 4th for the right player and go grab the best UFA again.Four good players is better than 3 good and 4 mediocre/potential

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

Re: Triplett trades up

I'd go best player available. If we're talking need, we need offense. Our offense held us back in all the big games.

Offense held us back in both seattle games, and vs rams, patriots (couldnt get one first down) jets game (same again) and vs carolina in week 16

Our offense needs the pick in my opinion

Re: Triplett trades up

I think they should trade Graham for a first and second. Then we would have 1,1,2,2,3,4,5,5,and6....I think we could build a team with that
