Potential of Draft Trades/Movement
 

What are ya'll thoughts on us getting back to Mickey and Sean's wild streak of moving around in the draft?
What's Jeff Ireland's tendencies before getting hired in the Big Easy and will it override the regimes willingness to stay or move?
I'm thinking the potential is high this year for a Shocker..

"Angry Mark" seemed to reach his prime running with wreckless abandon and was arguably the healthiest he's been since being drafted lost his cool,and so did Brandin Cooks this past season.
Will the organization make an example of them to show its a team first philosophy in Nawlins' and trade them away?

I think I can see the daylight right around the corner and our team on the verge of hitting a powerful stride in 2017.Do we lose one of our proven playmakers in this upcoming draft to gain profit in a defensive laden draft...

The potential of a still unknown Lasco could emerge to make Ingram expendable who knows...

Thoughts?

Who will want to jump ahead of Cleveland at 12
Top WR on the board? Second rated QB? Top rated CB? Who falls from the top 10? Jabrill Peppers?

1st 11 = 1250 to Phili pick 14
1st 14 = 1100
3rd 74 = 220

* Phili will probably be looking to trade A LB lost on their new system.

Mychal Kendricks MLB/OLB 5111 250 4.56
He has unreal athletic ability and the potential is there.

Kendricks is a solid blitzing linebacker. In his first 3 years Kendricks at ILB was one of three NFL linebackers with at least 8.0 sacks, three interceptions and five forced fumbles. He earned that 5year, $30 million contract. 2015 Kiko Alonso arrives and he bounce to OLB. Did so so in 2015 and managed to be 14 ranked as a 43OLB.

2016 Bye bye Chip Kelly and hello to Jim Schwartz who rarely blitzes. Thus he has become a bit of a cap head ache, so he does not carry the trade value he normally would. He is one of the last of the "Kelly" players left that just does not fit in. I bet he would rework that contract (Signed a 5year, $30 million in 2014) to get out of town to start again for an attacking defense in which he fits. Will DA entertain the idea to fit his attacking nature? Will Kendricks rework that deal?

Mychal Kendricks MLB/OLB 5111 250 4.56
1st 14 = 1100
4th 105 = 84

OR

1st 11 = 1250 to Tenn pick 18
1st 18 = 900
3rd 81 = 185
3rd 83 = 175
4th 116 = 62

Getting back to the wild streak of moving around? We traded up twice last year... That's how they've always been.

Re: Potential of Draft Trades/Movement
 

What are the saints going to do with Stephone Anthony?

Re: Potential of Draft Trades/Movement
 

I should've been more specific here.
I'm questioning to whether or not we go all out in the first with either moving up or back in the 1st landing something Big throwing in one of our own.

We stayed put last year.I think we go aggressive this year in the first rd. shaking it up.

Re: Potential of Draft Trades/Movement
 

If you listen to Jeff Ireland, keep him and have him get better.

Re: Potential of Draft Trades/Movement
 

Go all out? Pull a Ditka? top 3?

Myles Garrett, DE, Texas A&M
Jonathan Allen , DE, Alabama

Stephone Anthony added to soften the blow? Bell? Byrd? LMAO could not help myself

Re: Potential of Draft Trades/Movement
 

Lol Oh yea I'd think pretty hard about throwing in one of them.
Jury's still out I think on all 3 of them.

Byrd Finally healthy flashed for a couple of plays reminiscent of his Buffalo days.
Bell is promising I think if he doesn't take "byrd-like" angles.He did prove he's not scared to tackle if he's actually in on the play which was a supposed knock on him.

I'm still pulling for Stephone after what he showed his rookie year as far as being a playmaker.
Maybe with Vitt gone the light may come on.maybe not lol

I'm going look into that linebacker you mentioned.

Re: Potential of Draft Trades/Movement
 

If someone would really want to shake things up ,move Vaccarro and Armstead. There are stout 2 FA we could pusuit for the O-line and Peat could slide to LT, but both Vaccarro and Armstead have good trade value.

Re: Potential of Draft Trades/Movement
 

Wow that would rattle some cages. Peat move would make think blocking TE and RB upgrades right off the bat.
Vaccarro while he not a traditional player has proven his worth.

I am pondering this one

Speaking of pondering, Stephone Anthony might be able to pull off being a DE on passing downs. We have had smaller. i am still in the Anthony corner.
