Sure doesn't feel that way after getting to know the class a little better. Ton of older prospects with 5-6 years of college. I'm wondering if that means more rookies ready to contribute right away. I still usually prefer the underclassman early entrants that have excelled though.
If these mocks are true we should be able to find guys with all 10 picks that can provide serious competition for a spot on the 53. I wouldn't mind if they trade some picks and move around. But Russell Bodine and Ryan Finley are two of the few trade-ups we have done in recent years. So uh
maybe just make the picks. Or trade down and add picks for next year since we have a ton of free agents after this season.
We traded up for cam Taylor Britt. That was a solid pick. Didn’t we trade back with KC to grab our awful punter? We traded back to take Chris Perry. Trading back doesn’t always work too. Neither does staying where you’re at. Plenty of bad picks. Too hard to predict. I doubt data shows trading up gives you a higher or lower chance to pick a stud or bust.
