Why on earth would we trade up to select Linderbaum just to keep Baltimore from him? It would have taken a 3. We have a center BTW. So we lose our backup DT at 3 and lose Dax Hill in your scenario. We are on the verge of losing both safeties next year because keeping Higgins and Joe is going to take a lot of money. Maybe we can keep Bell. It was smart to bring Hill in early. I disagree trading up to get Linderbaum. It’s more heck no than hell no. Linderbaum is going to be good.
If we were trying to win it all this year Linderbaum helps us more than anyone else we got for the rest of the draft, but now our division rival has him and he will be kicking our ass for the next decade which is twice as bad. The draft is mostly for depth and we didn't really get anyone that is better than what we currently have in our starters. I also think Linderbaum all but guarantees we have great depth and starters across the OL. Right now we have a big old question mark at LG.
