Time to trade up in draft ?

Cards 1st they're probably not going QB. 49ers have Jimmy G so they won't either, Jets just took Darnold.

Then there's the Raiders. Gruden has been rolling the dice a lot and he loves him some Carr.

After that there's several teams that QB could/should be on the menu.

Bucs say Winston is coming back but I wouldn't bet on it. Giants will almost surely go QB with Manning winding down. The Jags have ummm Bortles. Stafford isn't getting younger for the Lions, and Keenum isn't all that inspiring for Denver.

I'm no draft guru but I doubt there will be any QB's left by 11, worth drafting that high.

If we do get a new younger offensive minded HC and new staff would it be time to roll the dice and try and trade up with Gruden ?

Mike Brown hasn't traded up that high in the draft since what early 90's ?

Is it time ?

IF they had been top 5, there is a chance they could have gotten Haskins.  As it is, I don't see that happening unless too many teams shy away from his lack of starts in college.  It didn't hurt Trubisky that much, though, going #2 overall, but in fairness he did play some games his prior two years.  

I think they will stay put and hope for an impact lB like White out of LSU.  That position has not been overdrafted of late and he could be the first LB off the board.
