I would love to see Aaron Rodgers out of the NFC Central! Trade him! Trade. Him. NOW!

Jordan Love, Andy Dalton and Kirk Cousins I can handle.

49ers, Raiders and Broncos are apparently the teams he would consider.

I mean, Rodgers does not have a no-trade clause, so it doesn't matter who he would consider? As mentioned, Denver has a to ten pick, future firsts, and isn't in the NFC, so they have to be the favorites.

But I don't think you want to pay what it will cost if he's not happy to come to your team.

So Rodgers is great but how many years does he really have left?3 maybe ? 4? It sounds like the asking price would be like 3 first rounded and some other picks. That is steep unless a team is sure they are just a an a way. Denver fans here think they are but man I am not sure about that. Plus not sure how much Rodgers should be trusted as far as his motivation to play hard with his life outside football options.

If you get 3 legitimate shots at the Super Bowl, three late round first rounders plus fluff is absolutely nothing. Also Denver with Manning is basically the blueprint for doing this. It's an absolute no brainer.

Kyle Pitts apparently expected to be drafted by GB.

I'm a raiders fan but wife's family are 49ers fans. I could definitely root for Lance. I hope he's successful, seems like a great kid with the ability and smarts to succeed. Also in a great situation with a team that can run and play defense

Ditto. Matt Ryan is probably a happy guy.

On the record: Lance will have a less productive NFL career than celebrated 3rd pick busts Heath Shuler and Akili Smith

Doubt it. You couldn't draw up a better fit for him than San Francisco.

If you think a guy is a no doubt hall of famer and possibly the best player at his position in history, I think you have to take him. The distinction between TE and WR is pretty much moot at this point anyway, and nobody would bat an eyelid at taking a WR at #4.

I feel like Jones is going to end up being an Andy Dalton, where he will end up being an occasionally good but mostly adequate starter for several years. Sort of high floor, not so high ceiling. I get seeing the upside, but I think between Wilson and Lance, at least one busts.

That's why we make predictions.

I'm not sure he would have been an all-state QB in Georgia HS football, in any classification.

A historically bad pick IMO.

There is still a good chance, maybe even likely chance, that Julio gets traded after June 1st. Even without Julio, the Falcons have a very dangerous group of receivers. Ryan has his Tony Gonzalez again.

Agreed. I think success is often as much a product of fit, coaching, surrounding talent, etc. as it is individual talent. Lance is setup to succeed based on those factors.

No problem with Cincy taking Chase. They ended up in a position where they could take either the best WR or LT and they need both.

I’ve been reading the Athletic a lot and they do some good pieces where they get anonymous reports from scouts and coaches. They pretty much universally seem to think Pitts is a sure thing with all the physical gifts, skills, and intangibles.

Why would you trade back up to 6 for a WR? I don't really get that.

I wonder if there has been a modern draft without a defensive player taken in the top six before. Seems possible that we could get to 10.

Not a huge Waddle fan. I'm not sure he's a top 3 receiver in this class.
