Hey, I'm not saying I would do it. But it's the Jets.

Agreed. Fautanu rumblings upset me. I want all of these guys taken ahead of us.

I bet their board is Bowers/BTj/trade back/worthy. If one of the DEs they like is there I would have him as a dark horse.

I agree on the trade back for Worthy

I’m guessing the board looks like

Bowers, Worthy, DeJean, Mitchell

[Dam8610]

Ideally Worthy isn't on the board. Much rather have Pearsall, even in Round 1 with a trade down.

It's weird because overall, I get this feeling that DeJean is really being slept on.

I don't know why I feel that way. Because he's still a projected 1st-rounder and several guys that I usually agree with have him as CB1 in this draft.

If he didn’t get hurt, he’d be the top DB in this draft easily

Well said, and I agree 100%. We have enough good players on our team. What we need is more elite/great players. I just have this concerning feeling that we're going to trade down a bunch and end up w/ a draft similar to 2019. Hope that's not the case.

Several teams are open to trading back from their Top 10 pick:

After asking around, pretty clear much of the top 10 is at least moderately open for business on a potential trade-back:

3. Patriots: Open
4. Cardinals: Open
5. Chargers: 7-Eleven open
7. Titans: Willing to listen (soft open)
8. Falcons: Open
9. Bears: Open
10. Jets: Soft open

Pick already, Bears! Probably trading the pick for Trubisky

[CletusPyle]

Chicago Bears to Justin Fields....Fuck You!

Daniels gone, now it's the Patsies, lets hope they fuck it up as usual. They may not BB is gone.
