I buy into that.
It also fits with Harbaugh constantly pumping up J.J. McCarthy. A trade-down from 5 is a lot more lucrative if a team is coming up to get a perceived "franchise QB." [Reply]
Yea, just as many of us suspected, Harbaugh 100% prefers OL over WR. Now, maybe the top WR available on their board is just THAT much better, but I doubt it. [Reply]
100% they would trade with Minnesota or another team. If they get two first round picks, then they can draft a tackle high and grab a WR towards the end of the first round. [Reply]

I think their spot is where Minnesota tries to make their move...makes too much sense. [Reply]
Yes, everybody keeps pointing to the Cardinals at 4, but they already have a shit ton of picks. It's the Chargers at 5. That's the spot to trade up and take QB4. [Reply]

Anyone notice that Kevin O’Connell was extremely calm in Orlando this week? He even brought up Denver knowing they have to compete with them for a QB and was joking about it.
Sean Payton knows he’s ****ed. The Cardinals aren’t trading back with MHJ on the board and there’s no way in hell Harbaugh is trading with Sean to take his college QB to be in his division.
The Broncos are ****ed and I love it. Only chance they have is if NE traded back with Minnesota bc they don’t want a QB leaving one of the four to drop. I honestly can’t see that happening. [Reply]
Cardinals really thinking this or is this BS? Sean Payton mentioned their GM being in a great position. Could not be any more obvious that Denver is trying to make a trade with them

ESPN did a mock today that had Denver trading with them. They got 12, a 2025 1st and a 2026 1st. That would garner some attention for me, especially if I could use one of the many top 100 picks to get back in the top 10 from 12.
That 2025 1st will most likely be top 5 like their current pick.

Tough choice IMO
Trading down to 11-12 basically means you're losing out on MHJ, Nabers, AND Odunze now.
Their WR situation is terrible.
Again, you can't just keep trading back. You have to pick a blue chipper when you have the opportunity eventually. [Reply]
Harbaugh has been putting too much out there in trading down to take a player at 5. Selling McCarthy or the best WR in the draft should Arizona trade their pick so someone can take McCarthy and then he would have the best WR fall in his lap to trade, but I have to think their first move by a long shot is trade. Best WR or Joe Alt is just the bonus if they can't get suitable compensation, but they're in one of the best spots in this draft no doubt about it unfortunately. I'm glad the Broncos and the Raiders fucked themselves by trying to keep up with Patrick Mahomes last season, but the Chargers just went fetal position for a better draft pick in a Brandon Staley-less future, they played it right.
