Carter & Hunter gone by 4# Trade down?

If we stay and take Carter I am fine with it. If we take Hunter I won't be happy. My ideal scenario is trading back 3-5 spots and getting another 2nd and hopefully Will Campbell is still there at that back end of the top 10.
 
Agree 100%. Both critical needs and those two can play
Campbell is Projected as a Guard Rob: you should know better. We don't need a Guard we Need Tackles.
 
Graham is the only one i would consider at 4 in that scenario. If they don’t view him as exceptional i would do my best to trade down for a 2nd rder and get one of the ot’s or edge rushers in the 6-10 range.

But based on what I’ve read graham would be tough to pass up. Having 2 game wreckers up front if barmore is back, hopefully freeing up white and a fa edge or one at the top of rd 2. If you can address lt and rt in fa this is the way to go and suddenly its looking pretty good up front for us , again pending barmore’s health.
With Barmores health issue Graham is a no Brainer selection. Plus he was well Coached on the College level: game wreckers like Mason Graham don't grow on trees.

That is not the majority consensus. He hasn't played a single snap at guard in college. Nothing is decided until he is drafted by the team which chooses him for their need.

You should know better.

The Best Prospect bar none in the Draft...glad you're not our GM.

I know he has T-Rex arms.
 
Here's a question who would GM BB select @ 4 if Carter and Hunter are gone?? I think the answer is obvious and it wouldn't be a Projected NFL Guard. Mike Vrabel isca Defense HC who usually go with their Gut feeling.

They have him working out as a corner. If he's a corner I really don't want him.

He’s been training as a tackle according to draft experts.

I think Aireontae Ersery is the best Tackle on a Trade down. Ersery is also built like a traditional NFL Tackle.
 
I have a feeling that Hunter might not be a bust but he won't live up to the lofty expectations as either a CB or WR.

I don't think Vrabel passes Travis Hunter if he's there @ 4. Hunter could fill Two Needs for a Team and we have many.

I think Hunter is way more Talented than Prime Time coming out. So what does that tell you...he has Special Player written all over him. People need to stop sleeping on Hunter.

There is zero chance he plays two ways outside of being a corner/gadget guy on offense. Even if you ignore the stamina aspect of it how is Hunter realistically going to be able to learn an offensive and defensive game plan every week, and watch tape, and get practice reps. The two way thing is a cute little gimmick but it isn't realistic in the NFL.
 
Scar is the one who said that using arm length as an evaluation metric is stupid.
Rashawn Slater for the LAC had "guard length" arms and he's been a very good tackle.

But OL Coaches like Scar who can plug almost anyone in is a rare breed. The Guy in Philly is the only OL Coach able to duplicate that: everybody else have QB's running for their NFL lives. The point that's easy for Scar to say. How many OL Coaches have We had since Scar retired?? Three I think and our OL play is among the worse.

I know some of you Patsfans don't like Dion Sanders because he's very outspoken. But make no mistake about it he can Coach: and have nothing but glowing remarks when talking about Travis Hunter.

Most of think that we will trade for a WR and sign another. I also expect us to add a corner.

So, you think that we add Hunter.

So, let our 5 kids all compete for the #4 WR spot?

IMO, wanting to draft Hunter is really an argument to have the draft before free agency.
