Looks like Texans want to trade. Would we look at this for trading first picks then giving our 2nd and 4th round?

 

I don't think we will do it and I do not believe Texans would trade with us.

 

 

But Clowney would be ours!

And we wouldn't have another pick until 70...with a team with as many needs as ours and how deep this draft is, i'd much rather keep our 2nd and 4th.

I agree but our d-line would be fixed. Just a idea thanks!

Why do people keep asking this??

 

NO!!!!

 

 

The Jags need more picks not less. 

Um....no. I would not trade up for Clowney; nor anyone else in this draft. We stay or move back. If we were in San Fran's position or Seattle's, maybe. But we have too many needs. No way.

 

GO JAGS!!

This team isn't going to trade up, especially with a division rival.

I'm not even sure i'd take Clowney at 3..

But you'd take Bridgewater.



Makes sense.

I would trade with the Texans to move up to 1 giving them a 4th and a 5th and thats about it lol.

And there's a 0% chance of them taking that.

Not asking???????????? What if?

SOP for the draft: Never give your division rival more picks.

Clowney is great and all, but I really don't want to be trading away picks.  I suppose I'd be ok with a trade back into the first if it was for a QB and it was cheap, but that's about it.

Maybe the texans will trade their first for ours and just swap 2nds. Sounds good to me :teehee:

Meh, I don't think we necessarily need more. It's gonna be real hard for 11 picks + several priority UDFA to make the team as is. If we do get even more picks I hope they are used to move back up later, or to get 2015 picks.

They can have our 5th and still pick up khalil Mack and save themselves money on paying his 3rd pick money as opposed to 1st. However minuscule that money might be.

Suppose there were an NBA style draft and trade deal involving the Jaguars and Texans, who would, under this scenario, want Khalil Mack, and trade Clowney to the Jaguars in exchange for Mack and other picks.

 

What would be the paramaters?

 

Those sorts of deals are rare.

 

I can only think of three in my lifetime.

 

The first happened in 1989, when the Cowboys selected G Steve Wisniewski at the top of the 2nd round, and immediately traded him to the Raiders, along with the 140th pick, for the 29th pick, the 68th pick, and the 119th pick.  Keep in mind, there were 28 teams in the league at that time, and no compensatory picks given since there was no free agency as we understand it, just plan B, where only the bottom 5 or so players on any roster were exposed to free agency.

 

The second time it happened was in 1991, again involving Dallas, but this time involving the Lions, and a player who would eventually become a Jacksonville Jaguar, DT Kelvin Pritchett.  Dallas picked Pritchett somewhere around pick 20, and sent him to the Lions for 2nd, 3rd and 4th round picks.

 

The most recent happened at the very top of the 2004 draft.

 

The Chargers selected QB Eli Manning first overall, who did not want to play for the Chargers.

 

The Giants selected QB Phillip Rivers 4th overall.

 

In exchange for swapping the QBs, the Giants sent the Bolts their 3rd round pick in 2004, their first round pick in 2005, and a 5th round pick in 2005.

Of course, there are key differences in the Giants scenario and our hypothetical that would impact price and probability of it happening.

 

1.  The deal does not involve QBs.

 

2.  The distance between the picks is less (1-3 vs. 1-4).

 

3.  The Jaguars and Texans are division rivals, while the Giants and Bolts were not even in the same  conference.

 

The Bolts actually hit on the players they got from the Giants (Kaeding, Merriman).  But perhaps the most important lesson from this is that the Giants still managed to reach the Super Bowl despite losing out on the 3rd round pick in 2004 and the first round pick in 2005.
