Quote:I've been fantasizing about a trade with Atlanta and then drafting Khalil Mack and using Atlanta's 2nd rounder to draft Dee Ford.    That would be turning the #3 pick into two players. 

 

 

A coworker and football bud presented this idea as well. Then use the other 2nd rounder on a QB.

 

My only issue is that we may have to make some moves and lose a 3rd and 4th rounder to swap the Atlanta second into a first round pick in the 25-32 range to ensure we get Ford.

 

Say its with the #26 team. We lose the Atlanta 2nd, our 3rd rounder and our 4th rounder to get the #26 (take Dee Ford) in the first round and use our #39 on a QB like McCarron or Carr. It would hinder our ability to find some quality interior O-lineman in the middle rounds but would put our pass rush back on the map.

 

First 4 rounds would look like this.

 

1st RD #6 : Mack

1st RD #26 : Ford

2nd RD #39 : Carr

3rd RD: Traded

4th RD :traded

4th RD : Interior O-line
