Not a HUGE Hutchinson fan, but I like him way more than Walker out of Georgia.  I am strongly hoping that all that speculation about the Jaguars taking him first overall is nothing but pre draft smoke, but I've heard that Baalke is a height/weight/speed guy when it comes to drafting, favoring potential over production.  In fairness, he has demonstrated he knows how to find a front 7 player on defense (Aldon Smith, Arik Armstead, DeForest Buckner), but Walker scares me to death.

My preference all offseason has been to trade back, but i don't see it happening.

Wasn't trying to debate Trevor, just mentioning that his play last season is the biggest thing for me in terms of why I'm not super excited. I'm cautiously optimistic, but not really sure what to expect this year.

Also I 100% am with you on the idea of trading back, I do think Hutchinson will be a good player but in a perfect world i'd love to get #5 and #7 from NY and go from there.. obviously wont ever happen but it would be nice. A combo of Thibbs + Best available WR would get me excited.

I think the 5 & 7 scenario you bring up is the sort of package we might expect if there were a clear cut Franchise QB prospect or a Myles Garret type DE in this draft class.

Since there isn't (though I suspect Thibs might be the closest thing in the class to it), I would adjust my expectations of what a good trade down package might be.  But again, I think we keep the pick.

I just hope we get the pick-the entire draft for that matter-absolutely right.
