Highlights from season ending press conference with Caldwell and Bradley

Quote:If you think Mallet has the same level of talent as Kolb, Cassel, and Cousins, then nothing will help you my friend. 
 

Agreed. Mallett >>>>>>> all of them combined 

 

Quote:An understandable philosophy.

 

However, given your stance regarding how undesirable our current first round draft position is, how tenable is trading down this year?

 

According to you, the two true superstar caliber players-Clowney and Bridgewater- will be off the board by three.

 

If this is true, what real incentive would any team below us have in trading up with us?  Why would any team below us trade above Cleveland?

 

It seems you would fault the team for not trading down when there seems little to no incentive for any team to trade up.  For that matter, if we stick solely to the words you used in this message I quoted above, then if Clowney somehow makes it to three and the team takes him, they are still somehow at fault for not trading down.

 

Am I misinterpreting you?
 

As said before, there have indeed been examples of trams trading down for some nice packages of draft choices even when they are not sitting on an RG3 type player at their pick. 

 

A few years ago (I think it was the ALualu draft) the Eagles traded down twice, when sitting at 14 initially. Just as one recent example. 

 

I also remember Belichick making many trade downs on almost a yearly basis to acquire a better quantity of picks, as well as winding up with multiple #1's for a period of years. 

 

 

Quote:There are much better ways to use that 3rd round pick that trading it for Mallet. I'd like to see the Jaguars get great value one a WR in the 3rd round with a guy like Paul Richardson.
 

lol, so Paul Richardson > potential franchise QB. 

 

okay.
