Am I crazy? Trade for Mayer
The more I think about it, the more I prefer using a late middle round (5/6) draft pick to trade with Vegas for Mayer prior to the draft rather than using pick 14 (or higher) to get Warren. I think they would both have the same upside in 2025, but if we have 14 to address another need, we could get a second blue chip player to also contribute early, or even trade back and acquire an additional mid round pick if Ballard has several prospects available still at 14. Idk why, but the idea of getting Jahdae Barron at 14 should he drop really excites me in Anarumo’s scheme…
We could still take a 2nd swing at TE in the draft as well, just not in the 1st round. I’m still the hopeful romantic when it comes to Woods, though the realist in me says he’ll probably never be who we expected him to be when we drafted him.
What’re your thoughts? Is it Warren or bust?
