Mariota vs. Leonard Williams vs. Trade

Ultimate laziness, lol. But... I'd honestly love that, but i'd prefer:

1) Kevin White, WR, WVU
2) Cameron Erving, OL, FSU (if Gordon & Gurley are off the board)
2) Ameer Abdullah, RB, Nebraska
3) Hau'oli Kikaha, OLB, Washington
3) Josh Shaw, CB, USC

 

I really would love to trade with the Jets though. #2 for #6, #37, #70, & '16 1st. There's a legit chance that the Jets would end up Top-10 again next year, so that future 1st is extremely valuable. Although, I think they also could be a playoff team.

At #6, we take Amari Cooper or Kevin White. You get a (potentially) elite target to help with Mettenbergers growth. A receiver that opposing teams have to game plan against, true impact player. At #33 & #37 you find our starting RT for the next 10 years and our potential starting RB. Would be amazing if Gurley/Gordon were there, but if not, you'll likely have your choice of who the 3rd rd drafted is. Then, you also have our 3rd and the Jets 3rd, which you could honestly use anywhere (ILB, OLB, CB, DE, NT, QB, WR, TE, OG, OC) - take BPA.

That would be an amazing haul, def worthy of passing on Leonard Williams.

 

I think anyone willing to trade into our #2 spot will be doing so to grab Leonard Williams- not sure the trade partners being discussed are the ones we may potentially trade with.

 

I think we should do some good tings wit da second pick...and tings like dat.

 

In all honesty though, were really screwed any way we go. Don't pick Mariota...he becomes next Tom Brady...Don't pick LW...next coming of JJ Watt. DAMN TITANS LUCK.

 

What about multiple trades??

Say the Jets want Mariota. They give us #6, #37, and a first round pick in 2016 in exchange for the #2 pick.

Also from what I've heard the Browns would like to go WR even with Bowe. Do you think it's possible they would give up #12, 3rd round this year, and a first round pick next year? They could benefit greatly from White or Cooper.

The Titans still draft #12, while adding a 3rd round this year. The following year they could end up with 3 first round picks and 2 second rounders.

We've seen a lot of trade ups in the top 10 since 2011 when it comes to WR. Julio Jones, Tavon Austin, and Sammy Watkins.

Obviously this isn't likely but this type of stuff is what makes the draft fun. We've seen teams trade down multiple times in the 1st round in the past. I personally hope the Titans think about doing this.

 

Not to turn this into a White vs Cooper debate but White just reminds me of a WR that will never live up to his athletic potential. Idk why but i just dont trust products of that Air Raid offense.

Plus Cooper just plays his position so smoothly that ever tome I see him take the feild I am reminded on Reggie Wayne.

 

I'd rather just take White/Cooper at 6

 

Cooper>White

I don't think its even close, Cooper is Reggie Wayne mark 2. Honestly I think that's a reasonable comparison. He would be a great pick for the Titans and Mett and would give us a true number 1. If we move down but stay in top 10. My big board is:

Williams
Cooper
Fowler
Gregory
Beasley
White

 

I've went back and forth on Cooper & White, but Cooper is definitely the superior player. I do think that Whites ceiling is higher, due to his size/athleticism. However, Coopers ceiling is just slightly lower, but is a much safer pick. People act like Cooper isn't athletic, he's still 6'1" 211, 4.42 40, 34" vert, & was a top performer at the 3-cone & 20y shuttle. Coopers tape tells the full story, he's lightning quick, fluid, amazing route runner, and catches EVERYTHING.
