Thank God.
So looking at the draft value chart which is a good general reference....if you get a 4 back then you gave away points equalling pick 57 or a mid 2nd.............if you get a 3 back then you gave away points equalling pick 87 which is a third....so you almost have to get a third back or you lose. So if you only get a 4 back it essentially equals 8 draft slots from your second ...... not worth it.

Trade rashad jones for rosen. Keep our draft picks. Jones quit on us last year. Let him go.
That would be better than giving up a 2nd for Rosen. Jones doesn't seem to be in our long term plans and we have McDonald and minkah to be the 2 starting safeties.
If I am Miami given my needs on the lines and this being a deep line class on both sides, I might consider a 3 next year and a 4 this year for 48.................

That being said. We could still get a good player in the 4th. And if rosen turned out good. It would be perfect.
Man, giving up a 2 when you are staring at the potential of some really really good players being available? Meh.
IMO, wait and see who drops to us in the second before we make anything official, and preferably grab AZ's third rounder rather than fourth.
It's hard to get really excited about a guy who was, frankly, really bad. Best case is we turn him into Jared Goff 2.0. Worst case is we saw pretty well what he is last year and we give up a valuable pick for someone else's trash.

Im with you. there are too many immediate starters, really good players left to be had in the 2nd round. I would refuse a 2nd rounder

Does not work salary wise...you would have to give up 48 to get someone to take on his salary given your salary offset for Rosen is less than 3 mm.

I cannot believe it would be straight up for 48....Grier should be run out of town 30 seconds after the draft if that is the case. I doubt it is the case.

I think everyone is just guessing at this point as 48 straight up makes no sense.

I would not be happy giving away a 2nd round pick unless we had an extra pick in said round. I was happy with our first pick, but I hope they do not blow a 2nd rounder.

Hell if you gonna give up 48 and get nothing or a token back...keep 48 and roll with whatever QB is next on your list for the extra year under the rookie deal. Save yourself a couple mil difference between a QB @ 10 salary and a QB @ 48 salary...

Hopefully the Cards cave and settle for a 3rd. That would be a good deal for Miami IMHO.

Agree. I don't go higher than that. That pick might have likely been spent on a QB anyways. Rosen will still have a 5th-year option available if he balls out.

Give us Rosen and a 3rd rounder (nothing less). Then, I would be fine with giving up our 2nd rounder.
Round 1 - starting DT
Round 2 - starting QB
Round 3 - starting RT
Round 3 - starting LG
Round 4 - starting RG
Try to trade back up into Round 4 for a starting Center
I would use rounds 3 & 4 to snatch up all 3 Wisconsin linemen...
David Edwards at Right Tackle
Michael Dieter at Left Guard
Beau Benzschawel at Right Guard
If you can get back into the 4th round or if by some miracle he falls to us in the 5th, take Alabama center, Ross Pierschbacher.
Leave out of this draft with 6 starters.

Somebody smarter than me; what is the worst case scenario if this deal went through? I've got Rosen turns out to be like RT17 in that he's a limited QB and that the player we were going to pick up with the pick turns into a multi-time pro bowler.
Just keep one thing in mind, a pro bowl nomination is more of a popularity contest.

I would rather stay the course and build the rest of the team and go for a qb next year. We already have Fitzpatrick to mind the store for a year or two. Unless you really think Rosen can be the guy, why do it?

I feel a 2nd for Rosen isn't too bad IF it is coupled with a 4th or 5th from the Cardinals.
In this draft an extra pick at 4th or 5th could mean getting another good player. That way we really limit any potential draft player loss to a marginally less well though of player and improve our QB situation. This kind of trade is always a good opportunity.
At this point playing favorites is useless. Take anyone you can get who will improve the team. Considering there is a new coaching staff in town, what constitutes a good team right now is entirely their opinion. Until we see how the product performs on the field we are not in a position to know what we have. We only know what we had and that doesn't transfer under these circumstances.
