What if 4/20/18

[Draft Crazy]

Trade down to #12 in first round

Round 1- Vita Vea, DT, Washington
Round 1- Leighton Vander Esch, ILB, Boise State
Round 2- Frank Ragnow, C/OG, Arkansas

Ragnow appears to be the fastest riser in the draft right now. Many speculate he will end up to the Bengals at #21.. Just how how has he risen?

I'm still not a fan of moving down. At number 5, our odds of getting a special player is much higher, IMO.

I would be ok with it. Not my favorite mock draft but one I would feel like we got possibly 3 starters.

This would be a draft that everyone comes out of there not thrilled but not mad either. Not flashy but potentially solid starters that make your team better for years to come.

I LOVE IT!

Vander Esch scares me. Didn't like, 10 teams completely take him off their boards due to a medical condition?

And what else are we getting in that trade down? I know what the charts say, but I think this is a different situation where we could fleece someone since they would be moving up for a QB that they consider a franchise guy and should be willing to overpay. 12, 22, 53 or 55, and a 1st next year would be nice.

I aint making these based on who I like or want. I am giving scenarios to see how you would act.

We all know you will be pissed no matter who we take.

I missed this, but now that I see it - This is how I would go. - Via and Vander Esch would allow the Broncos to show some QB pressures from the middle - missing since Malik Jaskson left. Via is just a monster - a tireless monster. I think a C/G is needed, but don't know much about Ragnow.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Apparently Vander Esch has been rejected by some teams due to a neck concern.

He is still projected round 1. He was cleared at the combine and all other doctors.

 

[MileHigh64]

Do you seen Vander Esch as a Luke Kuechly clone?

 

[Draft Crazy]

No, but I adored and adore Kuechly.

I do like Vander Esch though. Kuechly is just in another world, IMO.

4 first round picks in total between 2009 and 2010 and Denver was still drafting top 5 in 2011. DT only player of impact.

Take the impact player don't trade back

Most drafts I would agree. The depth of this draft though makes me ok with trading back.
