It seems like Licht attempts to trade up in the 2nd every year but can never find a partner.

I wish he couldn’t find a partner in the Aguayo trade.

That's what drafting for need and "locking a position down for 10 years" gets you. Like the Bucks missing free throws, missed kicks played far too big a role in our losses the season prior. Heck in the two seasons prior to the reach we had a missed kick in 23 of the 32 games. It was really bad.


In Licht's own words:


At the 9:40 mark

No team traded into or out of the 1st round.

Cleveland, San Francisco, Denver, Miami, Los Angeles Rams haven't made picks yet.

It would be a dream draft pick for Joey Porter, Jr. if the Steelers took him with that first pick tonight. They’ll prolly go another direction since good stories like that don’t seem to materialize, but it would be cool.

The local popular outspoken sports nut Steeler fan female barista here in Bradenton swears that the Steelers will do just that.

We shall see….they are on the clock.
There will be no fun here if that comes to fruition.

Heard an interesting take on the radio. An offensive coordinator who worked really closely with Levis is now working for the Rams. The Rams pick 36th. Stafford is getting beat up. Injuries and such.

Hard to say how long he’s going to be there if they skip on Levis, it really doesn’t bode well. Who knows how far the tumbling will go…

Make lot of sense.

I’ll still take him regardless

How would you even know this?
A little inside source called Jason Licht?

"We made a lot of calls to try to move up, but it just didn't work out. It wasn't from a lack of effort on our part." - Jason Licht, 2019 NFL Draft

"We made a lot of calls to move up. It just didn't happen." - Jason Licht, 2018 NFL Draft

"We tried to move up. It's a lot easier said than done. We had a lot of calls to make and we made a lot of them. It just didn't work out for us." - Jason Licht, 2016 NFL Draft


He talks about it all the time, trying to trade up but "but you need a partner" and "it takes two to tango" (he loves that line).
And that's just when he isn't able to trade, often he does pull off a trade.

Come to grips with this draft, our hands are tied unless we are gifted a fruit basket from some team.

Guess we'll see if we end up regretting passing on Levis and then not trading up for him.

Hoping for Dawand Jones in the second. Doubt he lasts but there's a chance. Dude is just a mammoth and will be a bulldozer in the run game.

If we go that route I'd want Freeland.

We could still make a move here for Branch. It’s not yet too late…
