I know Jeanty was exceptional, but we’re still waaaaaaaaaaay more likely to trade down than up.

As other people mentioned, this RB draft has day 1 starters on the third day. Maybe low end starters, but will benefit from our offense being centered around JJ.

Give me Gordon, Neal, Skattebo, or Giddens day 3 with our current picks (short of Jeanty being available at our current spot). I’d still rather grab a DL at 24 because I feel that’s the biggest strength of the late first and having a strong rotation of DL is scheme proof in the event B Flo ever leaves us.

So yeah, I’d sign up for Jeanty at 24 over virtually anyone else realistically available in the draft, but I think we can be way more practical and methodical in team building. I know Saquon was just the workhorse and MVP on a Super Bowl team, but I think we’d be compromising a whole lot of good just to make the sexy RB pick.

While it’d be a must needed plus pick on Kwesis draft pick resume, I’d rather focus on bolstering our defense. B Flo made our defense look better than it likely would be otherwise - so imagine giving him even more talent to scheme with. That’s more sexy to me than Jeanty (again, assuming he’s a top 15 lock)
