Round 2 Decision

[Harry]

I was asked if the Cards do go DT in round 1, do they need to trade up in round 2 to secure a needed Edge? If the Cards offer their fourth they could likely move to pick 42 or 43 from their 50 spot. If that’s not early enough their third would buy them the first or second pick in round 2. Of course depending who’s on the board some teams may be unwilling to trade if their guy is there. Many Edges will go in round 1, but a few good ones will slide early in round 2. Whether one will last until 43 is dicey.

I think.....
The top couple DTs will go early, ..leaving guys we can get in round 2 so we should focus on pass rushing olb in round 1....maybe even use our 4th to move up a couple slots

Would make things a lot easier if we sign a FA for edge or DT. While the names arent all world they would be an upgrade, and help to not have the need to trade a draft pick to move up

It seems signing a free agent at DT or Edge would be wise and still draft a DT and edge with our first two picks.
Add experienced to our OL with free agents.

There are some round 2 edge guys with potential. The kids from Marshall and Ole Miss(I think) come to mind right away. I looked at a consensus ranking board and Sawyer was listed at 46.

i also think premium positions will start to move up as we get closer

just to pick my current favorite future Cardinal - Jack Sawyer. I think it would be a shock (assumiing no bad medical news or the like) if he made it to pick 46.

but its also early
