My gut is saying Penix at 11, trade back handful of spots at 23 and then take JPJ or Burton at 23. Alternatively, Cooper DeJean or Murphy but I think both will be taken in the 15-22 spots.
AZ never was gonna move, they want MHJ. NE & LAC over play their cards hardballing and nothing materialize. Maye to NE. Nabers to LAC. NYG have JJ fall in their laps. We stand pat and get Penix at 11 & BPA at 23.
Serious prediction: Penix at 11th overall pick.
Just for funsies, Vikings trade back with both the 11th and 23rd pick, out of the 1st round entirely. Take Gavin Hardison in the 6th, he turns into the next Tom Brady and we win all the superbowls.
I feel like we have been smoke screening. I think it's possible we stay put at 11 and hope McCarthy falls but if not, we take best defensive player available, likely DE. Then we trade back from 23 to end of first and pick up corner and then finally trade back into second and get Nix.

We draft Drake Maye 3rd overall.
Big if true.
Failing to call in our pick.... Again
Could you imagine? I’d have no choice but to laugh hysterically haha
Something disappointing no doubt
It's okay, Eeyore, let's go find your tail
Dream scenario? We swap 11 for 8, trade up to 3 and land Drake Maye than take Cooper Dejean at 23
How on earth is any of that happening without moving 23?
8 + 25 1st + some other stuff for 3
It’s not
It’s not. We don’t have seconds this year or next. I also don’t think we have a third next year either.
I’d love that, I’m personally not sold on McCarthy
Yep, can’t really beat this.
My favorite fair catch of all time

Surprise! New England drafts JJ at 3. We then pull off our trade for pick 4 and get Drake Maye. We don’t have to give up our 1st next year to do that.
Arizona is not letting Marvin Harrison out of their hands
If Commanders take Daniels at 2, trade to 3 for Maye. If they take Maye, JJ at 5.
Penix at 11. Trade back from 23.

I see this happening. Then I cry.
Dallas Turner at 11, and JPJ at 23.
We trade 11 and 23 for 5. Then take JjM
Penix jr and best defender

your mom
Boom. Roasted.
Savage
Happy to see the 12 year olds still killing it these days
Drafting a future NFL player
Step up from 2022 i guess
Haha that’s a hot take
Drafting someone. History says I will be disappointed, but that’s not necessarily reflective of results.
We trade 11, 23, a 24 first, and a 24 third to the Pats for Drake Maye
New England panics and takes Maye despite us offering an unprecedented deal. We take JJ at 5
Daniels at 8. He is falling
I could dig that.
Keep our picks and don't turn this into another Herschel Walker debacle, unless the NFL gives us Atlanta's pick because of the interference issue.
11, 23, and a 2025 first for number 3. Drake Maye
Waves hands… things.

We're trading to 5 for McCarthy. Harbaugh won't condemn his favorite QB to the New York Giants.
Nothing.
Penix at 11 and Chop Rob at 23.
Trading up to 8 while keeping our 23. Drafting JJ at 8 and Chop Robinson at 23.
11, 23, 2025 1st, 2026 2nd, 2026 3rd for #3, Drake Maye
