Problem being they then reached for Dotson. Probably should have traded with the Lions and still taken Dotson at 32.

Assuming the Lions wanted to trade to 11, but we would have gone all the way down to 32. I don't get this logic.

How do you not get it? Get the same player (Dotson) and much higher picks.

Baltimore showing how to draft, 2 great picks.

So you knew for a fact the Lions wanted to trade with us? Also, Dotson was projected to go in the 20s, and given the run in WRs no way he's there at 32.

The Lions gave the Vikes higher picks in the later rounds because they were trading the 32nd pick.

Maybe. Maybe the Titans would have grabbed him. Who knows? Bottom line is we picked up a speedy wr with good hands that will not only help Carson but Terry too. We also got two extra picks.

Well from the analysis I've seen Dotson was ranked in the overall 40-55 range/ranked as a 2d rounder - I doubt the Titans would have taken Dotson over Burk. 2 Years in a row now Redskins have reached for a player ranked in that range by drafting them in the mid first - maybe it will work out this time though.

Here are some projections. Of course, none of these projections had the run of WRs that happened in mind.

Mock Draft landing spots

Mel Kiper/Todd McShay (ESPN): No. 23, Kansas City Chiefs
“I think the Chiefs will be in the trade-up business with these back-to-back picks, but since we’re not simulating such moves today, I’m setting Patrick Mahomes up with another speedy pass-catcher with excellent hands.”- McShay

Pete Prisco (CBS Sports): No. 29, Kansas City Chiefs
“They need to find a replacement for Tyreek Hill, and Dotson would give them a nice speed threat. Nobody is Hill, but Dotson can run.”

Vinnie Iyer (Sporting News): No. 28, Green Bay Packers
“The Packers should think about doubling up on wide receiver in the first round. London looks the part of an outside No. 1, while Dotson can be the speedy vertical threat for Rodgers to replace free-agent departure Marquez Valdes-Scantling.”

Chris Trapasso (CBS Sports): No. 34, Detroit Lions
