What do you think about this? Would you want Khalil Mack for our two 2019 first round picks? Plus the salary he would require?

Boy oh boy... I can't imagine how this will ultimately go down but it was an unexpected source of drama and entertainment this off-season. What are the Raiders thinking!?

---

Too high. How old is he?

I’d rather get two 23 year old Khalil Macks. Those two firsts could be our bookend pass rushers for the next decade. I mean, we’re already stacked on the DL.

Montravius, Cobb and a 2.

---

A 1st and something else. Most of his pay will be offset when clays contract is done or gone.

---

He's 27.
You will never get two Macks drafting where GB's 2 first round picks will be in 2019.

No way Raiders will take Cobb for anyone. Montravious doesn't have very much trade power at this time. Oakland/Las Vegas will want #1 picks not #2.

Back to your question Zero, I think it will take both 1st to get him. Is it a good deal or not is open to debate. I would try a 1st and 3rd and see if they bite. If not let it go.

---

Their demands have to be lower considering they have proven an unwillingness to pay him. Deal with a holdout and an unhappy player or trade him for a 1 to a team who will pay him

---

He himself isn't a full Mack, he's already 27. You have two firsts, you get two good players for a decade.

---

After posting this topic, I spent time thinking about it and I'm going to say no. He is not worth two first round picks for the Packers.

One of the TV announcers (I believe for ESPN's NFL Live) said reports are saying Mack is going after the largest defensive contract in NFL history mark (of course so is Aaron Donald).

But I think I much rather have two 1st round picks in this coming draft, especially since some have suggested that this coming draft is loaded with defensive line and defensive edge draft class... and looks like the Packers might need DL and Edge players, so the draft currently might perfectly fir the Packers needs, just like this last year was loaded with a CB draft class and the Packers needed CBs.


I think the Packers have looked at needs from a 2 year perceptive: In the next two years here are the guys going into contract years.

QB Rodgers
RB Montgomery
WR Cobb, Davis
TE Kendricks, Lewis
OT Bulaga, Murphy, Spriggs, Bell

DL Wilkerson, Daniels, Lowry
OLB Matthews, Fackrell
ILB Martinez, Ryan
S Clinton-Dix
CB Williams, House, Rollins,

K Crosby

Assuming they resign Rodgers and the Packers' three young, high draft pick CBs are able to step up over the next two/three years... that leaves OT, DL and OLB as the big needs the the 2019 draft seems to be loaded with DL and edge rushers. So it seems like the 2019 draft perfectly fits the Packers needs, so I want to keep those high picks

But it's going to be costly to resign some of the players, which resigning Mack doesn't help... and some of them are going to need to be replaced via the draft, which trading picks for Mack doesn't help. So I'll stick with the cheaper, high draft picks in the 2019 draft.

You're back peddling again. There's a huge difference between getting two Macks which was your first comment and now getting two good players which of course is more likely.
