Could the Patriots Actually Trade Up from #3 to #2 in the NFL Draft??? | The Rich Eisen Show 

I can’t wait for the “Tree pruning guy” interview in July when they can’t find anything to talk about.

I love the tree talk, i live to watch Rich ignore that window, true pro

The tree is the MVP of this segment

I think Wolf quite clearly meant trading up later in the draft. Not from 3rd overall.

The entire premise is silly. There is a zero chance the Pats move up from three. They have way too many holes to fill for them to have the luxury of trading a king's ransom to move up one slot.

I'm so glad the mentioned that tree. I was like "really?!? Right now?!"

I didn't even notice the tree coming down until Rich mentioned it. Now that's all I can watch in this clip.

Draft analysis. Pats moving in the draft. Tree pruning. This is why i watch Rich!

If New England definitely wants Maye and Washington definitely wants Daniels, then you could see them swapping picks for not that much in order to fend off another team from trading up for Maye.

The "stump"-to-Patriots" analogy is EXACTLY the type of commentary that Mr. Rich Eisen...THE GOAT!!!! LUV IT!!! 😊

I swear they plan these weird things that happen in the background as bits. Landscaper homie is a special guest on the Rich Eisen show

I think Elliot was speaking of the draft in general. There are other picks than 3rd overall

You got the Avatar tree behind you?😂😂😂

The show to watch for Round 1 of the draft will be The Pat Mcafee Show Draft Spectacular with Bill Belichick cohosting...

If Drake Maye is there at 3, I’d take him. He’s young and is a #1 overall caliber player in a lot of drafts imo. But if Maye gets taken at 2, I’d 100% trade down for as many day 1-2 assets as I could get. That team needs as many dart throws as they can get. Like, maybe the Vikings offer 11, 23, plus a ‘25 1st and 3rd to move up… I’d take that in a heartbeat. Then, grab a tackle, receiver, edge, etc with your day 1-2 picks. Eat one more bad year of football, target QB next year with a better roster.

I think Wolf was talking about the draft in general and that they could move up in subsequent rounds to get someone they want. Not sure how Eisen and team didn’t pickup on this.

came for the hypothetical, stayed for the tree

Me: I was watching Rich Eisen yesterday and it reminded me that it's time to trim our trees. Hubby: What???

Too funny...i was totally distracted by the guy with a tree branch when he mentioned it hahaha

The Washingtons held a mini combine? The actual Combine getting less and less relevant. I don’t think Wolf is talking about moving from 3 to 2, I think he’s talking about moving back for an armload of picks.

Thanks

What was Rich talking about I was busy watching beavers and lumberjacks?

The tree pruner has to do his job, Rich. It's actually an Ent getting a hair cut. :-)

Come on Rich. You know great WRs don't grow on trees!

Treemendous segment. 😂 The Eliot Wolf interview left me stumped.Pats need to draft a QB to sit under Jacoby Brissetts learning tree. They can grow the offence together.

Imagine how badly Belichick would mess that #3 pick up

Did he also mean about moving up from the 2nd round back up into the first? To maybe take a Penix Jr at the end of the 1st round if he would fall? And take Marvin Harrison Jr at 3. Or move down a couple spots to take another one of the top receivers and get extra draft capital to use in a trade up into the end of the 1st round?

It’s pretty obvious he wasn’t talking about moving up in the first round

Are they shipping in branches to throw down next to the window? It just seems there is no end to whatever tree they are messing with. Great job Rich!!

Wolf was clearly talking about other rounds...smh

What if the Pats draft Harrison at #3 and trading back up into bottom of round 1 and take Penix?🤔

Niners have done this since 2019. Meyers is the new Gm in Washington, who was with the 49ers prior (in2019 as well), is carrying over the same process.

Don't disrespect BC Lions LEGEND Nathan Rouke

No. Sit at 3 and take Drake. Trade back in and get a wr.

😂 Crazy rumors like this is why I can't wait until next Thursday so they can die down.

Nathan Rourke slander will not be tolerated

Famous excellent NFL drafter - Bill Belichick. 😂😅

As a patriots fan… that was poetry with the three

The pats will stay put and draft Maye. End of story. They aren’t trading down. Wolf isn’t that dumb

Nice tree service

An entire video based on misunderstanding. He wasn't necessarily talking about moving up from three. He meant generally at any pick

Do it!

I think he was just speaking in general terms like, they would trade up in any round if a player they really like is sitting there.

Love pro tree pruning!

Is there no path to the NFL for QBs via the Canadian Football League? Just curious.

Do they not think maybe it’s moving back into the first round for pick 12 or something like that. Pick at 3 then trade back in with future picks and take another rookie offensive player

I still believe Caleb will be a bust unfortunately, dude's throws are 99% waiting for WR to be open. He lacks ability to throw someone open which is my biggest concern way ahead of his Diva style.

Pat Mac made the steal….to have Coach B on the show during the draft….im watching

At no point did Wolf say that the "moving up" was specifically from the third overall pick, so I found it mildly infuriating that Rich and the guy were acting like that was the only place they could move up from or that it was what Wolf had said...

I think the moving up was later in the draft

They should draft that dude that walked off with a whole tree over his shoulder.

First Union center lol. Been about 20 years since that was the name!

What's going on in the back Rich?

Somebody else talking about the Patriots draft moves, other than Belechick still doesnt sit right! Especially with Wolf not looking strong in the position, stuttering around. This coming from a Raiders fan lol!

I think he means moving up in later rounds

Patriots defense was still good (at spots) last year, they need a QB

They may move back into the first round after drafting a quarterback.

Trading up from #3 is not practical. Trading up from numbers 34 and 68 might help, but what's available to trade with?

Can’t wait to wear my new McBrady jersey!!!

Shout out Ohio Bobcat legend Nathan Rourke aka Air Canada

No you misunderstood what they meant. They will take a qb @ 3. Then swap picks 34 for 9 take Rome. Along with this year's 2nd give the Bears this year's 3rd swap 4th & give them 2025 1st & 3rd.

They’re talking about moving up later in the draft

Glad you addressed the tree trimming because that’s all I could see

Nobody sees a scenario the Pats move up 1 spot for Jayden like many projected the Comanders should for Caleb? Camanders i hate to say dont seem to have a clue on who to take. It feels almost like the panthers/texans last year where honestly it feels like either or and its a guess. Washington trades down 1 spot to NE for either a 2nd this or next year. Patriots get Jayden who i think they really want. The comanders can take Maye or Mccarthy who i maintain they may just take at #2 anyway. Combibe was a long time ago and these guys for washington have had everyone in. I think its really clear.... Its not a clear choice for them much like last year the Bryce CJ was not clear cut.

I don't think he means move up in the 1st round. He's talking about the entirety of the draft.

You guys know the draft is more than the first round, right? He's obviously talking about later in the draft or if they move down, they could move up after that like the cardinals did last year.

I don't know about moving up but after Wolf's presser today I am convinced they are not taking a QB. Happy to be proven wrong that's the fun in it but he really did not seem as committed in his answers about QBs at #3 versus trading #3. "We are open for business" versus "we think this year is unique because we love all 6 QBs equally". Ya OK Elliot haha

Why would they do that? They have too many holes as it is. They should be going for MORE picks tbh.

i dont see why the pats dont just trade back, the vikings are a clear trade partner and the pats get whats basically a free rebuild for a 3rd pick they dont need

Interview Kate Abdo sometime guys

We will start the conversation at 3 firsts and 2 seconds. And that's just to get us to answer the phone, then you gotta make us a offer we can't refuse and it's not my job to tell you what that is

I mean we could. But we would have to make some sweet deal to Washington and I doubt it'll work. Commanders biggest need is a QB and I imagine they want to get Jayden Daniels ASAP

Didn’t they just say the will trade down from three?

You draft MHJ and don’t over think an easy goat

Patriots trading down this year. Business as usual

MGoBlue!

In other words they don't like Drake Maye and want to accumulate picks instead cause they need more than a QB that needs to develop anyway.

Commanders need to end up with JJ McCarthy

Lets Go commanders! Go grab Jd

Could the pats trade down to the giants for picks and Daniel jones?

Marvin Harrison Fucking Junior. That needs to be the battle cry, in the GM and talent office in downtown Foxboro right now. MHFJ. M.H. *FUCKING* J! It’s literally the best receiver prospect probably for the next 5-10 years in the draft. WE NEED a weapon. Badly. Everybody please don’t forget… Case Keenum, took Minnesota to the damn championship game, because they had weapons. Weapons are everything. If you got a QB and no weapons…it’s over

The patriots should only be considering trading down. Let Maye go to a team that is ready to support him.

They could, it would be pretty stupid, but anything is possible 😂

Noah chose 14 of each

Pats would have to believe JD and DM were absolutely equal to not want to trade up. If Bears took JD WAS #2 pick would be worth a LOT more to PATS. WAS would still listen to PATS offer. Based on your adoration of Williams, WAS could get 3, 34, 68, and 2025R1, and they would take it.

I have reached the point where I do not feel like it is smart for them to stay at 3 and pick. In this order, I believe they should 1) trade up to #2, 2) trade down, 3) stick and pick Trading up to #2: This is the future of your franchise! That carries some serious weight and I want them to put their fate in their own hands. Despite sacrificing additional capital to move up, I would feel so much better with this move than waiting at 3 because it means they are going to get 'their guy'. They are convicted enough that this player is special and to me that's so much better than sitting at 3 and hoping Washington makes a mistake. BE AGGRESSIVE and don't let someone else write the story of the next 4-5 years for you. Trading down: If they don't like one of these guys enough where they feel the need to go up and get him, why should they just sit tight and take a player that they don't think is 'the guy'? Don't just take someone for the sake of it. Oh well, not your year for a QB, it happens. They're a dime a dozen anyways. In that case, take the haul someone is willing to offer you and look to someone on day 2 / next year. I think this team has a high floor regardless of if they play a rookie QB or not. Either way, I don't think staying at 3 makes sense. You are both missing out on guaranteeing you get your guy at 2, and passing on the haul you could get in a trade. To me, this is a no-brainer that if they pick at 3 on Thursday, it is a massive mistake.

Nah they trading with Vikings

Hey, guys, if the window is as it seems, to be a constant distraction to everybody there, frost it and move on ! Thhe whole window thing is getting a bit stale -

The entire premise of this conversation proving yall have hearing comprehension issues cause he did not say move up from #3 with he is talking about being open for business in every round

Are either one of these players projected to be Hall of Famers, or "solid starter"? So why would you blow you future as a new head coach? Jayden Daniels is a farce. He is a product of LSU's offense. His skill players are other-worldly and his line is good. He is fast, yet has the worst running instincts I have ever seen by a ball carrier at the collegiate level. He throws to wide open receivers/RB, doesn't throw into tight windows, and he has ZERO career-defining wins. ZERO. Joe Burrow had three of those games in a row, in one year.

I’m picking tree guy first overall

Put some respect on Nathan Rourke’s name! Go Bobcats!

PATS moving up to #2 is entirely dependent upon price.

The Patriots won't. They'll draft the top QB Washington passes on.

what the hell is going on outside?

Sometimes Rich kinda embarresses himself... Wolf was obviously talking about moving up in the later rounds, not moving up from#3 🤦

A guy talks about moving up and the press assumes that means in round one alone. Duuuuuuumb

The guy gets paid by the branch!? 🤔

hahaha..tree!!!!!

No only because Washington is in on Daniels.
