St Louis at #2


stirs

New trade idea. Cleveland moves back to 9 in exchange for next years third and this years fourth then packages those picks with next years 1 and this years second. We end up with Claiborne for this years fourth and next years third....deal?

NO! Claiborne not THAT much better than other CB to give up any picks

I've seen on twitter that the Redskins are ready to offer the Rams their 1, 2, and 3 round picks and a 3rd round next year to move up. Later that day (yesterday) I saw a report that Cleveland is willing to offer #4, #22, their 3rd round pick this year (or maybe even their 2nd rounder), and then another pick next year.

There have also been several reports saying that the Packers will use the tag on Matt Flynn and then possibly trade him. Although, Flynn has said that he wants to stay with Green Bay as the backup.

I think the tag on Matt Flynn is unlikely. $14 million for a reserve QB? Even if only to trade, it drives up the asking price when you have to compensate GB first before dealing with the contract negotiations--a tag would begin talks in the $10 million range. RG III would be cheaper.

If I were the Rams, I would take the Brown's offer the second it is made.

Here is how I think it will work:

Peyton to Miami

Flynn to Cleveland

Washington takes Tannehill

Seattle contemplates moving up, but cannot afford it.

St Louis takes Kalil at 2

Not a chance. Someone definitely pulls the trigger and moves into the #2 spot to take RGIII. Oh, how I wish we had lost a few more games this past year. The compensation for trading that pick will be huge.

    • I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/
    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
