I BELIEVE THEIR ARE MORE SMOKE SCREENS THEN THERE ARE ANYTHING ELSE WHEN YOU GET THIS CLOSE TO THE DRAFT BUT ALL THE GM’S ARE DOING IS TRYING TO INCREASE THE VALUE OF THEIR PICK. I THINK THERE WILL BE SOME SURPRISES BUT YOU HAVE A GOOD IDEA ON WHO IS GOING TO DO WHAT. I THINK DALLAS WILL TRADE THEIR 11TH PICK BECAUSE ONE OF THE THREE RUNNING BACKS WILL BE THEIR AT 11 AND SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET A MID TO LATE 1ST A 2ND AND A 3RD IF THIS HAPPENS. I WOULD NOT BE THE LEAST BIT SURPRISED IF DALLAS DOESNT TRADE THEIR 20TH PICK TO THE RAVENS FOR 22ND PICK AND NEXT YEARS PICK IF CLAYTON IS STILL AROUND.

what do you guys think of getting brodney poole with the 20th if we stay there???

That depends in who’s on the table in that moment, something like there’s Pollack or Ware and you haven’t adressed the OLB with the 11th, do you let them go?

i think that all depends on what we are gonna play… i think a solid safety is very high priority, even more so then an olb, unless 3-4 is the way we are gonna go. if everything went right i would like to see. 11th mike williams if hes gone then merriman , or spears. then at 20th brodney poole or troy williamson. thats what im hoping for..

raiders have traded buchannon to the texans for the texans 2,3 pick…kinda makes you wonder if the texans might be another willing partner to trade down with if it means a possible future………let’s see the coments on that.

I hope we land Spears or Ware at #11 then at #20 trade down for another 2nd and get our third back. I would like to see us get Pool or Considine to play Safety.

Jerry W,
I think this strengthens the speculation that the Texans have fingers crossed and hope Cedric Benson falls to 13. As for being a trade down partner, with what army? They’ve sent all their surplus picks to Oakland.

Here are the only real trades going down.
Washington is trading into the third spot and giving the Browns two #1 picks.. Washington is getting Braylon Edwards @ #3.
Dallas will trade with Green Bay and get there #24 and #54. Grenn Bay will land a big Safety at #11.
Minnisota will stay put and have a good draft, they may trade out of their 2nd #1 pick and collect a 2nd this year and a first next.

I’m not feeling the GB trade scenario with #11. Sure we get picks but we miss out on the on the player we could use the most, SPEARS. I don’t see washington making this trade they have too many holes. if the right player is falling then i see them trading #9 to recoup the picks they gave up to denver. this way they could still get a quality corner, jason campbell and a receiver in the second. that being said. i hope no one trades them with someone else gets campbell. Minnesota is sitting pretty with the free agents that they have signed and the plethora of backs they have to use in a trade they could be the power brokers in the draft. i’m going to let my imagination run for a second. the redskins trade 9 Patrick Ramsey and there second to miami for the number two pick. Miami would have competition for Feeley and still be able to get the best player on the board at 9 or start a bidding war for one of the corners and still get a back in the second. the redskins would get edwards and campbell that gets them offense but does nothing for there defense, what do you guys think.
