We draft Luck #1 overall and trade Clausen for a 2nd rounder (or trade him for a 3rd and trade up). Who are you looking for in the 2nd round?

Obviously there's a chance a slated top 10 pick drops but I'm just going with players generally thought to have a good chance to be available in the 2nd.

Kyle Rudolph, TE, Notre Dame Watching tape on Michael Floyd and some old tape on Clausen to compare his college vs. pro games the guy that stood out to me more than anyone was Rudolph. This guy just makes play after play, I really think he'd be a steal in the 2nd.

Ryan Broyles, WR/PR, Oklahoma Reminds me of a Welker/Shipley type. Very consistent hands, can line up in a variaty of ways, great at manipulating defenses and finding holes. Overall, ultra-productive and very hard to cover and a consistent chain mover. Again, I think he'd be a steal in the 2nd and end up better than a Julio Jones and Michael Floyd who will likely be taken ahead of him.

Mike Pouncey, OG, Florida His twin brother is tearing it up for the Steelers and he looks like just as good of a prospect. Teams are reluctant to spend a 1st on an OG so he could very well fall to the 2nd. Has the potential to be a perennial pro-bowler and also fills a huge need.

Ras-I Dowling, CB, Virginia 1st round talent but this year is very deep at CB so he could fall to the 2nd. Very aggressive and physical corner, would be an immediate upgrade over Marshall.

Rudolph or none of the above...

If Drake Nevis is there, i would want him...

Kyle Rudolph has top 10 talent, but TE's arent taken in the top 20 hardly, and he suffered an injury(something to do with his hamstring) and had surgery and was out the rest of the season. 6'6, 260, 4.60 40. a really good blocker and an even better reciever

I was just listing the guys I would be targeting in that area, didn't necessarily mean you had to pick from just those guys. :P

Even if we don't trade Clausen we can easily move up to a mid 2nd for our 3rd and 4th rounder (considering they will likely be at the top of each round). Any other ideas for good players that might be available there I'd like to hear em.

No, #1 pick take A.J. Green. He is the #1 wideout in the class even WITHOUT Mathew Stafford at QB. They will have good QBs in free agency such as Vick or Mcnabb who we can pursue. With a decent QB and 2 STUD receivers in Smith and Green (like we did with Jake, smitty, and moose, except green has more potential then moose) we should be fine.

Vick isn't going to be available. McNabb has a huge contract and if he gets cut it means he really bombed out the rest of this season.

So, who is the decent QB?

Why can't we go after a decent vet WR and draft a good QB?

mcnabb is done or he stays with the redskins. not someone you build a new offense around.

vick won't be a FA.

there will be crap choices for QB in FA. you want a guy that is going to lead this team for years? you draft him. you draft him this year.

if this group of wideouts don't get the job done and we stink up the joint again, then we draft a better WR than green or julio in the next draft (that would be alshon jeffery).

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
