[thunderraiden]

What if Luck declares and we trade away the #1 pick? What would you do?

[SorthNarolina]

Probably drool at all the ammo we would pick up by trading the pick. But also be very nervous about it biting us in the ass.

Either way I think it would work out because if we had some defensive tackles and some offensive guards it wouldn't matter who is at QB.

Hope Clausen was just playing stupid for Fox.....

*fingers crossed*

That has been Foxy's philosophy....QB not that important.

Pretty much this.

If we could pull of a "Walker to the Vikings" type trade I'd refuse to wear pants for a week.

I think our guards have been pretty offensive this year.

And I agree - that pick would probably command a pretty steep price, and I'd bet that we would hit on more of those picks than miss.

if we traded the pick then we build around Clausen in my book. Get a reciever, a defensive end, an offensive guard, you know stuff like that and build around him. most likely, we would still have a high enough pick to take AJ Green, so he should be one of the first picks and then (if they are smart) they got a 2nd round pick in the trade and use that on the best offensive guard or end on the board, maybe Michael Pouncey falls into round 2

I'd throw up in my mouth & shout expletives. After that, if we got some nice picks I'd be content but weary of it being the dumbest decision ever. Hope for the best either way though

[Kurb]

Harbaugh would never do that.

[Mvp2014]

If the trade was lopsided I wouldnt be AS mad but if it was intended to save money and let Jimmy have another chance.. I dont know, that would blow

[Lumps]

As long as we take another QB prospect in the first I wouldn't mind...but it is hard to say, if Luck is worth the #1 pick than he is worth the pick. I guess it all depends on what we get for giving it up for. More picks might help the team depending on who is available.

unless you are the pats, this is what usually happens. teams that get a butt load of picks usually end up squandering them.

in this case we would end up missing out on a chance to have a great QB here which would be the ultimate fail.

it would make it even worse if we passed up on newton as well and felt like we could go with one of the QBs we have here already.

I would rejoice that the organization finally made a correct decision. Because how smart is it to hand over 50mill and the keys to the car to someone who just started passing the ball this year? Last year all he did was hand it off to Gerhart

[Sheldon Wolowizard]

I'm not at all convinced we are going to keep the #1 pick and it's not because of the chance to get more draft picks. The big cat has been trimming the payroll and having to #1 pick doesn't seem to be in line with the approach Richardson has taken over the past year. I see us trading for a 10 -15 in the first and possible a 1st next year.
