Down to three guys???

[Mr. Scot]

That's all I'm trying to say...I think they are doing their homework but I'm certain that they know within a few guys who they ultimately will select.

Don't get me wrong...I respect Mr Scot and his opinion but I simply don't agree with him on this. A lot can change in four weeks but they have to prepare for an entire draft...not just the first pick.

And there'll be plenty of debate about it, more so at the top than the later levels.

Given the importance of this pick and the fact that there's no clear number one, I wouldn't assume everyone involved in the process is on the same page at this point.

Who knows? The differences of opinion might be pretty big.

Really if we don't trade I'd be disappointed.

Sad. It is ultimately not up to us if we trade or not, if nobody asks for it, then how could we get rid of it? Maybe throw out as many names as possible for the first potential pick and see if anybody bites.

Just because it is not up to us doesn't mean I won't be disappointed.

I will be disappointed if we can't con another team out of at least a second rounder. How's that? I don't expect a trade down, but I don't think it is completely impossible. Picking a player at #1 overall in this draft and not being able to trade will bring disappointment but I am not trying to blame anyone. A QB sounds silly to me unless there is a vet we like. Clausen could always be given a fair shot but I think he would benefit from sitting behind a vet as well.

My point is: We cannot initiate any trades. As soon as we do, the value drops too much. People want a first, a second and next years first for some reason, there is no way we would get that unless we trade out of the top 20. Best we can hope for is a top 10 team wants the #1 pick and will give us their 2nd this year as well. Other than that, this years first pick isn't worth much. So dont expect a trade, if we do, we should feel fortunate. If we don't, well if you want to be disappointed, thats on you.

Our best chance for a good trade would have been the 33rd pick that we don't have anymore. Most likely, there would have been more than one team willing to trade up to 33, so we could have taken the best offer. At #1, we will be lucky to get even one offer, and I seriously doubt it will be anything like these fantasy trade scenarios that people have been bringing up.

You cheated!!!

He just can't count

[Jerry]

1. Marcell Dareus

2. Patrick Peterson

3. Blaine Gabbert

Now you are talking sense this line up is a smart lineup

and will do the most for our team. This was thought out

using your head and not your heart based on hype.

Dareus then Peterson then Gabbert would give us

instant improvement.
