1) Colts take Luck as expected

2) Redskins trade with the Rams, moving up to take RGIII

3) Vikings - Matt Kalil

4) Browns - Justin Blackmon

5) Bucs - Trent Richardson

6) Rams - Riley Reiff

7) Jaguars - Quinton Coples

8) Panthers - Morris Claiborne

Coples off the board in the top 10, the next DE taken is Melvin Ingram at #20 to the Titans.

The Panthers then package their 2nd rounder plus a mid round pick (maybe throw in Jimmy Clausen to sweeten the deal) and trade with the Patriots

Moving up to 27th overall the Panthers select Whitney Mercilus

after that just go BPA and make sure you get a kicker and punter in the 6th/7th to replace the dumbfugs we have now and you're golden

:party:

lol honestly i don't think it's all that unrealistic
There is a higher chance of Kalil falling to us than Claiborne.

Also why in God's green earth would the Patriots take that trade? Especially when they have Mallet?

franchise LT falling before a CB? lol no

Patriots always look to trade down, even if they have to give a discount. I was joking about the Clausen part. They'd most likely take a high 2nd and a 4th or 5th for the 27th overall

The Kalil part was a joke. Just trying to say it won't happen. Also that deal would be nice I just can't see it happening. I have us drafting Coples.

Most mocks have going Claiborne going #3 to the Vikes but that's only because they have the Rams taking Kalil and aren't adding in trades. I fully expect the Rams to trade the pick and then the Vikings having one of the worst OLines in football and a young QB will most likely go Kalil.

After that the Bucs would be the only team I'd worry about, and I think that's most likely where he'll land. But if they fall in love with Richardson that could change.

The Bucs would be absolutely retarded if they passed on Claiborne to take Richardson.

...and then again, this is the Bucs. Making retarded moves is kinda what they do.

If the Rams trade and the Vikings go Kalil as I expect I'll be crossing my fingers when the Bucs are on the clock. Even if we lose the coinflip and pick 9th I don't see any other team taking Claiborne in that scenario other than the Bucs.

damn you tampa bay, do something stupid, it's what you're good at!

BTW I did say in the title even that this was "unlikely"

I would be ecstatic if Claiborne fell to us (would actually hate a trade down in that scenario), then we could get Markelle Martin in the 2nd (don't think there'll be any DTs there that would be significant upgrades over Neblett/Kearse/Shirley, and I'd rather have Martin than one of those tiny OLBs that are talked up in the 2nd - Spence, etc).

Not that I'd mind Spence, but not with one of our first two picks. If he's there with our 4th round pick, or if we trade down and can have a couple picks to spend on a CB/DT/S/bigger impact player and then use our 3rd pick on him.

Tampa Bay needs CB in the worst way. Barber is going to retire (or should) and the other is possibly headed to prison. RBs are becoming non-essential personnel, to a degree. Teams are keeping two or three, usually with varying skill sets.

I see no way they do not take Claiborne at #5. Secondly, if he drops to #7, Dallas will trade up to get him before we do.

The only way I think this could have happened was probably slammed when Kirkpatrick got busted for weed. TB MAY have preferred the bigger CB.

Stranger things have happened, however.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB.

      All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
