St Louis at #2

I would not be surprised if other teams call their bluff and they do not get the big trade they are looking for. I have read and heard that Cleveland is interested in Matt Flynn, a proven cold weather NFL QB who can run their offense. If they sign him, then they can use number 4 on the top WR in Blackmon possibly and then pick up Richardson or another good back later. I think they would like to keep as many picks as possible to rebuild.

St Louis would then hope someone else would want to move up, but why would the Redskins move? Just let RGIII fall to them. Seahawks are interested, but would ruin their organization with all the picks they would have to give up to move to #2.

FA will clear up a lot expecially if Flynn goes to Miami.

I've seen on twitter that the Redskins are ready to offer the Rams their 1, 2, and 3 round picks and a 3rd round next year to move up. Later that day (yesterday) I saw a report that Cleveland is willing to offer #4, #22, their 3rd round pick this year (or maybe even their 2nd rounder), and then another pick next year.

I highly doubt St. Louis will be picking #2. If they can get Cleveland's to offer their 2nd in the deal, they will have 4 picks in the top 37 this year, which is a very deep class. Also, Cleveland has the upper hand because they pick #4. At that spot, Kalil or Blackmon will be there (or maybe both if Minnesota takes Claiborne). If they swap with Washington, all 3 could be gone.

There have also been several reports saying that the Packers will use the tag on Matt Flynn and then possibly trade him. Although, Flynn has said that he wants to stay with Green Bay as the backup.

The Redskins are my faves to move up. I actually think Cleveland likes the talent level where they are picking. I also think they are not finished with Colt. I think instead they will look for a big play WR and a new more durable RB to replace both Hillis and though he will be on the roster next year Hardesty. I mean they could easily have a first round of T-rich and Hill/Randle or Blackmon and Wilson/ Miller or Polk. Is that better than RG3? Maybe.

I agree, I think Cleveland would be smart to stay put. If they could grab Richardson at #4, then Wright at #22, and use their 2nd round pick for the BPA on defense, I'd say it's better than RG3. Give Colt another shot with some talent around him. If things don't work out, next year's draft has a few very talented QBs as well.

      Needs to be a run heavy game. They have allowed 121+ on the ground in the last 3 games including 180 to Tampa yesterday. If they do the whole crowd the box deal like they did against us, push the ball downfield. If we can do it to the Rams and Falcons we can do it to them.

      Down year for QBs

      Rushing attempts PG are actually the 5th lowest since 1990.

      Down year for QBs

      By CRA · Posted

      team are playing lots of 2 high shell trying to take away the big plays.  But I mean, defenses being scared of QB play.....aids the run game.  I mean, don't pay the QB and have the threat....the safeties aren't going to be fixated on taking away the deep pass and can play the run and cheat on pass attempts.  I think what you are seeing is the most elite QBs are flat out being game planned for to take away the big play.  But if you aren't an elite QB and vertical threat QB.....defenses flat out aren't going to make that league wide shift on your offense.  Take a Bryce.  I would imagine most of his INTs are made by opposing safties over the course of his career (who aren't taking away the vertical but cheating to make plays on the intermediate balls)
