St Louis at #2


stirs

Recommended Posts

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.

    • Watching those throws Drake Maye was making on a dead run threading lasers into tight coverage on the sidelines over and over in that game against the Bills... these people need to go watch that and be honest with themselves. And yeah, I'm a Heels fan but I'm specifically using Maye here because he's another young highly drafted QB not an established top tier player. Seems like a fair apples to apples comparison versus using a Mahomes or Allen.
    • why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, McCarthy and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.   
    • McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
