St Louis at #2

[stirs]

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.

There's going to be a team or two, maybe more who just fall in love with this kid and hand STL a blank check as far as what they want.

STL is sitting in a beautiful spot.

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.

Well if Cleveland thinks Matt Flynn is a proven NFL QB in cold weather or any weather they have more issues than I thought.

GB is already a scary team. If they tag Flynn and trade him to Cleveland and get #4 and #36 and take Claiborne and the best defensive player available, they will be a dominant team for a long time.

GB would be stupid to tag Flynn.

$11.5 million for one year for a backup QB? Aaron will make $8M in 2012.

In addition, you franchise tag the guy...Flynn signs the tendor. What team would take on that for a player. Is he worth it? Maybe.

[TylerVagyler]

The Cardinals proved how dumb teams can be for a situation like this. They gave up DRC and a 2nd round pick for Kolb. Then signed him to a huge contract. I think a team would take Flynn if he was tagged. Teams are so desperate for QBs now and a ridiculous move like that is a result.

[g5jamz]

I'd make GB eat the salary. Maybe broker a partial payout on the contract with picks thrown in....and I don't know if that's even allowed.

Poor Miami.

please god no

[TylerVagyler]

I don't see GB getting a #4 pick for Flynn, especially considering the contract that'd be coming with him. #22 is a possibility but I see them getting Cleveland's 2nd rounder and a mid rounder if a deal were placed. And even with that, it'd be a nice deal for them.

[Woodcookedbbq]

I'm enjoying reading the Redskins fans forum of their desire to trade up for that pick. I think a lot of them will commit suicide if Cleveland gets the picks. I think they've covered every possible scenario that could happen twice.

Makes me glad we got Cam with the #1 overall pick even more.

fwiw..

AaronAloysius Adam Schefter says the Rams will be seeking a similar package to what the Chargers received for Eli Manning (Two 1sts, a 3rd, and a 5th)
