For The People That Think Claiborne Will Fall To Us At #9

Recommended Posts

If Cleveland chooses Tannehill, Tampa will have a tough choice between Richardson or Clairborne. If they choose RB, then he could slip BUT Jacksonville and Miami would love to trade down and I am sure there will be teams below us that will give up their 2nd rounder to move to #7 or #8 & snag him.

I give it about a 10% chance he falls to us at 9.

What might be almost as good would be Richardson to fall to us at 9 and KC at 11 gives up their 3rd to us to get him or Cincy at 17 gives up their 2nd to us to get him. I would love to trade down.

Just like Gallagher pointed out, it's possible.

It doesn't necessarily has to be 8 offensive players though. Some teams may value DE's higher than DB's, therefore passing on Claiborne for Coples or Ingram, which is the key.

What I don't get is the excitement for trading down. Especially if there's a talent level drop off.

i.e. All the folks that wanted us to draft PP7 or Dareus last year, and pick up Ponder or Mallet in the 2nd.

Whatever i want Floyd

Floyd or Blackmon, one of those two guys will be available...gimme one of those, DT will take care of itself with the returning players or Poe. There are too many possibilities to fall in love with any one player at 9. It is a top 10 pick guys. Rivera won't let Hurney go off on some AEdwards tangent.

    • I see them using Brooks in the passing game a good bit even early.  
    • If Brooks is fully healed,and they think he is, then we should be better.  We upgraded center and Hunt will be back.   At RB, Rico will turn 28 next month. Hubbard turns 27 next month.  Brooks turns 23 in July.  If Brooks pans out, he was a better college RB than either Rico or Chuba. He has not been taking a beating for 2 years--so if the knee holds, we could have something.   This is what it says about RB: Career Average: Running backs have the shortest average careers in the NFL, lasting just 2.57 years on average. The Peak: Most running backs reach their absolute peak performance around age 25 or 26, with nearly all peak seasons occurring before age 29. The "Age 28-29" Cliff: Statistical data shows a notable 15% to 25% drop in per-game fantasy and offensive production as backs transition from their age-28 to age-29 seasons. Very few running backs sustain elite production past age 30.
    • I’ll give him that. I love his belief in the trenches being where games are decided. Because that is also my belief.  And he is not fooling around he jumps all over a goal. Fix the OL. Well it cost but he fixed it.  And fixed it again this year while still getting pieces for the defense.  He has made a couple of mistakes but just keeps swinging after a miss until he gets something done.
