First, New England won't trade up. They trade back and collect picks from other dummies (like us).

Second, it won't change much anyway for us. I still see MoClay going to the Bucs, which along with Blackmon are the other most logical options IMO for the Rams.

With the amount of picks New England has, they could easily move into the top 10 and draft a guy they feel can automatically upgrade such an important need.

There are a couple of other teams that could also wanna move into the top 10 for a guy like Blackmon.

Less of a financial risk now with the rookie cap, and the fact that they have to make the most out of Tom Brady's few remaining years. I think there is a good chance they actually try to trade up.

I just can't believe anyone would be dumb enough to take a RB in the top ten any longer, except for maybe the new college coach for Tampa.

It is a passing league now. Look at FA.

WR's and CB's went like hotcakes and got top money. Who was left and still on the sidelines? RB's.

Richardson could be the one who "unexpectedly" falls this year. He might do a Brady Quinn

Nah man Richardson is coming into this draft with the same sort of hype that Adrian Peterson got taken 7th overall. I think there are a lot of teams that have the passing part down, but could use another threat on the ground. Richardson is also a threat in the pass game. We haven't had a RB this good since AP coming into the draft.

Don't see why Rams need Richardson, bc they still have Steven Jackson. Believe it's just a smokescreen. If they need a rb, they'll look in the 2nd for a Miller, Wilson or Polk.

No way Pats trade up for Blackmon. They signed like 50 wrs over the offseason. Has a better chance of them trading for Floyd.

Richardson will be a Brown, guaranteed.

Richardson will be good, but he will not be a gamebreaker like AP. He doesn't have the breakaway speed.

But T-Rich doesn't have fumble, or injury issues.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
