Rumors going around that St Louis may want to trade up. Would be hard to get them to package both first round picks But we should be able to get atleast a 3rd out of it.

FA: Glenn Dorsey- has not lived up to what many expected. Guy is more suited for 4-3 than 3-4 what KC has been running

1st: Johnathon Hankins- Hankins and Dorsey would really help our to DE's

2013 D:

DL: CJ, Hankins, Dorsey, Hardy

LB: Davis, Luke, Beason

DB: Norman, Godfrey, Martin, Gamble

2nd-Tavon Austin: Hope his size makes him drop to us in the early 2nd. LaFell and Gettis are servicable #2 WR and still young. Drafted Adams to return kicks but he hasnt looked as good as most hoped in his limited ammount of action. TA would push Adams in return duties, best case Adams steps up and you could have both back returning kickoffs. Let him sit under Smith, he could play 3rd wr in the slot in certain situations. Once Smith decides hes done playing TA can step right in for him.

3rd- Kyle Long: comes from good football family, good athlete, hasnt played that much in college due to playing minor league baseball so still a little raw. Sit him behind Gross for atleast a year and maybe he can replace in 2014.

4th-Joseph Fauria: 2 TE sets with Shockey looked good Cams rookie year. Fauria is a Big target who would look really good with Olsen. Good TE duo would help take some pressure off Cam.

5th- DJ Swearinger: Not sure if he will still be around for this pick if not, Travis Bond would be a good pick here

6th- Michael Dyer: not a popular pick due to off the field issues. Play behind Dwill and Stewart. If he does alright it would make cutting ties with Dwill. Played with Cam on Auburns BCS champions team.

Not a bad draft.

But what rumor have come out that the Rams are wanting to trade up? What sources? Only sources about the Rams wanting to move up is either from me or other huddlers on here by wishful thinking.

And if we're going to trade with the Rams, I agree with you that no team is going to get both their 1st rounders unless if it's the team with the no.1 pick. But not just a "3rd". Itll be Atleast their 2nd.

I love Hankins as the 1st pick. With injury to Ron, we're going to realize that we need at DT of the future and not a franchise LT.

I seen a lot of recent mocks now having Tavon as a late 1st rounder. Hopefully he's there in the 2nd.

Last, I see Swearinger as a late 3rd to 4th. He's not going to fall out the 4th in no means.

Long will be available way later IF he enters the draft. Heard he's trying to get Oregon to allow him to come back for another season.

I like TA a lot! But I don't want him before some of the other wideouts. We need a true #1 and I don't think Austin is or will be one. We need Allen, Hunter or Patterson. Then we can move Smitty to slot. That should extend his future here.

    • I don't disagree, but you're not giving our offense enough credit, and I'm not saying we would win the SB, just that we would be contenders, which we would have been. The Bengals had a horrible start to the season last year and it caused them to just miss the playoffs by one game, but had they made it, they absolutely would have been contenders in the AFC.  They had a bad defense, probably worse than ours will be this year, and you can't convince me that we don't have a better offensive roster than they had last year.   We have a Top 10 OL, two 1k rushers from last year, two 1st round WRs, one of the best slot WRs in the league, and then Coker.  Like I said, their Top 2 WRs are better than ours will be this year, but we take them in every other spot, OL, RBx2, and our 3rd/4th WRs.   If Burrow was able to turn that team into a contender last year, no reason he couldn't do the same with our roster this year.  And hell, I think our offensive roster is better than KC's last year too, and while I know their defense did a lot of the heavy lifting last year, if you give Mahomes an improved offensive roster around him, he's going to be THAT much better himself. A Mahomes, Burrow, or Allen would be able to win the South by outscoring teams.  And yes, come playoff time against an Eagles or Lions juggernaut, our defense probably costs us the game, but that doesn't mean we wouldn't at least be contenders. If Bryce can prove me wrong and his supporters here right, and be THAT guy for us this year, I genuinely think we can be a real playoff threat in 2026 once we add a few more pieces to the defense and then be a genuine SB contender in 2027 if the team keeps improving. We're the 2022 Detroit Lions right now.   Great offensive pieces, tons of holes on defense, but if things go right we'll just miss the playoffs (like they did) and then be right in the playoff hunt the next year (like they did) and then be contenders the following season (like they did when they were the #1 seed).
    • Hornets have had the worst luck of any professional sports franchise this century. Constantly drafting a slot below the generational talent, all because of the lottery done behind closed doors. It's been brutal and frankly unfair to be a diehard fan of this franchise, and I don't blame anyone for cutting out the stress.
    • We will see if there is any logic to those sort of packages. I haven't seen a ton of evidence that Evero operates that way.
