Seriously though, is this not the draft for the 3-5 teams to strongly consider trading their picks for more picks? This draft is so deep, but there are not very many sure things either.
Absolutely. Especially considering that Jacksonville, Cleveland, and Oakland have so many needs. Trade down and load up on picks.
Al won't listen. I keep telling him he's dead and I don't believe in ghosts. He wanted Tajh Boyd, for the record.
Believe in ghosts or not, if Dickens had been writing A NFL Draft Carol instead of A Christmas Carol, a finer Jacob Marley you couldn't find were you looking beyond the late Al...
That is an astute observation, if you were an NFL network exec in 2008 looking for a holiday special.
While I agree, the issue is finding a trade partner wanting to move up. Aside from Clowney and maybe Robinson, there isn't a player with trading up for.
Worth trying, though. Who knows, a good team without a lot of holes might find it worth it if they think the piece they get puts them over the top.
Someone will ffall in love with Bridgewater and Manziel and trade up for one of them. I'm betting the texans take Bortles and then chaos as the Browns, vikings and jags go for st louis' 2nd pick
