Re: Nice Article on How Peterson could fall to us
I would be shocked if Peterson fell to us at #12 but if he did.........

Re: Nice Article on How Peterson could fall to us
If Cleveland does pass on him (which I personally don't think they will unless they trade out of that #3 spot, especially since they traded Droughns), what would it take pick-wise to move up to #6?
I'm assuming here that the Bucs (with Cadillac on their roster and Calvin Johnson in their sights) wouldn't take him. Neither would Arizona since they have Edge, nor the 'Skins since they have Portis and Betts. The next team I could see taking Peterson is the Vikings, so if we were entertaining thoughts of trading up to get Peterson, the 'Skins spot at #6 seems to me the most logical. So again, my question, what would it take to get up to that #6 spot?Infrequent poster, daily visitor.

I dont know the answer to your question, Im just hoping that Minny is happy with CHester Taylor, cuz that would be kick-ass.Originally posted by pepperkornComment

Re: Nice Article on How Peterson could fall to us
That got me thinking... if he slides to Minnesota, a new development opens up. If the Vikes just can't pass on the guy, they may look to move Taylor. Our first 3rd round pick should be enough to pry him loose. Now he's a guy I'd actually be willing to take a chance on as a feature back.Originally posted by Joe Fo ShoComment

I don't think we'd move up. We need every pick to count and we could pick up Brian Leonard in R2Comment

Re: Nice Article on How Peterson could fall to us
I think the Texans would be a threat to take him. If he did slip we would have to trade up with Minnesota who could still grab a WR or DE at the 12 spot.

Re: Nice Article on How Peterson could fall to us
i doubt that the Texans will grab him. i know that Ahman Green is getting old and has fallen off alot but they still have a guy they like as a backup in Wali Lundy. that and they will probably wait until next season to draft a franchise back. next years RB class is pretty deep and i doubt they paid Green a decent chunk of change just to backup a rookie. just my opinion.Comment

If the Texans don't take AP, he's ours. And I'd definitely buy season tickets if we got him.Comment

Re: Nice Article on How Peterson could fall to us
He's going to Cleveland at 3...
If by some miracle he doesnt, we'd have to move up to at least 6th to get him, and thats too costly, becuase its doubtful we'll add anyone else via FA that matters before the draft, leaving us with far too many holes to fill.Comment

Re: Nice Article on How Peterson could fall to us
Cleveland has to many holes to fill and they signed Jamal Lewis to hold them down until next years draftComment

Re: Nice Article on How Peterson could fall to us
Cleveland is drafting AP. The only way they don't is if they trade down. And if they trade down, you can sure as hell bet, whoever moves up to their spot is doing so to take AP.
The only way cleveland may stay at 3 and draft someone else is if JMarc is available. Owner Randy Lerner is allegedly enamored with the guy.Comment

Not a bad idea at all, although I'm still sure that Clevland takes him. J Lewis signed a 1 year contract slightly above vet min."It's not whether you win or lose; it's how you play the game."-Vince LombardiComment
