Based on what we've done so far, I'd like to see us trade the #11 and #71 to Dallas for the #22 and #28 (assuming they'd want it of course). We could then get a guy like Sweed at #22, maybe a Davis at #28, and a guy like Cason, who has been slipping but shouldn't be (at least not that far), at #41. We'd be done til the 4th round, but our three areas that need addressing - WR, TE and CB - would be taken care of. I won't complain with Kelly at #11, but I'd like to see Brandon get crafty and pull something to get us another high-end player.

Re: Tradedown idea
I wouldn't mind a tradedown now, based on what happened over the last 2 days. Get the extra 3rd back and still wind up with a good player. I wouldn't draft a WR at #11. There's plenty of good hands guys into Round 3.
If we can't trade down, I'd take a talented CB like DRC or McKelvin.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit -
Re: Tradedown idea
I want us to trade down as much as we can in the 1st round.

Why do we want to take Davis in R1 when his combine performances make him a R2 selection at most?Comment

Re: Trading out of Round 1 entirely: An option?
Maybe our 11th (1250pts) and 72nd (230pts) to the Cowboys for 22 (780pts) and 28 (660pts). That leaves us with 22, 28, 41, and 71.

Re: Tradedown idea
As you can see from me quoting myself, I used to agree. But, now I want DRC. A lot. So, I would rather stay put. We addressed many glaring needs already."Heck, now I am glad his overrated arce made the pro bowl, else we would have only got a 3rd." ~ yordad

Re: Tradedown idea
Scouts Inc. has him as the #29 rated prospect, he's the clear frontrunner at his position, and we need a quality tight end. I figured those were reasons enough to take him at the end of the 1st round.Originally posted by kernowboyComment

Re: Tradedown idea
Props given... I guess you saw what I saw, that if we wanted to trade down, Dallas was the most likely candidate. Any other option would most likely include next year's picks, and while I'm not against that, I'd rather get them all now if we could.Originally posted by yordadComment

Re: Tradedown idea
I would love that trade with Dallas. If we could pull it off here is what I would do...
RD-1 (22) DE Quentin Groves 6'3" 260 ran a 4.52! Relief for Schobel!
RD-1 (28) WR Devin Thomas 6-1. Weight: 215. Combine 40 Time: 4.32.
RD-2 (41) CB/S Reggie Smith, Oklahoma Can return kicks, and play Safety or CB!
RD-3 (71) C Mike Pollack, mean and nasty! Just what we need!
RD-4 (110) Either FB Owen Schmitt or TE Jacob Tamme denpends on FA
RD-5 (135) OT Shannon Boatman, Florida State Height: 6-7. Weight: 324.
RD-6 (170) DT Jason Shirley, Fresno State Height: 6-5. Weight: 330.40 Time: 4.98.
RD-7 (201) RB Cory Boyd, South Carolina Height: 6-0. Weight: 213.
RD-7 (206) CB/S Roshaun Fellows, Tenn. Height: 6-0. Weight: 185 40 Time: 4.35.Comment

Re: Tradedown idea
Sounds great.
But why would Dallas want to move up to #11? Is there someone on their radar at 11 nobody knows about?Comment
