Hey people, what about this scenario. I dont think either TH or wM are going anywhere this year. Having said that, one of them WILL be gone after this season as the result of some kind of trade. I think we take this year's first rounder and next years either 1st or 2nd and trade those 2 picks (doesn't even have to be Detroit, as long as we're ahead of Pitt) to move up and take Philip Rivers. After trading one of our RBs after this year, we'll get at least a 2nd rounder back, possibly a 1st rounder. And, we have our franchise QB of future. If we do trade to Detroit, they get Steven Jackson at #13.
The more I think about it, the more I think we're going to move up. That's exactly why the Bills haven't signed Kordell yet. They're holding out to see if they can get either Big Ben or Rivers. If we get one of them (especially Rivers since he seems to be more prepared to step in right away), we won't need to sign such a high profile backup like Kordell. A guy like Doug Johnson could come in and be our #3 with the rookie being #2.
