My thoughts on the #2 overall pick

[jamze132]

I wonder if STL would be interested in trading Bradford and then keeping the #2 to select RGIII.

If we were to trade our 1st and 3rd to them for Bradford, we both make out like bandits.

[clumping platelets]

Stay at #10 and take BPA at position of need.

1) Indy takes QB Luck
2) Wash (STL) takes QB RG3

now if Minn takes Blackmon at #3

I'd be all over Cleveland for Kalil or Coples

[Night Train]

I expect the Bills to sit at #10. LT Martin of Stanford would be my choice there.

But if the Bills are actually thinking of packaging picks for a blockbuster trade, then the only player worth doing it for is RG3. No other player in this draft or existing player like Bradford is worth it.

You don't think Sam Bradford is worth our #10 pick?

I would trade the 10 pick for Bradford in a New York minute.

[DraftBoy]

They have already said they will not trade Bradford.

Kalil is going 3 to MIN.

That is a Triple win for St Louis then.
They would get rid of Bradfords ABSURD contract.

[TacklingDummy]

No thanks, I don't want Bradford. If I was the Rams I'd want to dump Bradford and draft RG3. That kid is going to be a star, especially on turf.

[k-oneputt]

Don't worry about Bradford.

There is no way Ralph is taking on that contract.

His contract wouldn't be absurd to the team inheriting it. The Rams already paid significant money up front, including an $18M option bonus last year. The team trading for him would inherit 4 Yrs/$48M left on the deal, which is not that bad for a good starting QB especially one with Bradford's upside. St. Louis would take a significant cap hit if Bradford is traded, so it makes little sense for them to deal him.

Bradford is a good QB. People forget the promise he showed when he was rookie of the year. He has proven he has an NFL arm and can read defenses. The real question left for him is if he can stay healthy, although it would help him significantly if the Rams invest in improving their OL. He has a live arm and can make all the throws on the NFL level.

Even with all RG3's talent, he is still an unknown as an NFL player. I like him a lot, but Bradford has shown he can play in the NFL. It is a no-brainer for St. Louis to keep him and trade the pick.

OLs may not sell tickets - but the players they protect do.

[CleveSteve]

#10 & #41 matches up almost perfectly for that value (you win by 10 pts). If Luck, RGIII, and Blackmon are gone, Heckert would have a tough decision to make between Claiborne and #10 + #41. Kirkpatrick/Jenkins + Wagner/David/L. Miller/D. Martin has got to be tempting v. Claiborne/Richardson.

but the cap hit is like $14 million dead space

Anyone who doesn't want Bradford is crazy.

I would easily give up 2 first rounders for him.

The Rams shut the possibility of trading Bradford down as soon as the #2 trade rumors began. I like Bradford, but if I had to choose between him and RGIII, I'd take RGIII simply because of the coaching that is in place here. RGIII fits Gailey's style of offense better than Bradford does in my opinion. Of course it doesn't mean I think RGIII is better. But Bradford is a more conventional QB, and Gailey seems to do better with gimmick players as his history with QB's has shown.

His body of work so far in the NFL isn't very impressive. I guess we'll have to wait for him to get a better OL. I don't think BUF fills that bill unless they plan to use him like they use Fitz.

The old trade value chart is dead with the new CBA.

Bet the farm to get to #4 for Coples?

No thanks.

[CleveSteve]

So you're saying #10, #41, and #72 is the price?

I doubt Buffalo would pay that for a guy who may fall to 10 anyways. But what do I know.
