What would you do with #6 and #11

and Get Suh, McCoy, or Berry

the only tempting scenario is if Bradford somehow fell to #6. I would jump on him in a second.

I was just writing this same article. Beat me to the punch jayrock. It seems that after Suh, McCoy and Berry there isn’t a lot of talent for the broncos unless we wanted to go QB or OT which we don’t. No one at 6 seems like a good pick in terms of need and value. I think that is the pick we should trade down. Teams will be wanting to jump on one of the quarterbacks or tackles or pass rushers and so we trade that pick down.

1. Sam Bradford to the Rams, they are not passing on a QB again
2. Lions: Suh, that one’s almost a given
3. Bucs: McCoy
4. Redskins: Okung
5. Chiefs: ?? That’s Berry to me
6. Broncos:……..

I would trade down, or try and work out the trade to be the 14th pick and something else

We are set for right now on QB and there is more value later in the draft. I think we would trade down with the #6 and pick up some more talent. If we pick up a QB it will be after the first round. There is no sure thing in this draft at QB.

We need DL, LB, OL. All depends on who we pick up in free agency but please no QBs in the first round!

I think Berry would be a great pick.

I think Jimmy Clausen will be a franchise QB for years in the NFL. You hear people questioning his leadership…but I have not heard anything from Notre Dame’s camp or players about that. I know it is not a popular pick on this site, but he is the most NFL ready junior QB in history. Has the best arm strength and is just as accurate as Bradford. he also played in a pro style offense for 3 years, which is huge. besides, I like cocky.

berry and dan williams. holy crap watch out!

New England gets Dez Bryant @11 and Denver gets Mike Iupati at No. 22

This is a once in a generation draft, as far as 1st round talent being available in the second. A lot of holes can be potentially filled with a bounty of picks in the middle rounds.

When the next CBA inevitably gets done, there might be an large shift back in what the top rookies are offered. The rookie cap is coming, and by being frugal now, they’ll be in a better positon for the long haul.

If you had to pick 6th and Suh, McCoy, Berry, Okung, Bradford are gone then who would you take if you had to pick in the 6th spot? How about McClain at 6 and Bryant at 11?

And I’m not saying this is the best way, but if I had my way I’d take #40, #101, and Sims and/or Branch. Those are two quality picks and a solid starting guard or solid rotational receiver that McDaniels is at least somewhat familiar with. Are we going to get that kind of ransom? Maybe not, but if you add it all up – it’s still less valuable (according to a draft value chart) than the #6 pick or even the #14 pick.

We have to wonder, what’s there for us in the Top 15 in the draft? I don’t think any of us are that sold on Dez Bryant anymore. Bradford is tempting, but may be gone by #6 and certainly would be gone by #11. Dan Williams, while I don’t particularly like him, made sense until we added NT Justin Bannan. Now we have Fields, Bannan, and Baker are there – not a lot of room for Williams. I don’t like Iupati, never did, and especially that early. McClain has lost his luster, but he’s still the safest pick – but I’d still rather trade back. But trade back with who? It’s easy for us to say “Oh, well New England or Green Bay or whoever has a need at this position – so I project this trade.” That’s not how it works. This is a very deep, not very top-heavy draft. I doubt many teams will give up an arm and a leg to trade up. Remember, it’s harder to trade back than trade up. I don’t want to be stuck with two Top 15 picks with nobody worth that kind of $$ey

LaFell who is, again, my favorite receiver in the draft is likely to be there at #40. We could get him while still using #45 on a quality defensive end, guard of the future (I’m not completely sold on Hadnot as a long term guy if we get him) or, my personal preference – grab somebody like Patrick Robinson, Kyle Wilson, or Devin McCourtey – grabbing a 1st round CB for the price of a second rounder.

If LaFell doesn’t work out, Decker and Hodge will likely be around at #101. Plus we’d have a NFL-ready player or two in Sims/Branch. Just my opinion. A little “fantasy football” that I usually make fun of.

With Champ most likely gone after next season I think the best player who will be left (Berry wont be there at 6) will be Haden… Either we trade down from this spot or we grab the best CB in the draft… I like Alphonso Smith but we still don’t know if he will ever be a true # 1 corner in the NFL.

And McClain/D. Williams at 11, whoever’s available.

If both QBs are gone maybe Haden? or Suh/McCoy if one happened to fall (doubtful)

If it fell that way, I’d be thrilled. McClain is too big a reach at 6 (he’s probably a reach at 11). Dez Bryant? Maybe…but there are some very good WRs in this draft who can help quickly. Getting two very top DBs? You bet.

at 11 I like reaching for Pouncey or if McClain is there then take him but I think he goes at 5 to KC. I do think teams will be interested at the 11th pick to move up to get OT.

Hill had 59 tkl, 2 sacks, 1FF and 2 pick I think. Personally I like McBath more than Hill I think we might be able to trade Hill to saftey hungery team. We do need a Center.

what we would do with the 11th and 14th pick. We will have drafted 4 first rounders in two years with one of them almost being top five money. I don’t see it. If he goes to Seattle, I’m thinking we get the 14th pick. I would love McClain, Williams. We either need to out score SD or completly shut them down with defense. Winning the division should be first priority. (not only priority, but first)

As the next few days (or weeks) pan out, we will get a better idea of what happens. Obviously the big DL catch Peppers is now a part of the Bears. Denver also picked up one of the more-sought after DLs on the market, Vince Wilfork was re-signed. Once a lot of DL’s get taken off the market, then one could argue that the Rams may need to address the DL with the first round (as many don’t consider this a particularly strong year for QB’s in the draft for one thing). Secondly there are potential starting-caliber QB’s in the FA, and also possible trade scenarios (Mike Vick) out there.

As the days go on, I find there to be more and more of a case to indicate that the Rams will go DL – even despite passing up QB’s in the first round for so many years. One of the most important things about picking up a QB is that he is the guy that fits your team. If it ends up being a second, or third round guy that is more of a developmental project, than that is the guy you get. You can sign a FA veteran QB to carry you through and help coach him up to starting.

The fact that Stafford, Flacco, Ryan, and Sanchez had pretty impactful rookies seasons does not necessarily equate that to being a growing trend. I would even say that – statistically – it’s just increasing the chances of another dry QB draft class (2006 anyone?)
