Mock Draft With 2 Trades and a Different Kind of Twist

by Fuzzdog13 on Feb 4, 2012 5:19 PM CST

Heres a mock draft that is a little different:

Trade #1- Cleveland Browns end up winning the bid for Robert Griffin III, but it cost them a lot. They give up their two first round picks (4,22), their 2nd round pick (37), their 4th round pick (100) and their first round pick for next year.

Round 1 pick #4- WR Justin Blackmon OK State - Blackmon will end up being a huge threat and I'm guessing Kalil will be off the board. If the Rams resign Lloyd or sign another big time WR free agent then we would have to big threats down field. Sam Bradford will be pleased.

Trade #2- Since the Redskins are out of the competition for RG3, they decide to trade down. The Rams want to pick up some more top talent. We give up our other 1st round pick (22), next years first round pick, our 4th round pick from the browns (100), and our third round pick (66). It's the best they can do and we get a steal.

Round 1 pick #6- RB Trent Richardson ALA- We get our new RB of the future. He is a top tier running back and will be a perfect replacement for Steven Jackson. He is a hard runner with a lot of skill.

Round 2 pick #33- OLB Zach Brown NC- Zach Brown is the best OLB in the draft and will fill a huge void in the Rams defense. He could and probably will be a starter right away.

Round 2 pick #37- OT Mike Adams OSU- I can definitely see Adams falling out of the first round and if he does the Rams will pounce all over him. He's the 4th or 5th best OT in the draft and he would be able to strengthen a weak offensive line. Roger Saffold is a perfect example of good offensive linemen being picked in the second round. Lets hope that happens again

Round 4 pick #96- DT DaJohn Harris USC- A young new face to go on the defensive line. Hopefully with some training and time he can become a player that is able to healthfully contribute to the Rams season.

Round 6 pick #160- OG Brandon Brooks Miami (Ohio)- Another young offensive linemen. Lets see if anything happens with him. These late round picks are basically shots in the dark.

Round 7 pick #192 -K Randy Bullock Tex A&M- Someone to replace Josh Brown. This guy has a big leg.

Please tell me what you think.

Cost is to high in the Redskins trade, but I like the way you think! :-)

doesnt even make sense

That is stretching it abit.

Holmgren isn’t going to give up the farm, but i do believe he’ll give a decent offer.

by T.Hill on Feb 5, 2012 2:08 PM CST reply actions

Yes, a move up two spots from 4th to 2nd would cost a 2nd round pick and if Holmgren felt extra generous a 4th. Thats about it. There will be no giving away the farm by Cleveland, so you can forget about that.

A bargain is something you don't need at a price you can't resist....

While that trade sounds nice...

I seriously doubt anything that optimistic would happen. Maybe their firsts this year, and a 3rd or a 2nd next year, but that’s probably the max. No way they’d give up 3 first round picks, a 2nd rounder, and a 4th. They have way too many needs to give up that many picks.

Would never happen

The rams have to many holes to start trading picks away. If that scenario happened I would keep the picks and do this……

- Blackmon
- Mike Adams
- Zach Brown
- . Jerel Worthy
- Jayron Hosley
- Chris Polk
- Ben Jones

I like this draft BUT

There is no way Zach Brown last until the third round, Jerel Worthy until the 4th round and Chris Polk until the sixth. All of those guys should be off the board before the end of the second round.

And thats just round 1-4

I'm here to tell you...

….No way Cleveland trades both their 1st rounders. Just not going to happen. I would love for it to happen, but it won’t. I think there’s every chance they can stay right where they are at and get their guy. Heck, move up one spot and toss in a 4th-5th round pick to MN just to make sure someone doesn’t trade up to #3 to get him.

Hell, what do I know. I sure hope there’s a bidding war….

by Beelzebubba on Feb 6, 2012 11:25 AM CST reply actions

Funny, but there won’t be a bidding war for RGIII from Cleveland. If anything, we would trade him away from the #4 spot, but just as I said, no ones gonna bet the farm on him. I just hope someone like Dallas wants martin or Reiff really bad enough to trade up to the #4. We are not looking to trade up at all.

Trade?

I’d rather keep Colt McCoy than trade 2 first rounders and those extra picks for RG3. Browns are sitting pretty at #4, and they can end up with either RG3, Blackmon or Trent Richardson. RG3 and Andrew Luck is no sure thing. If I were the Rams, draft Kalil and sign a #1 receiver and re-sign B.Lloyd. Browns can still end up with RG3 and get either Kendall Wright, Alshon Jeffrey or M.Sanu at #22.
