Trade Down? Why not Trade UP?



This class has some elite prospects that are just so enticing including Clowney, Watkins, Robinson, and Matthews

At 13, we're sitting just outside of the range of blue chip players in my opinion. I'd honestly say there are 9-10 blue chippers, and we're JUST outside of that range.

The Rams should say screw it, and trade up into the #3-#5 range with either Jacksonville or Oakland.

How awesome would it be to walk away with Clowney AND Robinson?

I think the Rams could trade up into the #3-#5 range for their #13 pick, their 2nd, and their 3rd

Yeah, the Rams wouldn't get a top safety prospect, but in my opinion, McLeod was adequate enough and we would be fine for another season with him starting. If the Rams got both Clowney and Robinson, then whenever the Rams held a 2 touchdown lead they'd be unbeatable. Why? Because the pass rush with Quinn, Long, Hayes, and Clowney would be impossible to overcome, and on offense with Long and Robinson, it would be super hard to stop Stacy.

Drafting Robinson and Clowney would allow the Rams to retain leads and hardly ever be overtaken. The only problem would be getting ahead of opponents fast.
