If Mariota falls to 10 the Rams have struck Gold

Plus getting Cleveland involved could get the 2 in a bidding war in which we could trade #10 to either.

Absolutely. If they offered 12 and 19, I'd take it in a heartbeat

I wasn't meaning to limit the Rams to those 2 picks, just saying I would want both. It could be those 2 picks as well as a 2nd and a 4th. I meant it more as a starting point because consecutive picks in the 1st is a great position to be in.

Yes that's what I said read the original post. We would get 19 and 20 next years first and a second this year.

 

[27mtrcougar]

No bidding war Cleveland wants Bradford. No way the Browns are giving up their draft for an unknown quarterback. But you're right the Eagles would have to be thinking about that

Have the Jets picked up a FA quarterback yet??

Yes they picked up Ryan Fitzpatrick. So they have him and Geno Smith right now. Not great at all, but I don't really see them taking MM at #6

 

[Pappy]

I see the jets trading down for more picks if MM is there. They hold all the cards and need numerous positions. Makes sense to me. They could still take Bryce Petty in the second who I think is highly underrated.

Yeah that's not real good. That's the roadblock. It's possible the Jets could take him at six and then trade him for Bradford with multiple picks also. But that would cost the Eagles probably way too much.

Nobody other than the Browns is interested in your boy Sam. The Eagles don't even seem sure they want to keep him, if these trade-up rumors are true.

Spot on again Shopson.

Completely not true. He obviously has 1st rd value? Kelly wants him. But If MM slides to us I think he obviously would want him to fit in his system. The TRUTH is he has more value than Foles around the league even with a 13m salary attached to him or he would've just kept him and traded him.

Now you are stretching things a bit Cougar. The term exaggeration comes to mind.

 

[mutigers1fan]

Coug has a point though, multiple teams were vying for Bradford and the Rams got Foles and the better of the picks. No one was offering a lot for Foles. For whatever reason there is more demand for Bradford than Foles.

 

[bluepigpen]

Rams need to stay quiet and if he is there at 10 draft and trade or make a deal.

 

[jacobarch]

As much as I think Sammy is a shit pie, he does have value and that was illustrated by the trade that took place within the first couple of hours in FA. No one picks up that 16mil salary w/ his injury history if the person doesn't have trade value of some sorts. I do not agree with COUGs thoughts on the Draft trade idea and the trade idea is a little over the top but he does have a point

Hey Retro, Coug was right about Sam having any trade value.........

He was right about Murray wanting to sign with the Eagles because of Sam.......

So now maybe the only thing Coug is 'stretching' is our own paradigms....

I don't know about stretching pilgrims Vita but your right Coug don't lie!!

Same reason Trent Richardson is still getting paid millions

that might just be the Raiders haha

I know MM didn't have a good pro day, but I have a hard time believing he makes it to #10.

if he gets past the Jets and the Jets don't make a trade, some team is likely to trade up to get him before he gets to the Rams pick.

the dropoff between him and whoever is #3 is significant enough for teams to want to make a trade. the only question is who will that be and when do they trade.
