I say we trade 4/32 for 2 draft Derrick Williams. Trade the Exception for Richard Hamilton and #8 and get Alec Burks.

Justin Blackmon WR Oklahoma State

If we go above .500 this season what's he gonna say then

I feel like we're gonna go DE and WR in the 2nd round. 4th round hopefully we get Herzlich or Matthews and then another DE. 5th round OT. 6th round another defensive lineman and Greg McElroy. 7th round Brandon Saine

I feel like Ayers is going to NE. Bills and Bengals will select a QB. Broncos i could see going with Kyle Rudolph out of Notre Dame. And then we get to us at #37. Heckert spoke highly of Bowers once again last night in the press conference so ill say we take Bowers at #37

Schefter just reported on Mike and Mike that the league year would officially began on Monday so it doesnt make the draft too crazy

MINNEAPOLIS -- The federal judge who lifted the NFL lockout has denied the league's request to put her ruling on hold.

U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson wrote late Wednesday that the NFL "has not met its burden for a stay pending appeal, expedited or otherwise."

The league wanted Nelson to keep the lockout in place while it appeals her ruling, arguing that starting free agency and other football activities before there's clarity on the status of this case could be damaging to the league's competitive balance and general operations.

Players wrote to the judge earlier Wednesday to argue against the league's request for a stay, contending that a continuation of the lockout harms the NFL as much as it does the players.

And as it pertains to the new league year

Judge ordered NFL to start its league year immediately, but said no team is obligated to sign free agents. Trades in question.

This isnt too bad of a move, we dont have a veteran presence for the young receivers. I feel like Steve Smith could be a good target for McCoy

Along another trade talk line, the Panthers have been reported to want to get back into the 2nd round (since they dont have a 2nd round pick)http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=6438623. they own the 1st and the last (a compensatory pick) picks in the 3rd round.

Purely hypothetically, would you give the panthers #37 (our second round pick) for their 2 3rd round picks (#65 and #97), and their 4th and 5th round picks (98 and 132)?

This is the compensation that adds up on the draft point value chart that would make sense. (http://www.sportznutz.com/nfl/draft/draft_point_value_chart.htm)

Just curious...

sounds like something interesting and it wouldnt surprise me if H&H would do that

Tomorrow, if she makes her decision and rules in favor of the players again and lifts the lockout. Would that allow free agency and trades because that would make the draft way more interesting than it already is

Essentially, this article says that the Redskins don't even have the assets valuable enough in this draft to trade up to #6 with the Browns to grab Gabbert or Locker.

What would you want in return for the Browns to move down to #10? They don't have a Round 2 pick. How about next year's #1, plus like an additional 5th or 6th rounder in this draft.

Would you make that deal?

To recap: Browns trade #6 to Wash. Get back #10 this year and next year's #1 and a 5th or 6th rounder this year? Deal?

Make a 4th rounder plus #10 and 2012 1st rounder and we'd have a deal

Let's say this deal is real. Im a little hesitant to wanna do this. The only problem is what if somebody gets hurt (McCoy or Hillis) and our season goes downhill. We lose our 2012 1st round pick and miss out on talent.

But i like it, especially if we get Peterson at #6 and then hope Julio Jones is there at #12

I read that Dallas is also trying to trade up to draft Von Miller.
