Watch this:
This will be done the night before the draft:
Arizona wants a QB so we trade down from 10 to 13 and get their First Round pick (#13) and Second Round pick (#45)
Now that we have #13 and #45, we trade down with Denver at #20 and they give us their #20 pick and their Second Rounder #51 and next year's Second Rounder (probably #44 again).
So now that we have #20, #45 and #51, we still have our own Second Rounder at #44 and next year's Second Rounder from Denver at #44.
One more move down: Trade our #20 pick from Denver to Oakland (because they want one of the RB's) and we take the Raiders #24 and their Second Rounder #56 and next year's Second Rounder (probably #56 again).
With this collection of picks (#20, #44, #45, #51, #56) we approach San Fran sell them on the idea that we don't want a DE or a QB so if they want to trade with us, we'll give them #20, 44, 45, 51, and 56 for their second pick. They are in re-build mode and would love to stock their team with a deep defensive draft. They bite.
Now we have the Second Pick overall.
Then we re-structure Dareus and approach Cleveland. We tell them, they can have Dareus at a re-negotiated contract and Tyrod Taylor for pick number One. They need a stud on the DL and are in search for a vet QB (my sources told me they were hoping to get Tyrod before he signed with us).
They jump at the chance to have Tyrod and Dareus is a bonus. We get their First Round Pick.
Now we have Picks 1 and 2....which we can either use or sell off for later picks.
Thoughts?
