Beef Jerky Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Stirring the pot, would be great to see Titans get him and all those other "trade" teams left out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) There's a lot of stuff going around right now. Yesterday it came out the Buccaneers were open to trading #1. My working theory- the Bucs want to take Mariota, but don't want to do it at #1 and would rather get a bunch of picks for someone who wants Jameis, dropping down into the Redskins-Jets range and taking Mariota. The Titans are playing the "well we might take him" game in hopes to force the Bucs to take him at #1, opening themselves up to either Jameis or trading back into the 5-6 range. Outside of Leonard Williams (and Landon Collins but too high for a safety) no one is really heads and shoulders above their position in the first (outside of the QBs). The edge rushers (Fowler, Ray, Gregory) / WRs (White, Cooper, Parker) / Tackles (Scherff, Peat, Flowers, Collins) are "which one fits your system/eye of the beholder" types. If you decide you want one of the edge rushers/tackles/WRs it looks like a year to move back, accumulate all the picks you can and be the last one to take the premier guy out of whatever group you want.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 don't all teams throw up smokescreens prior to the draft? sometimes the biggest smokescreen is no smokescreen at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Why would he need a smokescreen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malazan Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Since the rookie wage scale, I think the top 5 picks are probably worth more to trade away than drafting a player. Unless there is a Luck available, I think you trade it away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
