Bursting the massive trade bubbles

Bursting the massive trade bubbles

seeing all these "rumours" and trade down scenarios that have us picking up 3 picks including possibly 2 in the 1st for our 1st has had me mystified. I mean OK if it was a great year and several cut-n-dry all-pro HOF players looked to be available, maybe... maybe because you get a bidding war going.

But were talking about this year and people are actualy mentioning 2 #1 picks for moving up 3 spots... are you kidding me???? No NFL coach would be that stupid... and Saban is not stupid enough to think that might happen... if we trade down 3 picks I would think maybe a first and a 4th or 5th (3rd would be amazing). Shoot I think the Pats could probably trade up with us for there 1st and 2nd.

I will go out on a limb and say that Saban has done just enough of nothing while looking at his prospects that we will pull one of TB's 1st and 3rds for it.

Oh yah, a story that also comments on the LOW price of moving up http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/3540428?CMP=OTC-K9B140813162&ATT=5

"The price to move up won't be prohibitive, as it often is. One executive whose team has a top pick says a team interested in trading down probably would move a few spots for a third-round pick."

Listen Pal if your going to start a thread please do some kind of OBJECTIVE research instead of posting links that just validate your own opinion. You are mystified because you are not a professional anything in the NFL. You are an armchair GM, you know nothing about what Saban or any other coach is thinking. For your info, Minnesota is offering us a first and a mid-round pick to move up to the #2 spot. We are not getting two extra 1st rounders. It is idiotic to believe you could move up in the first round for one mid-round pick(hell you couldn't even do that in the 2nd round!:shakeno: ). Do you work for Mike Nolan or something you sound pretty bitter?

It was from an objective football fan of 28 years and someone with a coaches mind... and oh yah,,, I WAS EXACTLY RIGHT ABOUT PLAYER VALUE!!!!!!!!
