Report: Browns unwilling to deal #22 to Rams

If the Rams can't get what they want in a trade down then I think they will take Griffin and try to deal Bradford

It might not be the fast turnaround they hoped for but rg3 is by far the best value at #2 and Fisher will play the long game. He has no tie to Bradford
 
I think they turned off a lot of teams by asking for a 1st overall type of package for the pick. The fact remains Griffen isn't the top pick in the draft and isn't going to bring a 1st overall pick package. These teams are not run by idiots. They know supply and demand is fairly balanced this off-season and teams will offer a fair package - just not an out of the stratosphere kind of package.

to me, the question is how far do the Rams want to slide? and can a team lower than #8 come up with a package good enough to still get high quality players?
imo, Cleveland is realistically competing with Washington and maybe Miami for the pick and they should wait to see how free agency plays out. if the Redskins and Dolphins get Manning and Flynn, the Rams lose their leverage

With all the holes they have, lol. Highly doubtful, no one is going to eat that 6 year, $72 million contract Bradford got.

Griffins is best player available at #2 by far. If nobody wants Bradford for the money then what makes you think Fisher does ? (apart from the meaningless public declarations). As I said Fisher has no ties to Bradford and the money the Rams paid him already is gone - you can't get that back. If Bradford isn't elite then passing on rg3 is just compounding the error

What type of success do you envision RG3 having a rookie? Just curious.

If the price sinks low enough, I wouldn't discount the jest making a run at it with a deal that includes Revis and Sanchez as a backup for fragile Bradford.

No way would they give up Revis. Nobody is that dull.

Not the same poster who made the comment about RG 3 being the best player available at #2 but to answer your question about what type of success do I see RG 3 having as a rookie, would be the same success Cam Newton had as a rookie, if not better then Newton.

Yea I don't know why they would waste picks when at 4 they are going to get one of the 5 surefire 100% studs of the draft...

They other thing is that they should stay put and Griffen will fall to them if the Rams can't trade out because they are too aggressive...

The Vikings aren't going for QB...

Vikings hold the cards, they could trade with Redskins or could force the Browns to swap picks to keep the Skins from RGIII. They are sitting in good shape right now. They know the Rams wont take RGIII so force them to pick at #2 and then deal with the Vikes. The 3rd pick will cost less than the second. Vikes would still get their presumable pick at 4, knowing the team picking 3 will take RGIII

I think signing Peyton Manning is the best way to go, we would be competing for a super bowl in 2012. I am tired of waiting. But if we decide to go the way of the draft...
I am starting to see it the same way. Normally I would never trade that kind of price for a player, but IMHO, RGIII is worth the gamble. If we can get him for no more than this, I think I would roll the dice.
2012 - 1st(exchange) and 3rd
2013 - 1st and 3rd
Basically, we would pay a 1st, and 2 3rd round picks to move up 6 spots for RGIII.

agree 100%. if we could end up basically stealing the second pick that would be fantastic. honestly, there is no price you can put on a franchise type of quarterback. If RG3 turns out to be that guy, I would trade the whole damn draft for him.

And so would I
 
i think the Vikings will be the key if the Rams are stuck with the 2nd pick. If thoer were more LT prospects in the top 10 we could possbily move down and pick up RG3.
 
I don't get why everyone is guarding these draft picks like they're gold. Prior to this regime, we have one 1st or 2nd round pick still on our roster (Vernon Carey - 2004)...ONE!!! With that said, if you can get a player who could even "potentially" be a franchise QB, I would be willing trade both 1st and 2nd round picks from this year and next, if that's what it took. Looking at our draft history prior to 2008, we wouldn't be giving up anything; relatively speaking.
