I dont think we could afford to have the 1st overall pick in 2 of the last 3 years.
The St. Louis Rams really need a QB.
Miami gives St. Louis: Tyler Thigpen, Joey Porter, Ted Ginn and our 12th overall pick.
St Louis sends us the first overall pick, and we take:
Ndamukong Suh
Thoughts???
Of course, I'd make this deal if Miami.
If I'm the Rams, I laugh and hang up the phone before you're finished proposing it.
But seriously, just to play ball...
If STL drafted Gerald McCoy (which could happen) or a QB (less likely), and Suh falls to DET...
DET does need a RB badly and we could offer 1.12 and Ronnie to move up to 1.02.
I'm not saying Ronnie is worth that much of a jump either but teams want to trade out of the top 5 badly so full price may not need to be paid.
But Ginn/Porter is definitely not enough.
And can Suh be that rare undersized NT ala Jay Ratliff in DAL who is about the same size at 6'3/6'4 about 305 lbs.?
no way you can trade up to the # 2 pick with that. what id like to do is keep ronnie, franchise him next year (hopefully he has a probowl season) and trade him, our first, and our third for wherever Mark Ingram is supose to be picked.
