Looking forward to the live draft on thursday night. I expect quite a few trades to go through, maybe even the odd surprise.

Can see a lot of trades too, looks like New England will be sending a 2nd to Chicago for Greg Olsen, #22 will probably be traded back for a 1st next year + a 3rd/4th this year or a 2nd & 3rd this year.

I also wouldn't be surprised if the Jets traded up to get Iupati (or hope Pouncey falls to them) then they have a replacement for Faneca for this year or next.

As usual i'm hoping for an uneventful and brilliant draft from Teddy boy. He rarely trades up and when he does he hits the mark (Clay Matthews) so i can't see us making any moves up this year. He seems to be distancing himself from taking a lineman in round 1 so we'll go BPA but more likely is we will trade down to the top of round 2 which i'd be fairly happy with.

One of the best GMs in the NFL rarely goes overspending in FA and a very shrewd draft operator.

Interesting 3 way Trade:

Denver sends a 7th round pick and Tony Scheffler to Detroit
Detroit sends Ernie Sims to Philadelphia
Philadelphia send a 5th rounder to Denver


Considering the Lions only took Brandon Pettigrew last year and Sims was one of their better LBs this is a very odd trade IMO

Schefter: Packers, Eagles have expressed interest in trading up to 10-12 range.

Yeah he's brilliant. He's not the greatest in the early to mid first round but his picks from round two onwards are usually bang on.

We don't trade up but Adam Schefter just posted this on twitter: "Packers, Eagles have expressed interest in trading up to 10-12 range. But it could depend on how board falls. Good prospects everywhere."

There must be a player we really want if we are considering moving up so high. I just can't see who would could want who will be there and in a position we could use help.

OT- Possibly but why give up so much when we could stay put and get one or trade for Gaither.
S- Eric Berry will be gone then and Taylor Mays isn't worth that high.
CB- Joe Haden is a possibility.
LB- JPP/Derrick Morgan

Those are really the only possibilities and if we are considering moving up i would think it is for Joe Haden (meaning we cut Al Harris) or JPP who will be the next Vernon Gholston AKA bust.

If we move up i hope we don't give up too much.
