How in the world do they know? Do they have an indisde man at Rams park? Unless they've bugged the premises, there's no possible way that they could know all this. That is, unless a member of staff was foolish enough to divulge valuable information about what is now the most important pick in the entire draft...which wouldn't happen anyway. I think this has the words "Linehan" and "smokescreen" written all over it. Someone is going to attempt to trade up for Dorsey. This to me, sounds like the Rams baiting Atlanta.

What better way to bait a potential trade partner than to suggest that a potential move would be far from costly? There's no way the Saints could pull of that sort of trade cheaply. The last time we saw a trade for that high a pick, the San Diego Chargers recieved a bunch of picks to draft only first round QB of that class yet to win a superbowl.

Again, how do they know this?
As McFadden is likely the biggest "immediate" difference maker in this classm he is automatically the Rams top player? There's no credible source.
One thing you see repeated alot in this article is "the way we hear it". It's hearsay. Rumour. Speculative, *******ised, pasteurised, homogenised "truth" full of every last artificial colour and flavour you can think of. Personally, in a world where the truth is sacrificed as a segue into profit, I'm still struggling to believe it's not butter.
