Falconator: I'm 100% sure the Rams are taking Chris Long
ok......not really 100% at all - but that Hadley headline is totally bogus - nobody is 100% anything right now except that we all are 100% that the Miami Dolphins will take Jake Long #1 overall.
Don't you think sometime late tonite that somebody - Mortensen/Scheffter, etc. will "break the news" that Rams will go with "Chris Long" or Rams will make the selection of "Glen Dorsey" - and the prediction will be right? Or do you think it will go all the way down until 3:20pm easter standard time while Rams are "on the clock".
Of course Mortensen/Scheffter would say something like, "If the pick does not get traded, ___________. By now, I think the Rams know what the Falcons will or will not do with regards to a trade. From what little I do believe about Rams press conference - i do believe they are fully intent on having either Glen Dorsey OR Chris Long. They can only be assured of this with making the pick or trading with Falcons.
I still predict that the Rams make their pick at #2 - and its.....

Re: Falconator: I'm 100% sure the Rams are taking Chris Long
I agree the term "100%" seems to be thrown around quite loosely as of late. I am not 100% certain of anything, period. I don't think anybody else should be either. Especially regarding the future.
Re: Falconator: I'm 100% sure the Rams are taking Chris Long
I'm 100% sure that the Dolphins won't take their full ten minutes, so we'll get our pick sooner than 3:20, which is great!
Re: Falconator: I'm 100% sure the Rams are taking Chris Long
lol falconator, i think we all know that you want us to draft chris long, but man you gotta face the fact that there is a good chance we will draft dorsey, and you will be stuck with matt ryan!! BWAHAHAHAHA lmao, but seriously, just dont be suprised if we take dorsey
Re: Falconator: I'm 100% sure the Rams are taking Chris Long
You know Falconator, you make a clear point. I have this feeling that some of the journalists are going start saying tomorrow "Chris Long ontop of the Rams draft board". It makes perfect sense.

Rambos,
I agree that the Falcons "man" at #3 is Glen Dorsey.....However, I will say this - Thomas Dimitroff probably has worked through 50 scenarios of what could happen with picks/trades and I don't think Falcons are "married" to the idea of "Glen Dorsey or BUST".
If Rams are calling Falcons about a trade - that will be clear indication that Rams want Chris Long. I don't think that Dimitroff would give up a 3rd to move up - maybe a 4th rounder - but he may just "gamble" .
Look for the Falcons to trade out of the #3 spot if you guys take Dorsey. Falcons will try and trade down to #6(Jets), #8(Ravens) or #10(Saints) and pick up an extra 2nd rounder. At the later picks, they would target either an offensive tackle(Clady/Albert), Ryan or Sedrick Ellis. I actually like the trade down better than just sitting at #3 and taking Dorsey - of course, we have to find a partner to trade down....

We will not call, see we have the player you want in our hands.

Sounds easy but it's not.

Falcons will try and trade down
Try, key word here.
Just give up one draft pick of the 11 and you get the best defensive player in the draft.
Re: Falconator: I'm 100% sure the Rams are taking Chris Long
Good post Rambos. I think they're willing to sacrifice one of the many picks they have to move up one spot. I don't think the Falcons have alot of weapons. So Ryan will pretty much look like a bust on that team.
If anything, they can make a big improvement on defense.
Re: Falconator: I'm 100% sure the Rams are taking Chris Long
I'm a 100% sure we are taking C. Long, Dorsey or Gholston.
