Rams plan to trade top pick in second round

[Alec22]

Its confirmed, that they want to.

Rams GM Billy Devaney confirmed Friday afternoon that the team is planning to trade the No. 33 overall pick.

With countless needs, the Rams intend to move back and grab more picks. "I would be surprised if we stayed at 33," Devaney said. Indiana's Rodger Saffold, USC's Taylor Mays, Notre Dame's Jimmy Clausen, UCLA's Brian Price, Arizona's Rob Gronkowski, and a number of wide receivers would be worth moving up for.

ESPN is reporting the Browns and Bills have contacted them (among other teams) which most likely means Clausen is coming off the board. I bet we can move back a few slots, pick up a 3rd and a 5th.

I could deal with the #33 and barron, to buffalo for the #41, #72, and #140.

Cle - maybe #33 for #38 and #85 (hoping haha)

Cle does have 3 3rd round picks (71,85,92)

Very possible, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Bills were moving up for Brown or Saffold. As for Cleveland, they may like Colt McCoy more. We'll have to see.

Re: Rams plan to trade top pick in second round

could see Cleveland going for Kindle aswell..tho they wouldnt have to get ahead of the Vikings to take him i guess..unless they think we might take him of course.

maybe one of the wideouts they are keen on too..

the Bat phone be glowing red right now..

A lot of reports going around the bills boards that the team has stated it is not interested in a qb round 2, but very much would like Oline help.

is Bruce Campbell out of the equation for a team to trade up for?

seemed like only a week or so ago he was projected to be taken in the top half of the 1st..tho that was usually to the Raiders if i recall correctly...so who knows..maybe he`ll go in the 4th now..

I think that's where a few of the teams are looking. He was an OT that should have gone in the low 20's. (Raiders were a joke prediction on one site that people kept repeating and didn't get the joke) He could easily lure someone to trade up at this point.

Re: Rams plan to trade top pick in second round

This worked out well for me last time, so I'm going to make non-serious predictions again:

1. Clausen falls to the 3rd round.
2. The Rams take a WR, but not one with the last name Tate.

actually, my second one is serious. I think the Rams are going to trade down and grab a wide receiver that doesn't look like the second coming of Donnie Avery.

Re: Rams plan to trade top pick in second round

i like trading down...washington, ducasse, carrington or atkins could be available even late in the second, and picking up an extra pick is almost necessary at this point with the roster we have.

Re: Rams plan to trade top pick in second round

I'm predicting even if we trade down, either Rob Gronkowski, Arrellious Benn, or Damian Williams will be available.

Re: Rams plan to trade top pick in second round

I bet we miss Tate also. I was so effing mad when we skipped Devin Thomas to take Avery but I guess that is why I'm not a football GM. :-D

There's no way this guy falls out of the 2nd round.

So that's what James Lauranitus does in the off season.
