1st round: CB/LT . . .or anything else?

Perfect scenario,

Trade #18 to Atlanta for their two 2nds. Select Collins (LT) or Tony Hill. Then Cason or Justin King for your CB.Trade Sage to Arizona or Vikings for a second round. Select Jamaal Charles or Forte for your RB. The first is very unlikely as Atlanta can use those two picks per mods I've seen, but it is possible. This scenario fill 3 holes for us and leave 3,4th & 5th picks to add depth.

Realistically, I think we will sign Williams or Stewart if there at #18.

I'd be very happy if Chris Williams fell to us. If he doesn't I'd like to see a trade down and still get a good CB. As much as Roy loves Cason, I don't think the rest of the NFL rates him as a #18 pick so we could probably slide down and still get him. Kenny Phillips still intrigues me although his stock has fallen and the Texans are now two-deep at safeties that they probably won't cut.

As everyone knows, I'm tired of burning our #1s exclusively on d-linemen.

IMO, RB is a third-round or fourth-round target.

The swami looks into his crystal ball and can see a Rosenfels trade. We trade back and come out with another late second and roll into the season with a new back-up QB.

I would love to see that.

Hopefully someone new becomes interested in Sage as a starter. I think if the Vikes weren't out before they are now that they sent their first and two thirds to KC for Jared Allen. Unless they really want to take a nap until Sunday afternoon. Then again, if you're trading picks in a win-now mode, maybe a deal for Sage could be in the cards.

I have a feeling that there is a draft day trade already set up for Rosenfels. I have nothing to back it up so it may just be gas....

[Vinny]

If everything breaks right I think he is dealt. Let's say a team at the top of the draft is looking at Matt Ryans and say they don't like the other QB's early...perhaps they have already told the Texans they would make a deal for Rosenfels for their 3rd rounder (or whatever). The team that desires a QB doesn't have to force a pick and still get a guy who can start with the pick they send to the Texans. The Texans couldn't make that Gentleman's deal without having Quinn under contract, ready to back up Schaub.

This is the scenario I see. I think we will get a second for Sage. If only a 3rd, then Smith should have announced the deal when offered made rather than deny it. If WIlliams or Stewart at #18 I go and in that order. If not, a trade down with anything thrown it should get a very good player and another pick.

I do not think that Vikes are out because of Jared Allen. They gave up those picks to get a tremendous starter. A 2 for Sage who would be there starter or at minimum a great back up seems a good deal. SR contract is very good and he has two years. They need other players but a QB is a need position also.

There isn't much difference in a late second and an early 3rd.

The year of the Travis Johnson selection, we moved back 3 spots with NO and picked up the additional third, which turned into V. Morency, which turned into Sam Gado which turned into his release.

The Saints ended up with Jamal Brown, a good tackle.

we also ended up with the Geico Caveman Eric Winston.

If Williams fell that would be fantastic. I do not think we would pass him up, with as many turnstyles we have had at the LT position.
