    I could see some teams wanting to jump into TN's spot if some names fall. Spiller etc.. Probably couldn't score a 2nd out of that deal (sans rolling Scaife into the deal) - but we would be hellaloaded with picks for the rest of the draft

    My mom got 3 tickets for the Bulls game on Thursday, for free. Her work is a sponsor of the Bulls. So me, my brother, and my Dad get a luxury box tickets that we only have to share with 7 other people. We also get to be courtside until tipoff. Im feeling some autographs :) best b-day present ever!

    No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    YES!

    NO!

    Who's gonna take McCoy that far into rnd 1? They aren't gonna jump that far up for McCoy if they don't have to. Remember, they have a terrible team and are stockpiling those picks for a reason. Dafting down from 24 would mean someone's probably moving up a short distance to grab a specific player before we or the next couple of teams do. But that guy is probably who WE want to. If they trade down, I don't see them doing it again unless there is absolutely no one there they like...but there will be.

    Think we have about a 33% chance of trading down, 5% of trading up (if Berry is still there at 10) but most likely stay at 16. Would like to see us get very aggressive...if there is someone they think is clearly better than everyone else, take him at 16. Otherwise, trade down and try to aquire a late 2nd. Take the best player of talent/need (probably DE, OLB, CB, S, OL) with late 1st. Then try to trade some of our players we can do without (White, Scaife) for mid round picks. Use new mid round pick (picks) to move 2nd higher into round. Potentially, I'd trade away our 1st next year for a decently high 2nd in this draft as well. Trade later picks for earlier picks...

    Could next a late 1, 2 top 15 2nd rndrs, 2 3rds, ect. 5 picks in the top 100 could help us address DE, LB, CB, S, OG/OC...

    i thought of a similar trade with the patriots something like

    Titans give up 1st round pick
    Patriots give up 2 2nd rounders and a 4th rounder

    Still think your idea is more plausible, although not sure about the mccoy thing.

    Here's my picks following yours, assuming we acquire AH.

    2nd rounder: Everson Griffen de(I originally wanted Hughes but he has went flying up draft boards)
    2nd rounder: Jermaine Murphy cb
    3rd rounder: Brandon Spikes ilb
    3rd rounder: Mardy Gilyard wr
    4th rounder: Rennie Curran olb
    4th rounder: Lagarrette Blount rb

    I like the idea of moving about the draft if we acquire AH, and wouldn't have a problem trading out the first rounder, although if morgan,Haden or Wilson are there we gotta take them

    The pick I wouldn't mind trading down to is the Eagles 2nd rounder at pick 37. That is a real good spot for value and if we take BPA at that spot we can get a 1st round graded player. The Eagles have two 2nd round picks. Their other 2nd isn't that far from the 2nd rounder we traded away (#55). That trade might work for me.
