    This sounds about right. I wouldn't want to drop out of top 5. Ramsey is who I want us to get, and would hate for him to go to Jax.

    I think it depends a LOT on how ready Jerry Jones is to move on from Romo. Is Romo just another Jake Locker in his eyes? Is he going to be another Kerry Collins Chris Chandler, or Matt Hasselbeck...intended to be a veteran fill in while the Cowboys gradually develop their next franchise QB? Will Jerry Jones just bring RGIII in and kick the tires, to see if a change of scenery is what he needed to get back to being a franchise-level QB?

    SF hiring of Kelly tells me they aren't ready to move on from Kaepernick, yet. So, I don't see them taking a QB in the 1st. What about Philly at 13. They'd really have to all in on Jared Goff, and I doubt they will. If they take a QB, it will be either Lynch, Wentz or Cook. The Rams will have to settle for one of those guys as well

    I'm in the same boat, in terms of this team needing more picks worse than we need to stay at No.1 and take Tunsil. I'd be fine with Tunsil, seeing that he would be the best option to solidify this OL, and know that Marcus isn't going to take a heavy beating going forward.

    But, to be honest, I'd be just as happy if we traded back to Philly or the Rams, and take Ohio State's OT Taylor Decker, but we'd have to throw that value chart out the window and just take what we could get, if we want to move out of the No.1 pick. We might get a 2nd Rd and maybe 1st or 2nd next year, but not much else

    I think the only realistic trade back is cleveland switching with us and giving us a 2nd or 3rd. Whats the trade value chart say that swap is worth?

    It would need to be Clevelands 2nd rounder, maybe we give them a 5th or 6th back.

    Yea I just looked at a few charts.

    Titans receive Cleveland #2 and their second rounder

    Cleveland receives #1 and a 6th.

    I think it is going to be very very hard to trade out of the top spot. With no sure fire stud QB and only 1 truly QB needy team in the top 10 it is really going to be hard for Robinson to convince a team to move up.

    I honestly think our best chance to move out of the 1st pick would be to convince the Chargers that we are going to draft Tunsil and if they want him they have to trade up to get him. Rivers has taken a beating the last couple of years. They have Dunlap and Barksdale as their OTs. Not a great duo.

    I would talk to them early about trading out because if you get a deal done early before FA starts then you can really better focus your FA moves. If the Bolts know that they have the 1st pick and will get Tunsil then they don't have to spend any resources in FA on OT. So I would say Bolts you can have the 1st pick if you give us your 2nd rnder. I would put the offer on the table with a specific date on it and if they don't take it by that date it is off the table. This would be less than the trade tables say for such a move, but in a yr like this I'm willing to do that just to move out and acquire an extra early draft pick.

    In the history of the draft the 1st pick has only been traded 9 times...so don't get your hopes up that we will be able to move the pick. The last 3 times were for players named Eli Manning(2004), Mike Vick(2001), and Orlando Pace(1997)....I'm not sure this draft has any of them in it.

    Having the 1st and 2nd pick of the 2nd round would be a god send in any other draft, but not this one.

    Unless we use them to move back into the first?
