If the Rams get first selection, they will not take Andrew Luck. UNLESS they have TWO more or teams attempting to trade into their first overall pick. If no team is trying to trade, that means, teams know they will have to dump Bradford or Luck, thus lowering the asking price.

Like when the Cowboys turned Walsh, a #1 pick when they had Aikman, into two #1 picks.

What about it? I'm missing the point here, sorry, I fail. :(


Chargers did something similar with Eli Manning when they had Drew Brees. They ended up getting Phillip Rivers and then let Drew Brees walk. I believe they received compensation in compensatory pick? If they had traded him, they would have received more than a 3rd I think. Anyhow the drafting of Eli Manning I believe netted them a second rounder and they used it wisely.

Edit, damn everyone helped the Cowboys. Vikings with Herschel Walker, Saints with Steve Walsh. They received 1991 first and third, plus 1992 second rounder for Steve Walsh.

Would love to see more Alex Green.
Let's see what he can do.

DakotaT;195959How do we keep getting all these bye weeks?
It's a conspiracy I tell you!

Here's another opportunity for the Pack to prove they don't play down to opponents.

And for McCarthy to show, again, that he's better than Holmgren. (Anyone else remember that embarassment against, I think, the Colts in the year after their Super Bowl victory?
Back when we liked to call them the Dolts.)

PackerTraxx;195979Are you saying the Rams wouldn't take him if they pick first or the Rams won't have the worst record?

I think both actually. The Rams will pull it together just enough to avoid having the #1 pick, and even if they don't, Sam Bradford is their guy. They should invest on some targets for him, or a corner.

That day is kind of hazy in the memory to tell you the truth.
I was chemically enhanced at the mercy of my friends.

I remember it because the lowly colts had beaten the previous years super bowl champs for like 3-4 years in a row.
I thought no way they'd do it to the Packers.
Fail.

I can't wait for this game because I will be there! I still can't decide if I should wear my throw back or home jersey or just take both with me to the game.

All I'm saying is that Luck will be the first player picked regardless of who is picking IMO. His value in person or trade is much greater than the next player. I'm not the best communicator...but I try.LOL
