Pete Prisco, of CBSSports.com, reports the Atlanta Falcons, who have the No. 3 overall pick, may try to work a trade with the St. Louis Rams to acquire the No. 2 overall pick and acquire Louisiana State DL Glenn Dorsey.

Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: falcons could move up
 

Key words "may try". Not buying it, not when Ellis is there still on the board.

They have to many needs that I don't see Dorsey going to them here except only for the fact they have him and we don't???

I like the idea of a rivial building here come on silly move.

Re: falcons could move up
 

Never happen. The Rams are picking a DE, the Falcons are picking a QB, the Raiders are taking RB and will will be trading for Dorsey with KC@5 who need a starting LT/Brown, if the deal goes down at all.

I the Saints are serious about DT, we should trade before Cinny and get Ellis else it will cost us too much.

Re: falcons could move up
 

See I am with you on the first part... I think this is a smoke screen on many levels. Falcons try and get us to give up a lot to the rams since we are a rival. Rams need is DE over a DT. Falcons can't pass on a QB even though they can get a top 3 possible in the early second. Not sold on Raiders going RB but sure. KC trade in the making??? I like it and we get Dorsey.

I think Dorsey is worth the price. Giving up Brown or a second but keeing that second is MAJOR improtance at getting Shockey.

no way the raiders are taking a RB...they have fargas, lamont jordan, dominic rhodes and they are really high on bush (who they drafted last year) all on their roster at the moment and they have a lot bigger needs...of course we are talking about al davis here

Re: falcons could move up
 

Rams get picks and long. sounds like a smart move to me. Sux for the saints though. see it is nice to have a lot of picks

Re: falcons could move up
 

Thank you.

And speaking of Al Davis - let's keep an eye on Jerrry Jones come draft day.:bartinator:

Re: falcons could move up
 

Raiders could go anywhere with all the needs they have. I just don't know if they could pass on a RB here though. They could easily trade back with us. I wouldn't rule them out.

Dorsey to the Falcons though thats like letting them take our dome to Georgia.

Re: falcons could move up
 

Dorsey to the Dirty Byrds makes my skin crawl and my butt pucker up. No sir, don't like it.

Re: falcons could move up
 

Exactly. I hate the notion of him on that team.

Re: falcons could move up
 

Dorsey going to Atlanta would be horrible. But at least we all know that Atlanta should suck for at least a couple years. That should give the Saints plenty of time to be able to prepare. LOL. Let Atlanta move up to the number 2 spot. They will have to give up a lot to get there, and they would only have Dorsey. I think the Saints offense can handle one dominate defensive lineman. The nice thing is Atlanta may have to give up some much needed draft picks to move up a spot. That could hurt their rebuilding which would be great for the Saints. Still, I am with you guys on Dorsey going to Atlanta. It would make me puke to have to root against him...
