Danny Shelton would be a good pick too and Cleveland at 12 is a threat to take him. We wouldn't need to climb as far for him.

Is there anyone you would be willing to trade up for?

Pace can't make that trade because he's building a 3-4 in Chicago as well...

That's why we've got to reach way up...

In my mind, and I failed to mention this in my diatribe, the Future No. 1 was used but it could easily be either of Kenny Vaccaro or Cam Jordan...

As I posted on another thread, Bill Williamson, who's one of the more credible columnist, sorry, bloggers for you whiper-snappers, has 'pondered' moves regarding AFC West Teams before only to see moves very close to what he suggested come about...

Point is, I don't think he just sat at his desk and decided to stir up things, he may have some information that he based this column on...

If available, Cameron Jordan would make sense for Raiders to consider - Oakland Raiders Blog - ESPN

I'm not sure at this point the Saints are convinced, nor should they be, that Cam Jordan has proved worthy of a max contract (ghosts of Will Smith coming back for me); so maybe we move Jordan and get an impact pass rusher (my mock has Vic Beasley/Carl Davis teaming up on one side) and keep outta the salary cap trap till the stats, body of evidence is there to justify those salaries...

Interesting read... Thanks for posting that link! That's an angle I hadn't thought about. As if there could've possibly been more draft day scenario's to ponder now I have another one!

Goldman has been over-looked by a lot of people. He is solid.

I like Harold. You know that. Just not in round 1.

Now who I am sold on is Stephone Anthony! I have ZERO problem taking him at 31.

Could you imagine if we somehow drafted Beasley AND Anthony ??

That's pretty much my dream too...

I'd really like DL Carl Davis with those two...If that happened...

I'd be halfway across the country banging on Hagan's door drunk BEFORE he got the cork outta his own liquor...

I went back and watched the entire game against FSU ... if I had to sum it up in a word on Anthony it would be explosive. Once coached up properly, he could be a serious LB in the NFL for many years.

OT T.J. Clemmings (6-foot-4 3/4, 309 pounds), whom most analysts believe will go in the second half of the first round, has visits set up with the Denver Broncos, New Orleans Saints, and St. Louis Rams, according to a report from Foxsports.com. The Broncos, who pick 28th in the first round, are in need of a right tackle. Clemmings has played just two seasons along the offensive line but started as a junior and senior at right tackle for Pitt.

not giving up on my OL yet.

Nor should any of us...

If you're gonna spend a first round pick on a right tackle, I'd spend it on Oregon's Fisher...but I wouldn't waste it on the Pitt guy...

Should Colorado St's Ty Sambrailo falls to us with one of our third round picks, that'd be a gifted athlete to grab and best scenario...

Third Round targets include OU's Daryl Williams, Texas A&M's Cedric Ogbuehi, or Penn St's Donovan Smith...

The priority after initial FA and subsequent trades has to be that front seven in the defense (OLB, DE, ILB); it has got to be fortified, improved.

Some late round sleepers - Toledo's Chase Nelson and West Virginia's Mark Glowinski and Eastern Washington's Jake Rodgers...

Rodgers is the guy I've started taking a real interest in and someone I'd hope the Saints are as well...
