Exactly. Trading up for Wentz would have been dumb. Fine with it if he fell, not fine with a trade up.

As an Eagles fan I am ecstatic that they won't be trading up for Wentz or Goff.

I know the Rams are shit but c'mon, we always have the Seahawks number. It helps when your center becomes a fumble recovering god too.

Oh, he definitely tried. It's just the Titans wanted Mariota just as badly. Had it been a situation like this year, where they didn't want or need a franchise QB, Mariota would've been an Eagle.

Brian baldinger is saying that the 9ers are going to trade up to #2 and take Goff.

Fisher is going to skate by a few more years because he's going to be starting a rookie QB

Seems the consensus has changed the last couple hours. All saying Goff is the guy.

Congrats Slo!
A lot of interesting tweets about possible Seahawks-Titans draft pick trades... would allow SEA to trade out of the first round, and Titans' pick order would be smoothed out
Jared Stanger ‏@JaredStanger
WOW, per the JJ trade chart:
TEN #33 (580 pts) + #45 (450 pts) = 1030 pts.
SEA #26 (700 pts) + #56 (340 pts) = 1040 pts.
It's perfect.
Jared Stanger ‏@JaredStanger
Do.This.Trade . Doesn't affect total picks for either team. Puts TEN at 15, 26, 43, 56, 64, 76. That spacing is gorgeous!

That's the Browns smoke screen trying to get other teams to trade up with them.
Browns need to start sending out some text messages.
Colts wouldn't announce Luck was their guy before the 2012 draft. Teams do the league a solid so everyone tunes in on draft night to see who gets taken. I think the Rams want Wentz
What did Costner give up for Bo Callahan? Seems like Snead did the better deal

This is all part of Fisher's master plan to never be fired.
Though I would like a good QB.

The worst beer for the worst person,
I ain't remove nothing man, but I'll be nice and add you, also I'll get you 2 Coors Light 40oz bottles, that's the most I'm doing.
And Fisher will do anything to keep his job, consequences be damned.
I got reminded of those Blues fans yelling "RAMS SUCK" endlessly.
Been so busy hasn't realized regular NBA season was over.
Hell, I don't know how the fuck Rockets snuck into playoffs. That's gonna be one heck of a squash match.

Also, Kobe scoring 60 last night is about as legit as the Make A Wish kid taking a hand off 80 yards to the house against the Nebraska Cornhuskers.

Yup. LA Pats fans are fine with a Brady collapse.
He's going to have David Ortiz and Zdeno Chara carry him on their shoulders.

I'm on it! When do you guys want me to turn the summary in? I had the Rams taking Laquon Treadwell when we were picking 15th. But this is just bananas. .The safe bet would be an OT, but I'm sure pressure from ownership will have us going Goff or Wentz.
Still thinking this is an on-going smokescreen designed to get someone else to fall or just to screw with Chip Kelly and hope he outbids himself for the #2 pick.
It just doesn't make sense for the Eagles to trade up for a QB when they essentially signed Bradford to a one-year prove-it deal. If they are going to invest a lot of resources into a future franchise QB, someone who is going to be the face of the franchise, why bring Bradford back at all? It just makes things awkward. They would have just signed Daniel to be the bridge guy and eventual backup and use that Bradford money to re-sign Fletch. The way they did it screams drafting a 3rd-string developmental QB in the later rounds (Prescott? Hackenberg?).
The only way it makes sense, given the way the offseason played out, is if they had planned all along to give Bradford one more shot but then were completely blown away by Wentz and/or Goff and now just want to get him. Poor planning, if that is the case.

The Rams need to figure out which QB can handle playing every home game w/ 80% of the fans rooting for the other team.
Should have traded for Phillip Rivers

Bill Simmons hates Los Angeles because we give him crap everytime he's over here. Celtics Homer still can't get over the finals.

I think he's just making a transplants joke. So many Angelenos are from somewhere else and root for their childhood team still, especially since LA hasn't had a professional team in 20 years.
2009 was the worst of the bunch.
