Possible? Would you cry?

As it being draft season, and an elongated one a that, I find myself trying out many many many different draft scenarios that could occur on draft day.

My most current scenario is one many will not be happy about.

Basically we miss out on Clowney, Mack, Matthews, Robinson and Watkins. The big 5 who are no doubt atop all of our big boards.

Just wondering how would you feel if we didn't get any of those prospects?

*no, we are not grabbing a QB with our first pick, this is after a hypothetical multi trade down scenario(not with cowpokes). Oh yea, no o-line or wr's in the first either.

 

[Rams and Gators]

Depends what we get in return.

 

[Hawk]

Would all depend on the haul we received from the trade. How could I not be happy if we trade back, nab an extra 2nd and future 1st and come away with say Aaron Donald, Taylor Lewan, and Jimmie Ward with our first three picks?

Basically in this we get a lot of picks this year that we use to move around, and I mean a lot, to grab players they want.

Stashing draft picks is a good move for a solid team. The Patriots and the 49ers have been successful doing that. But I believe that in a good draft like this one we should get the best players available at the positions they're needed. I'm much more interested in getting the players we want and need now rather than getting another #1 pick next season.

We need to come up with at least three starters from this draft, at the Oline for sure and then at the safety and DB positions. Another WR and RB would help as well. Snead and Fisher should be more interested in fortifying this team with players we need now rather than reaching for projects and looking like genius wheeler-dealers.

As long as the holes get filled well, that's cool! Just want an ass kicking team on the field!

 

[Rams and Gators]

I think what we need is elite players, we have a solid team, but we need guys who can take us over the top.

Welcome Hawk.

 

[bwdenverram]

I would be disappointed in theory if we missed on all those players but if we ended up with several additional picks that gave us good value then we'd have to wait and see.

And Matthews...and Robinson...and Watkins...

 

[kurtfaulk]

And Matthews...and Robinson...and Watkins...

yeah, i know but i'm fixated on clowney and his ability to pick up tennis balls very quickly while running around in circles. imagine how quickly he can get to the qb running around the tackle.

As long as we lay out some tennis balls for him he should be elite, maybe that's where USC went wrong?

 

[PowayRamFan]

I think the time is now, take the blue-chippers that will put us over the top. This draft is supposedly loaded and we are in an enviable position, let's take advantage of it.

Welcome to the ROD Hawk! :lifting: :seizure: :rockon: :cheers:

It's great to have a new member with a name I can pronounce. I think you'll enjoy our little community. An oasis in a desert of good intelligent Rams talk. With a little fun thrown in.

Wait, I'm confused...people have led me to believe these are the only 5 guys in the draft, so does that mean we won'y get a player this year??

Blue font not needed.

 

[Elmgrovegnome]

I would not be happy if the Rams miss out on one of the top 5. If they make a trade and it involves a pick next year, who is to say that next years draft isn't like 2010?

 

[mr.stlouis]

I don't like the idea of it.

 

[Dagonet]

If we get a plethora pf picks, I wouldn't mind. Question is, could we sign them all under the rookie cap? Roster spots?

 

[Ramhusker]

I think I'm starting to settle on the TX A&M plan and no not Johny Football, but rather Mathews and Evans in the first round. This is with a trade down out of two of course to get that coveted extra 2nd round pick.
