Trades Trades Trades - Snead gets creative

[TheTackle]

For fun and because he can’t help himself, giddy with so many players still available that he covets - Snead surprises everyone and trades down - again - to accumulate a number of great prospects with starting potential

See this article: round 2 and the top of round 3 is loaded!

Snead sees future starters at safety, guard, LB and TE if we trade down from 45 and up from the back end of round 3.

Expecting a run on WRs, OTs and CBs that plays into our hands!

This is becoming a joke

Still great value with Layne, Rapp, Adderly, Ferguson, & Winovich available.

Adding cheap labor with essentially 5 top 100 picks

Missed out on two nice centers . Don't outsmart yourself .

Do they want to draft a center? Allen looked good in a small sample last season, got a lot of reps in practice as the Wednesday starting center, and is dirt cheap. I don't think they are looking to upgrade him. Too many other positions are more needed - and arguably better values.

Must be Stockholm Syndrome. He's thinking back to the Jeff Fisher days and thinking he has to collect 8 low round players to try and find a starter.

That trade-back in the 2nd round was...man, I was clearly in the camp against trading out of the 1st round, but trading out of that 2nd round pick with Greedy AND McCoy still on the board...good god. The Rapp pick was confusing, too. He's the kind of guy who tackles really solidly...because he has to, because he lets the receiver get the ball first.

Disagree. I see Rapp as a baby Weddle and a guy who’s gonna be heard from as a rook.

Love the pick.You'll love him, too, once he starts playing.

you make it sound like the rams don't know what they're doing. they work out who they can and can't get, come up with a plan of which players they like best with the capital they have and then snead trades down and up to areas he thinks he can get his/mcvay's guys. obviously they were targeting rapp, henderson and long plus evans from the get go. they prefer those players than taking a guy at #31 and whatever two players are there late in the 3rd.

remember he kept trading down until he had enough ammunition to trade back up in the 3rd. so we know henderson was always the target.
