Rams On The Clock - Pick #2

[12intheBox]

I'm posting this same scenario at on stltoday, lets see which forum comes up with the better draft.

Houston selects Blake Bortles with the #1 overall selection.

The Rams are on the Clock.

Despite media reports of a looming trade with Atlanta, Les hasn't been able to get Dimitroff to meet the Rams price for the #2 pick.

Atlanta has offered #6 and #37 for the #2 pick and they are on the phone renewing that offer now.

The only other offer worth considering is coming from the Giants who are offering #12, #43, and a 2015 First Round pick for #2.

Take the Atlanta Offer, Take the Giants Offer, or Choose One Guy for pick #2.

Please only vote for one thing - I will run through this draft (or at least the first few rounds for as long as people are interested) - and the Rams decisions will be based on majority rules. I don't need the rest of your mock draft - just what you would do as the Rams are On the Clock at this particular pick.

 

[Flipper_336]

Giants.

 

[Rams and Gators]

Take Clowney.

 

[Mojo Ram]

Take the Atlanta trade(as much as i want the future 1st...the Atlanta 2015 1st will be a low end pick). By picking at #6 we can still land a blue chip talent.

Why would the Giants make such a bad trade offer? Sure, they will take a DLineman if he's the best player available on their draft board, but trade up so much for one? No way.

Perhaps they aren't trading up for Clowney?

 

[Memphis Ram]

Perhaps they aren't trading up for Clowney?

Since they already have a QB, then who on earth would they be willing to give up that much for in this draft? And with all of their holes?

 

[12intheBox]

They haven't said and the Rams haven't asked - but they privately suspect Greg Robinson is the target. Its just a game, as you know. Care to play this year?

 

[DR RAM]

I'd have to take the Atlanta offer, but I'd like to know who they were taking. I'd hate to drop below #6, chances are a really special player is still there, plus, chance another team could try to make a move to get that new pick, or even the #13 pick. If we dropped down, then I think that we would think, that there's a not a difference taking a player in the top 10, for a chance to possibly get more starters.

By a vote of 2-1-1-0, the Rams take the Atlanta offer. The Rams now have the #6, the #13, the #37 and the #44.


So its

1. Hou - Blake Bortles
2. ATL - Jadeveon Clowney

3. Jax - Greg Robinson
4. Clev - Johnny Manziel
5. Oakland is on the clock.

They are offering the #5 overall for #13 and #44.

Take the trade up or wait until 13. Les has spoken with all of the teams from 5-12 and this is as cheap as trading up gets.

Take the trade and make a pick

or

Wait and see what is there at #6

 

[Wonderboy]

So the moral of the story is, take the trade, pick Watkins and Matthews back to back and still have a better 2nd rounder than we originally started out with. If you could guarantee that happens today, I'd say sign me up!

Stay put and take one of Matthews/Watkins.

By a vote of 1-0, (I couldnt tell what Wonderboy was going to do) the Rams elect to stay put.


1. Hou - Bortles
2. ATL - Clowney
3. Jax - Robinson
4. Clev - Manziel
5. Oak - Sammy Watkins
6. STL -


The Rams are on the clock.

No trade down offers worth reporting. Time to turn a card in. Who do the Rams take?

Matthews. Good to see you back over here 12! I haven't been to Ramstalk for months now. That place got way to crazy for me.

That's what I want to happen!
