Trade down to 6 at the lowest and take Evans or one of the two OT's....that is, if you can.

6 is too low. Getting out of the top 5 guys would require a much bigger compensation for me than if you stay within that group.
Clowney, Mack, Robinson, Matthews, Watkins - the Rams could walk away feeling pretty good about landing any of them. Even if it is not a huge step down to the next group it still is a step down and should be a big step up in compensation.

I am guessing that they are banking on at least one team taking a QB before them if they trade down to 6. Cleveland, Jville, Houston could all be willing to go QB. It would just take one of them.....or for one of them to trade with a team that wants a certain QB like Minnesota or Dallas supposedly.
