2. St. Louis Rams (via Washington Redskins) -- Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson -- The Rams have a great setup for this draft. They can auction the pick if Jadeveon Clowney falls (or if someone wants a quarterback) or they can grab their top option at wideout or offensive line. (They could also take Clowney if they want.) Watkins is an elite-level talent and one of the rare wideouts worthy of this high a selection. With line depth in this draft, St. Louis can gamble.
8. St. Louis Rams (MOCK TRADE with Minnesota Vikings) -- Jake Matthews, OT, Texas A&M -- With no quarterbacks on the board for the Vikings, they're willing to move down for a third (or more; that's not the point really) from the Rams, who have plenty of ammunition to jump up and grab one of the best two tackles in this draft. Jeff Fisher's tight with the Matthews family (he coached Bruce Matthews) and this would be an incredible haul, once again, for St. Louis.
Now I'm not sure I like the idea of giving up a third, but in a trade down, trade up and still have our original second and third.
