    6th pick traded to Houston, they take VON FUCKING MILLER

    otherwise I'll take Robert Quinn, Aldon Smith, or whoever else can help the pass rush off the edge at the 11th pick
    I'd say that rollout in the top 5 is a pretty bad scenario for the Browns. I'd be torn between Von Miller and Julio Jones.

    Anyway, one problem I've noticed on team message boards is that trade proposals are almost always one-sided in favor of the team covered by the board. When dealing with draft picks it's somewhat mitigated because there is at least some standard, i.e. the draft pick value chart, although I have my own concerns about that and the effect is still there.

    How about a little negotiating?

    Offer:

    From Cleveland:
    #6 pick

    From Houston:
    #11 pick
    #42 pick

    I think the immediate impact of the lockout will be teams will place a premium on higher picks and it will be difficult to move up.

    for all intents and purposes, the lockout is over and won't affect the draft. idk if the judge's ruling was stayed or not, but for the purposes of trading kolb, it might still affect that

    well, no. I'm talking about the fact that every year by this time, most teams have already spent a shitton of money on free agents. I.e. had the Eagles signed Asomugha, their draft becomes a lot simpler.

    oic, i thought maybe you meant because teams would lose a year on grooming lower round picks (but then again there woulda been less pressure on drafting players that can produce now, but then again, moot point, so i'll shut up now)
