3 QBs in all likely hood, could trade our 3rd for a Flynn or Cousins type guy and use the two seconds on CB, WR, or LB combo.

Of course, that would require a trade partner and I

Don't huff the nitrous oxide, it can be bad for you long term. Or at least let it wear off before you post.

Crazier things have happened. As it sits right now, trading out of the #1 spot is getting quite a bit of speculation from the talking heads and I don't really blame them. Unless a QB separates himself in this draft class, we can get the same "product" in the late first or even early 2nd round, as we would with the #1 pick, which is why I'm playing devils advocate and voicing the fact that I wouldn't be opposed to drafting Te'O if he happens to be the golden goose of this draft class. Hell, it makes no sense to waste the #1 selection on a QB that will produce the same play as a guy selected in the 30's.

All it does is allow the whiners their chance to revel in the fact that we finally made a QB selection in the first round after all of the years, and in 2-3 years we can come back here and start with the "What were we thinking? QB X was there in the 3rd round, why did we draft Geno/Matt/Tyler?".

And oh boy, with this draft class, I cannot wait for that day to come.

I take you wouldn't want this scenario if it presented itself? That would be stupid. Like I said, I doubt it would tho

Trading out of the #1 pick for a measly extra 2nd is stupid. If you guarantee me we get Geno and trade down then yeah maybe. Otherwise no dice. St Louis got 3 #1 and a #2 for the 2nd overall to drop 6 spots. No way I trade #1 and drop 8 spots for a 2nd. Stupid.
