NFL Draft Shefter: The 1st pick is worth ...

Mr. Laz · 12-21-2011, 01:15 PM

3 first round picks and two 2nd round picks ... maybe four 1st round picks.

He was talking about how the Rams might just end up with the 1st pick because they play the 49ers and Steelers but the Colts play the jags and texans.

first pick tie would be decided by SOS

his opinion anyway

No way. I figured maybe two first rounders and two second rounders, or 3 first rounders. Wow...As much as I'd love to have Luck, I wouldn't give that much up for him. RG3 for 2 first rounders or a first and 2 seconds would be a better get.

Can you imagine if the Colts **** around and miss their shot at Andrew Luck?

That almost brought a tear to my eye. I think a kitten drowns every time someone thinks about that possibility.

I wouldn't go Ricky Williams for anyone. Its been shown that it doesn't work to give up the future for one player.

Chiefs don't and haven't been to a Superbowl in 40 years and hasn't won a playoff game since Clinton was in office

I would seriously laugh if the Colts lost out on the #1 pick.

But seriously though....the Colts could easily trade with the Rams and swap the #1 and #2 pick.....and it wouldn't cost near that much to do.

Why swap and get not much of anything from the Colts when you can get 3 first rounders plus from someone else?

That's if someone is willing to pay that much.

If the Colts don't end up at #1 overall, they'll have to give up just as many picks as we would to get him. They'll just get the tiebreaker by virtue of sitting at #2 instead of #15.

The glory of that draft position is the bidding war as much as the prize, especially if you're a team like the Rams and you're after a bunch of lineman and WRs. There aren't any elite WRs in the draft this year (or relatively few) and lineman will be gettable in the 10 - 15 range. They have no reason at all to just trade back to 2 for a nominal return.

So if you're sitting at #15.....would you trade 3 1st round picks for the #1 overall spot?

if Colts are 2nd, and you know they are taking Luck, then I could see a crazy deal go down with Miami or Washington

Washington probably more than Miami. Daniel Snyder would give up 4 years worth of draft picks to get Luck.
