I'd love this deal.
You get Brown & still have 2 1st round picks. I'd take Albert at 10. I know he's moving up the board and all, but I'd feel a bit uneasy taking him at 5- seeing as how most teams are looking at switching him over to OT from guard.
We can't move past 10 really, but you know that Denver and other teams after 10 are going to be taking O-line. But I think at 10 you can still get Albert, possibly a different O-lineman or D-lineman.
I am starting to think that we should definitely take one of the other QB's with our 2nd. If Brody doesn't pan out this next year, and we tank, we will most likely have a top 3 pick next year, and the QB's next year from what I've seen aren't nearly as good. People can debate which one of the QB's they'd want besides Ryan, but I think I'd love to grab Brohm if we can get him in the 2nd. The guy was on everyone's board for so long as the top QB prospect and I think he has all the tools to be a very good QB. It's a good idea to give Brody some competition, as well as having some insurance, instead of feeling like we're going to have to use our very high 1st rounder on a QB next year- when the prospects coming out aren't looking to be as good as this year.
Moving back in this draft and picking up more picks for this year is a great idea in my mind. While its obvious that this years draft is fairly weak at the top of blue chip guys, it's also extremely deep with a lot of quality players that would probably go higher in other years. So if you can get better value in a number of players instead of sticking pat at #5 to get more choices or what not, it makes a lot more sense that trying to justify giving #5 pick money to a guy that probably isn't worth that sort of money- be it drafting for need or BPA.
Sign me up for trading picks with the Saints at 5 to 10: Taking Albert or maybe Harvey at 10 & getting Brown.
At 17: Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie maybe??? Probably the top CB in the draft and may still be on the board- you have a need area and get the best CB debatably... welcome to other's suggestion.
Round 2: Brohm, kinda reminds me of Marino. Not the most mobile pocket passer, but has solid frame, height, mechanics, high release point, and his completion percentage is much better than the other 1 & 2nd round guys. People worry about his arm strength, I think he's got enough mustard to be fine and who really thinks were gonna be dropping deep bombs all that often under Herm. Didn't they say that Montana also had a weak arm?
