Trade out of #1. We'll have to take less than what the Rams got for #2 last year, no doubt...but maybe trade back to Philly and then trade back again to around 9-13 range and I'll assume Geno will be off the board at this point...
so then I'd like to take someone like Tavon Austin around pick #10. Then I'd like to trade back into the later part of the 1st round...around 22 or so...and take E.J. Manual and let him sit behind Smith like Kaepernick did because I need a QB that is an athlete in today's NFL and I think Manual has that potential. I'd have to look into it further because if he's a dumb **** I don't want a dumb **** at QB...Kaepernick, Wilson, Geno...they are cerebral. Yes, I realize I'm judging him in that regard due to skin color I can admit it. I'm sorry, I'm flawed.
So that gets us Austin and EJ with Alex Smith so far.
Then I want to spend the rest of our picks on 1-2 DB's, 1-2 TE's, 1 WR or RB and then a few BPA's from rounds 5-7.

I agree. This is what I said in another post. By picking up Alex Smith, they are adding desire for the #1 pick, allowing them to trade down. They can then trade back into the 1st and get a guy like Barkley or Glennon.
