Let's flow the draft talk into this thread as the draft starts in 14 mins.

Atlanta is looking to trade up. Maybe we will be the ones to trade down and grab another third rounder or second rounder?

If we use the no 10 pick I think it will be Quinn or Locker.

Skins don't trade up to #2.... so far so good

I'm happy for Miller. Seems like a real good kid. Would've loved to have gotten him.

I was thinking, "How cool would it be if John Elway's first pick as GM refused to sign with the Broncos, and demanded a trade?" Probably no more than a handful of the members here would get the irony...
Unfortunately, Von Miller is a class act... the Broncos just got on hell of a player.

Bengals take AJ Green. Cards are on the clock. I'm thinking Patrick Peterson here. He, too, is sitting in green room awaiting the call

Only 1 QB off the board so far

Atlanta came thisclose to pulling off a trade for WR A.J. Green. Its next target is Alabama WR Julio Jones.

Shaping up for us to be able to get Gabbert at 10.

Falcons have indeed moved up to 6th overall. My guess is its to get Julio Jones

ATL gave up way too much for that pick. Is Vinny their GM now?

CanesSkins26 · Post by **CanesSkins26** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 8:42 pm

Aldon Smith to San Fran...interesting
