You're the GM

If we were not able to get the deal we want – i’d pick Claiborne.

But the drop off at OT after the 1st round is much worse than it is at WR or DB. I say trade down and take Martin. With the extra picks, get Casey Hayward and Cordy Glenn in the 2nd. Then address WR in the 3rd with Jeff Fuller. WIth the comp. in the 3rd address LB or DT. 4th round address safety. BPA from there.

I like him more than Reiff, and he fits our offense better, has more upside and has good feet for a big man. After the combine I think he’ll separate himself from Reiff. If Martin is gone too then take Reiff. We need a LT!

First, I’d go with Kalil
After that, it’s a toss up for me between trading for really good picks or RGIII
Then its Claiborne if we don’t get a really good trade in terms of picks.
I have no interest in taking a WR with the 3rd pick.

I mean it would because we have so many holes on our team, but how often do teams not names Lions or Rams get top three picks? I think you have to go with the most important position on the field and make sure you’ve got it locked up. With that said I would go like kcskol and pull Kalil, RGIII, Trade down for Martin, Claibourne.

Good QB’s aren’t a dime a dozen and I don’t think we’ll be seeing this high of a draft pick again for a long while.

The latest chatter has St. Louis trading the #2 pick, but for the purpose of this poll here is what I hope to see assuming Luck and Kalil are off the board.

We hold the pick that most assume RGIII will be drafted in. The only trading partner I would be serious about is Cleveland. They currently hold their pick at 4 and Atlanta’s pick at 22. You have to convince Cleveland that teams like Washington, Miami and Seattle are offering you a boatload of picks for RGIII at 3. We gain at minimum an extra 1st round pick and slide back only one pick. The other teams mentioned can only offer us picks in the 6 – 12th range and future picks or later round pick which I see far less value in. In this case I would try and slide back out of 4 to the 6 -10 range and take best LT available then BPA at either WR or CB with 22.

Now if St. Louis decided to take Blackmon to give Bradford a receiving target we have a similar scenario. Once again you talk to Cleveland and try to convince them to trade at least #4 and #22 for #3, gambling that they take RGIII, Take Kalil at #4 and still pick up #22 and possibly an additional 2nd or 3rd rounder from Cleveland. If Cleveland takes that trade but passes on RGIII, I would let the bidding begin again for our pick at 4 depending on who is still on the board.

The last few drafts I’ve sat and watched as the Patriots wheel and deal and then are getting numerous picks in rounds 1 – 3. We need to upgrade the O-line, secondary, receivers and linebackers in that order, and if we can force Cleveland’s hand we can take major steps to filling the major holes this year during the early rounds where you are more likely to find players that can be day 1 starters.
