Will Brinson put out his final mock and he included trades.
Some of you won't lie the results. Some will.

http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on...ars-shake-things-up-trade-up-for-jalen-ramsey

1. Rams,
Jared Goff, QB, California


2. Eagles,
Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota St



3. Jaguars (Trade with SD)
Jalen Ramsey, FS, Florida State: I just don't see how Ramsey doesn't go third. Either the Chargers can take him here or trade out to the Jags/Cowboys, pick up a pick or two and put themselves in good position to still get the player they want.

4. Cowboys
Joey Bosa, DE, Ohio State:
It has to be Ramsey or Bosa for the Cowboys, who don't need help on the offensive line. Improving the defense is a must and either guy would do it immediately.

5. Chargers, Laremy Tunsil, OT, Miss

6. Ravens, DeForest Buckner, DE, Oregon

7. 49ers , Ronnie Stanley, OT, Notre Dame:

8. Dolphins (Trade with CLE), Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Ohio State

Also it's pretty clear that IF Jax would do something silly like this that we would go Zeke and not Bosa.

I could see this happening for 2 reasons.

1 JAX I have had them pegged for Jack he is dropping due to the knee
2. SD can drop to 5 and still get their guy

If the first three picks are Goff/Wentz/Ramsey, someone will trade with Dallas to take Tunsil.

Nope. This would absolutely suck. The two best players in the draft fell into our lap and we passed on both of them. Tunsil and Elliott.

I would hate to miss out on Ramsey but with Chi and Mia trying to trade up for Elliott and other teams seeing Tunsil drop I think we could trade out with a decent haul. Top 4 picks traded?

I hope it happens or I hope SD takes Ramsey so all the Zeke at 4 folks have to watch the Cowboys pass at Zeke at 4 otherwise they might have an excuse they will simply say Zeke was our second choice but he's not going at 4 will go 8-15. And that's not a shot at Zeke cause I would love to have him on the team but he was never going to go top five.

I agree. Elliott is not our fall back plan.

I don't think bosa or Ramsey will be immediate help for the defense.

Maybe not but when your 31st in the league in sacks you better at least try to get more pressure or cover better on the back end. We could very well trade back and get Zeke between 8-15 but we were never going to take him at 4.

I agree but this is a year or 2 fix for this defense.

Agreed doesn't look like immediate impact but it will be a step in the right direction. The defense isn't terrible but 31st in sacks is not going to get it done. We have to find more sacks and or cover better on the back end.

Yes, I do. Here is my source.

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
  int x = 1;
  if ( x == 1 )
      printf("x is equal to one.\n");
  else
      printf("For comparison use == as = is the assignment operator.\n");
  return 0;
}

NICE!
