I don't know. The Browns could double back and take one as a back up to RGIII in case he doesn't pan out.

That's possible but still, you would need another to go off the board and that's unlikely IMO. I guess we'll see.

I have a feeling the pick will be Ramsey. I want Elliott but it just seems too good to be true. I wish Jerry would just do the right thing and step in and take Zeke, but I don't think that's gonna happen.

I think it will. Not only does Jerry want Elliott but Garrett and Linehan like him too. In fact, all the offensive coaches seem to like him. I think they buck the trend and grab him, unless Miami moves up to get him at #3.

Well who is AD LT or Emmitt? Nobody but AD LT and Emmitt. But i think he's close. I seen a guy who just dominated everybody. He's Demarco Murray with much better vision and speed and ball security.

FTFY. :)

Press conference seemed to indicate Ramsey as #1 option. Think that's a smoke screen and they really want Zeke at #4?

could be? I mean someone could trade up to #3 (hello Miami) if they thought there was a chance Dallas was gonna take Elliot. so yeah I would try to hide it as good as possible. but it could be Ramsey too who knows.

Yes. Whose press conference is it exactly?

Besides, if the Cowboys know that the Dolphins are trying to trade up for Elliott, why wouldn't they say they were interested in Ramsey?

Any team aside from the Rams and the Eagles who forecast their pick is stupid. I may have my questions about Jerry Jones and Jason Garrett, but I don't think they're that stupid.

Would not be shocked at all if Denver takes one of the two and someone trades up to top pick in the second round in a panic to get the other.

After seeing some drafts of QBs that have went in the first round when they have no business being drafted there...it just does not shock me anymore.

EJ Manuel
Branden Weedon
Jake Locker
Ponder

"should have went" What school did you attend? Proper English, "should have gone".

I think Ramsey will go #3 overall I'm just not so sure it'll be San Diego picking. I think the Jags may jump Dallas for Ramsey since they probably don't want to take another guy in the top 5 with knee issues.

No way is Denver taking one of these scrub QBs at 31. John Elway is smarter than that -- he knows full well that the value at the end of round 1 is on defense, not reaching for some hack QB. Any team who actually pulls the trigger on one of these bozos in round 1, when you have so much talent at other positions to choose from, should get their collective heads checked.

When that RB is special i say you go for it. Elliot IMO is just as good as Gurley. Dallas was willing to give Murray 4 mil a yr. Thats basically what the 4th pick will be making. You have a special player who will control the game for you and allow the defense to stay fresh. Last yr McFadden did ok, but the guy couldnt get a yrd in short yardage. BPA should be the rule right? Think Elliot is better then anybody who will be available. IMO thats not a waste of money but a great draft pick choice.

Ahh no that's not correct the 4th pick last year got over 26 mil in guaranteed money divide by 4 that's OVER 6 mil and that's just guaranteed money. We paid .4 mil that's 400,000 in guaranteed money to McFadden for 2 yr contract. So hmm lets see 200,000 minus 6 mil plus that 6 mil a year more in guaranteed money ALONE.

You take Ramsey, then DL in 2nd..... Then you can shift to offense in 3rd & 4th.....plenty of good RB found there.....

RB is like the third or fourth position need. The question is will the talent available match the need?

They should add that's it's not just Jones that likes Zeke, but Garrett and Linehan prefer him and that Rod is also fine with Zeke over Bosa. Still think if Ramsey is there, that's the pick.

Can someone please point out the story that says Marinelli prefers Elliott.

This is starting to smell like one of these rumors that starts to spin out of control.
