Rumors du jour or smoke gets in your eyes… With just over 48 hours o go until the start of the 2007 draft here are some of the stories that have been making the rounds. Take them for what they are worth!


Atlanta owner Arthur Blank has reportedly ‘ordered’ his football management team to do whatever it takes to move up from the #8 draft spot in order to get hometown star Georgia Tech WR Calvin Johnson. Of course in order to move up far enough to get Johnson, the Falcons will have to almost assuredly get the #2 pick overall, if they don’t go to #1 and that will likely cost them their 2008 first rounder.

Denver may have something cooking with Houston to swap the 10th and 21st picks. Its not clear if I moving up the Broncos are interested in primarily a player like Ole Miss LB Patrick Willis at #10 or whether Denver has bigger fish to fry; that is they’d like to move up even further, again likely to that #2 spot to get Johnson.

Chicago and Miami may work something out over franchised Bears’ LB Lance Briggs involving a swap of the 9th and 31st picks. And like the Broncos, the Bears may make this move a stepping stone to go even higher as Chicago is rumored to be interested in moving up to get Notre Dame QB Brady Quinn.

While Oakland reportedly has made no contract offer to either of LSU QB Jamarcus Russell or WR Johnson, the Raiders have reportedly made what some are calling a lowball offer to Notre Dame QB Brady Quinn. Nobody really expects Quinn to be the Raiders choice with the #1 pick, however, they may be setting the bar very low for the other top two players; i.e., ask too much and we’ll take Quinn, who by some reports new Raiders’ head coach Lane Kiffin actually prefers anyway.

The Raiders, though, only have a couple of days to take advantage of the right to negotiate with players prior to the draft. Have a nice day…

I keep wondering what is happening with the Trent Green to Miami, goodbye Culpepper in Miami, hello Oakland for Culpepper, let's draft Johnson and figure out what to do with Moss rumors.

Interesting.... since the Skins offered their 6th pick for Briggs. I am guessing Miami will make the pot a little sweeter with some additional picks or players.

i think the cowboys should get Johnson and then go from there we could use a couple good WR but then agian dallas could use another good tight end for the season too but we will see how everthing plays out
