My Houston Trade Up Mock

[Teague31]

If Houston pulls the trigger and moves all the way to #2, it creates a huge domino effect.

#1- Carolina- Cam Newton
#2- Houston- Von Miller
#3- Buffalo- Missing out on Miller, they decide to go QB- Blaine Gabbert
#4- Cincy- AJ Green
#5- AZ- With both QB's off the board- Patrick Peterson
#6- Cleveland- With PP off the board, we don't trade up- they like Julio Jones but can't pass up Marcel Dareus
#7- SF- Robert Quinn
#8- Tenn- Nick Fairley
#9- Thanks to Dareus falling, Julio is here at 9 for the Rams who we trade with.
#10- Wash- takes Aldon Smith as a bookend for Orakpo
#11- Denver- Cam Jordan- DE
#12- Minn.- Jake Locker
#13- Det.- Prince Amukamara
#14- Dal- tyron Smith OT

One of the local radio station here in DFW mentioned a similar thing this morning. I only caught part of it.

They said if Jones was there at #9, look for a possible trade with the Rams, as they would love to have Jones, with Bradford throwing to him. Good young combo for years. Then Dallas would take one of the defensive players they like. Because any Defensive players at #9, they can get just as good at #14. If Peterson is gone of course.

Not saying I 100% agree, but that is what basically was said.

Smith would be great at #14, I can live with that.

Sounds great to me but I'm not so sure Smith gets by Detroit and also San Fran MAY go for Prince after missing out on Peterson. Then the skins might unfortunately end up with Quinn and Dallas is left taking Watt most likely. Which is perfectly ok after trading down but I would rather have Tryone Smith. I would love for that to happen though.

i rather take quinn and run....lol...instant pass rush (which everyone forgot we struggle out last season which help lead to a poor defense)

In that scenario I make the trade with Cleveland but instead of PP, I want Dareus-the best player in this draft!

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

The Denver Broncos have not had any calls for the #2 pick

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Gosselin just said on Norm's show that he didn't think there'd be any movement in the top 10, and none until 12 or 14 or so.

Doesn't sound likely to me, but maybe that's what he hears. Maybe teams don't want to move up as much as everyone thinks. (Maybe because still no rookie scale?)

I strongly feel that Buffalo would take Dareus at #3 rather than Gabbert.
