Tunsil is available at 4
Titans give 15 and Rams two 2's for 4
Titans get the player they would have taken at 1 plus salary relief, an extra 1 and two 3's

Cowboys take Lynch and saturate the defense with 4 top 70 picks or
Drop down with Arizona or Denver and end up with 7 top 100 picks and play into the strength of the draft the 2-3 rounds

Not going to happen. Titans aren't trading back up until top 5.

If Tunsil is their guy, I doubt they'll risk losing him for the cost difference between the 4th and 5th pick. Looking at the chart - I know, I know - it's 100 points. Or an early 4th round pick.

If the Titans do want to move back up for Tunsil, 4 is very good spot for that to happen.

They will go with a different OT. They can move anywhere they want in the draft so giving up 2 2nd round picks they just got doesn't make sense

Rumor is they like Ramsey a little better. Wonder if they would do it for him. These last two weeks will go by very slowly.

If they were ever truly considering Tunsil at #1, then it makes a ton of sense. They get the guy they wanted, and get a future 1st round pick and two 3rds for a 4th/6th. They essentially move down to 4 rather than 15. There's a world of difference between Tunsil and guys who will be there at 15.

This deserves its own thread tbh.. Ramsey still on board and Titans call offering two 2nd rounders and 3rd would you pull the trigger?

It's just one rumor in a sea of many. The paid analysts obviously weren't buying the rumor.

So I get 15, 43 and 45 and say 64 or 76 to allow the Titans to draft Ramsey?

Where do I sign up for that deal? That's a slam dunk IMO.

Would love, love, love this scenario but I doubt it happens.

If the Titans made this offer:

#15, #43, #45 and #76 for #4, Stephen and Jerry should be on the phone with the league office locking the trade in before the Titans have even a millisecond to think about changing their mind.

Yup. Even if it was just 15 and the two #2s or 15, a 2 and 76 I would jump on it.

For 15 and 76 that two would have to be 33 and not either of the Rams picks (43 and 45).

I'd rather have the two Rams picks than the 33rd and 76th picks, personally.

And if Lynch gets taken before 15? Still like it if we're taking Darron Lee because everyone else is gone?

Based on who we brought in and where they're likely to get drafted, I don't think we're entertaining a drop that far. I think we'd trade with Tampa at 9 or Chicago at 11 before trading with Tennessee. We'd be happy just picking up one 2nd (39 or 41 respectively). Both teams have severe LT needs whereas Tennessee is survivable with Taylor Lewan.

San Diego could very well take Tunsil and make this all moot anyway. They only have King Dunlap, over 30 and frequently injured.
