Vikings are willing to trade their #3, would you do it? Who do you think will?

Dallas won't trade up to 3.

The Dolphins may though. If they feel that Tannehil is the guy and don't want to take a chance on Cleveland grabbing him.

I'd heard that too. But you would think the value of picks 2 through 4 are close to the same and the big jump was between 2 and 3.

They've said they have multiple needs and feel they could still get a decent OT much lower while grabbing another top player. I would trade Khalil for Martin and Gilmore (or Kirkpatrick).

The idea of Dallas trading up to 3 is our of the question.

No, we have too many holes to be pissing away picks on a trade up. There will be at least one blue chip prospect at 14 for us.
 
Why trade up to the third ??? What player should we get....Blackmon ???
We don't need a Number 1 WR. Richardson ??? We got Murray.
I don't see that happen at all. Khalil ??? Would be nice but no. Way to many holes to fill.
 
I'm sure they are willing to trade down. No one is willing to trade up, however.
 
If the Cowboys WERE to trade up, I wouldn't want it to be as aggressive as trading with the Vikes to select at #3. It would cost way too much for anyone we would get, IMO.

IF we go up, I'd be alright with going up as far as #7 to get Fletcher Cox, but that's about it ... and that would still cost us more than I would prefer to see us give up to get him, good as I think he'll be. To be honest, I hope we don't do that either.

Several good players should still be available at #14. Rather we just hold and take the BPA at our designated spot.
 
i don't want to see them move up that far. morris claiborne would be a pretty nice addition though.

3 is kinda a no man lands.


The only team with any interest will be Miami, if they are worried that Cleveland will snag Tannehil.

Outside of that, nobody has any reason to jump up to 3.
 
Having your pick of Claiborne, Richardson, or Khalil would be very sweet.
If you're within 4-5 slots and need a CB, RB, or LT, trade would be worth it.

CB is only position relevant to our situation, but we aren't close.

I heard Cleveland is going to stand pat, draft Richardson, and then the WR from Baylor, and then Brandon Weeden in the 2nd.
 
They need to stand pat and take OSU's manchild of a wideout, maybe put Percy Harvin on the trading block for next year's draft...or if they fear that their great RB isn't coming back the same player they could draft trent Richardson.

I'm gonna get accuse of aggie bashing but mcCoy is a better QB than Tannehill, no sense taking a QB that will backup what you already have.

Weeden is probably a second day player, he'll turn 29 during the season so like Chris Weinke a decade ago it's develop immediately or fade away.
 
You'd only make a move up like that from where we are if you were moving up to get what you felt was a Franchise QB.
