All this talk about teams trading up to # 2 is a lot of hooey

To trade up to # 2 it would cost a kings ransom, and I don't believe anyone would pay that price to move up for Mariota or Winston. I think its all a lot of hot air and come Thursday night the Titans will make their selection at 2, and when the Jets go on the clock Mariota will be sitting there for them if they want him.

Thats my bold prediction for Thursday night and I'm sticking to it.

My prediction is......Tenn wont have mAriota by end of Thursday night..the reason I say that is I think between Cleveland that reportedly wants him and have 12 AND 19 they have the ammunition to trade up..and the Eagles..who have Kelly and are NUT jobs...

also..LETS THINK....IF Jets had METZENBERGER...and second pick.....would you take a couple of early picks to help the cause or MAriota which affects Metzenberger....and just gives your team more to worry and think about ????

I agree with Ham, Cleveland will be the only possibility, but most probably not, IMO. I also think we don't draft Maripta

Marriota will be there @ #4 ... ? is will Oakland trade the pick. The trade value drops precipitously after pick 3. This would be the time for Eagles and/or Browns or Rams or Chicago or Jets to trade up.

Again you can throw the trade chart out the window when it comes to possible acquiring a franchise Qb.( could be a lot of teams competing for, pushing up the asking price.
If the Browns are willing to give up both first rounders for Mariotta. That is the price someone going to have to beat.

Will the Raiders trade back. If Leonard Williams is there, I think they make the pick. Other than that , there is a strong chance they move back in the draft.

I think the Raiders, Redskins, and Jets picks are all in play for trading back...

It all depends on whose on the board when they pick. Their guy is still there, than they aren't trading back.

That would be true if the QB was Andrew Luck, but nobody is overpaying for Mariota who is a project even by his most vocal supporters definition. You'll take a value chart trade and like it :)

If The Titans trade the pick, let's see what they get for Mariotta. We will have the answer to that question

30+ teams, and many can use a QB.

I'm betting Mariota has some serious suitors right now. I expect a trade up. Tennessee's GM is pumping this pick up. Talking about how wonderful it is to be at 2, both QB's are outstanding prospects, ect. It's all his way of saying "you want Mariota? It's gonna cost a lot". I think the Browns are all in.

I don't see anyone trading up with the Titans precisely because it is too costly, even by chart standards to trade all the way up to 2. IMO the only way they are moving that pick is if SD is willing to essentially swap Rivers for Mariota.

I agree. I think the titans really are hoping someone will pay a big price for the pick but I'm calling their bluff. I don't think anyone bits and they take someone else, probably Williams.

I think someone could trade up for him later. My prediction is with the Redskins.
