It looks like it"s a done deal according to Ian Rapoport just waiting for KC.

I'd like to have a flop in draft position tossed into that deal as well, KC has that #1 each rd rotation so even the 6th rd would matter to our draft board.
And Jd, if it means we won't trade up with the raiders, I'm fine with it. -
Is this the same report from yesterday? There were conflicting reports. He said Dolphins were ready to make the deal, but Mort said talks broke down and the Dolphins hadn't spoke to them in weeks.

How about if we trade down to SF who is looking to move to 13 or 14.

Then that would make me happy. I still would like us to draft a tackle. We need someone ready to go if Martin can't hack it or Albert develops a bad back. Our record of veteran injury prone linemen is a little shaky.finfansince72 and Drowning like this. -

Trade down and then draft Eifert.

Maybe I am missing something but you would think a physical examination would be a requirement for a deal to go through.Of course there is still time to do that before the draft but once it starts how can you make a draft day trade without one.Important draft decisions will be made based on that trade and those decisions will be ireversible once the draft is done and if Albert fails his physical.
I dont like the timing of this trade .You would think we would get more leverage once the draft got started. -

If we trade down, the deal had better be damn good. A starting player, a 1st round pick this year, and a 1st next year. Otherwise I don't see the value in passing on the players who would be there at 12, especially since we have two 2nd round picks.Pandarilla likes this. -

Imagine if the deal doesn't get done and KC is faced with drafting a LT when they already have a great, young, cheap LT in Stephson, and a decent, overpriced one in Alberts. They can not afford to take another. They take Dion, the jags take Geno, Raiders take Sharrif and suddenly we are at 4 and all 3 tackles are still there. It is a long shot but it could happen. At that point both SD and Ireland would be able to trade up and get ONE of the 3. There are just too many things that could happen for us to pull the trade before the draft.
It will happen during the draft, or not at all. As for me I am pulling for the "not at all". Terron Armstead > Fat Albert -
You could say that 33 is essentially a 1st round pick as well. Regardless of what you 'essentially' call those picks though, I would not want to move from the 12th pick to the end of the 1st round just to get more picks when you're already flush with picks. You simply don't have enough roster spots.
Like I said, if you're moving down a reasonable amount of picks, and plan to use a combination of currently held picks and picks acquired via a trade back, you can then use those to move back into the end of the 1st round. Yes, the "best bang for your buck" is in the 2nd/3rd rounds, but the best talent and least amount of risk still resides in round 1. -

If we can get the 2 twos & 2 there's from San Fran, come on. You're looking at:
1/31, 2/2, 2/10, 2/22, 2/29, 3/12, 3/15, 3/20, 3/31 (and rest is known).
Come on. We're bringing Madden back to the days of glory.
After the 4th you can trade all the last day picks to anyone interested for next year picks. -
