=================================
Laram – If a team wanted to trade up to 10, to take A.Cooper…I would trade out and let them have him.
I like Dorial-Green-Beckham more Bigger, faster and more physical. He might have the best ball skills I’ve seen this season..
Knows how to shield the ball from defenders, correctly shifts the ball to the proper hand when running and going to the ground. Impressive
He does let the ball get into his body too often, but I think that can be corrected.
Runs good routes for a man with his height. sinks and breaks well..
So I take the trade down and he would be my 1st rd pick!!
I know that doesn’t help you with 1-9, but you already did a good job there IMO

DeadpoolJust trying to get some kind of feel for the first 9 picks after the 1st week of FA. Any and all feedback is not only welcome, it is encouraged.
1. Tampa Bay Jameis Winston – just do not see any other player here.
2. Tennesee – this is where it gets interesting. Mariota? Trade with someone for Mariota? I don’t like either of these scenarios. Personally I think it will be the Leonard Williams. They need help all over the defense, and Williams fits.
3. Jacksonville With a defensive minded HC and spending money on offense this offseason and having their QB, it has to be a pass rusher right? Dante Fowler? Not my favorite player by a long shot, but the experts love him.
4. Oakland another team I have yet to figure out, ever. This has to be a WR right? Raiders love speed, so my thought process is Kevin White.
5. Washington New rumors have said the Washington Football Club will take Mariota if he falls to #5. Its smoke season, so are they trying to entice a team to trade up with them or in front of them? They need defensive line help right? They signed Knighton and Paea so Shelton is out. Vic Beasley? Yeah Vic Beasley is the pick for now.
6. New York Jets Marcus Mariota, simply because I do not see him sliding down any further. Whether its the Jets or not.
7. Chicago They need DL and LBers so Danny Shelton makes sense. So does Shane Ray. Right now I would go with Danny Shelton.
8. Atlanta pass rushing help badly. Defensive minded coach. Gregory or Shane Ray fit the bill. Shane Ray.
9. New York Giants OL help? A DE? Scherff? Gregory? Reese is going to stick to his board as he always does, so that has to give the edge to Randy Gregory.
So to recap
Winston
Williams
Fowler
White
Beasley
Mariota
Shelton
Ray
GregoryLeaving:
WRs: Cooper, Parker
OL: Scherff, Peat and Collins
DE: Dupree
CB: Trae WaynesOf those 7, the Rams have met with Collins and Scherff, both at the combine. We also know the Rams love their SEC guys. So that would be Cooper, Collins and Dupree.
So as of today, I would think those 7 players would be the ones to take a closer look at. Again, trades will happen, even the Rams could move up or down as they have in the past. I could really see Cooper a target for a team that needs a WR. I think teams like Washington and even the Jets are teams that wouldn’t mind moving down.

I’d avoid that guy.

Legal issues[edit]
Late on the night of October 3, 2012 Green-Beckham and two other freshman teammates, linebacker Torey Boozer and receiver Levi Copelin, were arrested on marijuana charges by the University of Missouri police department after the three were found in possession of 35 grams (1.2 oz) or less of marijuana.[24] Green-Beckham and the others were parked in a vehicle south of Memorial Stadium in Columbia at the time of their arrest. Two other unnamed individuals—also Mizzou players—were in the vehicle as well, but were released after police determined they were not involved in the drug possession.[24] After being processed at the campus police station Green-Beckham, Boozer, and Copelin were released on signature summons.[25] In response to the arrest a spokesperson for the MU athletic department said that all five players would be suspended from the next game, October 6 against Vanderbilt. Other disciplinary action may also be taken by the team[24] and handled internally with no additional public comment on the issue.[25] The case was resolved on October 16, 2012 when Green-Beckham entered a guilty plea to a reduced charge of trespassing in Columbia, Missouri Municipal Court. He was fined $200 plus court costs.[26]On January 10, 2014, Green-Beckham was again arrested on a marijuana charge.[27] Officials with the Springfield, Missouri police department confirmed the Mizzou star was arrested on suspicion of drug activity and booked into the Greene County, Missouri jail in the early morning hours of January 11. Police found a pound of marijuana in the car he was riding in.[27] According to the Springfield News-Leader, Green-Beckham was originally arrested for possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute following a traffic stop but was later released without charges, pending further investigation.[28] Authorities, citing an ongoing investigation, declined to provide further information on the incident.
§Dismissal[edit]
On Friday, April 11, 2014, Dorial Green-Beckham was dismissed from the University of Missouri football team. His dismissal followed his prior drug-related problems and an incident in which he allegedly forced open an apartment door and pushed an 18-year-old woman down several stairs. Green-Beckham was not charged in the incident, with police citing a lack of cooperation from the alleged victim. Head coach Gary Pinkel said in a prepared statement, “This decision was made with the best interests of all involved in mind. Dorial’s priority going forward needs to be focusing on getting the help he needs. As we have all along, we will continue to do everything we can to assist Dorial and his family. We care deeply about Dorial and his well-being, but hopefully he can benefit from a fresh start."Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. " Philip K. Dick
March 16, 2015 at 2:06 pm #20742canadaramParticipantTotally get the need to address oline this offseason and in the draft. That said the only way I want them to pick oline in the first round is if there is still a need at ROT. Even then I’d rather not pick a right tackle at number ten. I don’t know what trade down opportunities they’ll have though. There will be some good choices for the interior line in the 2nd, 3rd and maybe even the 4th round.
March 16, 2015 at 2:31 pm #20744HerzogParticipantI was going to say the same thing. Being a Mizzou fan…The dudes a time bomb
