I'd trade up for him IF we HAD to...maybe not all of the way to 3 but certainly up to 7 or 6 again though, that's assuming we HAD to in order to get him. It would ultimately depend on the cost of the trade however.

Washington IMHO, gave up entirely too much to move up to #2. I would not have made that deal.

I'm putting you on the list, Ken. The question is could you see yourself trading up. All the talk was of 3 or 4 and very little was of 7. To trade up to seven, you have to trade WITH seven. But since I guess that sillier to me than even trading up to 3 or 4, I'm putting you on the list. When you trade up one spot from 8 to 7, you can only justify it if that team is going to steal your pick.

The fact that some other team lower than you might trade with them, means 2 things. One that the prime player no. 7 would have picked falls to you and .........more importantly,


you have just gotten rid of a COMPETITOR for drafting Weeden.

BTW, you're the only one so far.

You have to remember, I said I am all for trading up for a guy if you think he is the real deal.

I said I would have easily given up 3 first round picks for RG3 because I think he will be a Super-Duper-Star.

"When you suck long enough, you get a Hickey"

No way!

I just put THE Truth and Dolphaholic on the list as being more fevrently in favor of this idea than Ken who was only lukewarm to it.

No. I don't think we're going to take him at #8 if he's available, so..No.

Rick

You should have another choice....

Choice B. If you want the phins to trade up to number 3 and draft tannehill....and at the same time continue your morphine, crack and pot addiction , CLICK HERE.

That's why I call you, SamSam, the Sensible.

So you put me on the list for me saying exactly what?

---------------------

"When you suck long enough, you get a Hickey"

This is what Im saying, as I already stated in another thread....


I never said I would or would not trade up for Tannehill, but I have always said I would trade the farm for RG3.

---------------------

"When you suck long enough, you get a Hickey"

Come on, A & O. A soldier has got to stand up to fire no matter what the odds.

Would you or would you NOT trade up for Tannehill if it was the only way to assure getting him?

You got to take a position!

Ok, here is my best answer...

IF I WERE JEFF IRELAND, and I felt he was a franchise QB, then I would give what it takes to get him..

also

IF I WERE JEFF IRELAND, and I wasnt positive on him being a franchise QB, then I would not trade up for him.

But of course, I have no clue who will be what in this league, I am not a paid scout. I break down film as available to me, the best I can.

I do have a man crush on RG3, though and think he will be one of the top 3 QB's in this league in 6 years....and Andrew Luck will not.

---------------------

"When you suck long enough, you get a Hickey"

Okay, you are squarely in the middle, the non-committal, so I'll take you off the list.

That's exactly the way I see it as well.

Well said A&O.

And as far as luck goes, I think he's a more athletic Eli Manning.

I'd love to have him but I don't look at him the same way I do RG3 who I believe is going to be better.

Aqua & Orange is back on the list.

I think it's more likely we'll be able to trade down to get him. But, if Ireland is 100% convinced (and I don't know how he could be) that Tannehill will be a franchise QB then do what it takes to get him. I'm fine with him at 8. I'd be ecstatic if we got him in a trade down. If we had to trade up, then Ireland is putting his whole career on that move. It's one thing to take a QB with your high 1st rounder and another to move up further for him.

I'm with the RGIII folks, actually. On the earlier poll, I was (1) Manning, (2) RGIII, (3) Tannehill (4) Flynn. (I think those were the choices).

Why am I back on that list?

Wow. I just want to win a Superbowl.

making lists is kinda just hoping we fail and having proof to shove peoples faces in it.

"When you suck long enough, you get a Hickey"

Why not, we done every stupid move possible this tear...passed on fisher as hc, passed and didn't even try for manning, traded Marshall for a 3rd rounder, cut Merlin, Taylor retires but we keep a sorry GM, so why not give up 3 #1s to move up for a bust that would make sense with the current management

We didn't pass on Fisher, he passed on us.

---------------------

"When you suck long enough, you get a Hickey"

We passed on him by keeping Ireland, who then said no to Peyton, traded Marshall, and cut merling.

Aqua's off the list again.

Will try to trade down to acquire picks and then draft Russell Wilson.
