Made 2 trade offers and no responses
Give them a bit longer. They are probably busy! I'm sure they will answer soon!!

I might be willing to trade down from the 4th pick, as long as it's not too big of a fall(down to 8-9 max)... I'm leaving this here for about an hour. If I don't get any good offers, I will make my pick.
@WarGhost21, @21isSuperman, @jvan1973, @danlhart87, @MPStack...in case you are interested...
I'm planning on taking one of the two players I know you have in mind! I'm just waiting to find out who it is!
-
There goes the whole plan of me moving up!! Whoops!! At least I will get a better pick

Honestly, I'd probably go with either the Edge or Dickerson, but in more recent times, you have to love what Addai did with the team, before injuries began to plague his career. He could have been right up there with those two names if he would have been hurt less often!

I'm up for another team if necessary as well!

Bucky Brooks and Daniel Jeremiah have finally reached the AFC South in their Perfect Pairs Series! For those who don't understand what it is, the duo break down the ideal picks for the top two picks of each NFL Team, one division a day. Here's who they have us selecting:
Brooks' perfect draft pair: Georgia OLB Leonard Floyd (Round 1, pick 18); Texas A&M OL Germain Ifedi (Round 2, pick 48)
Brooks' take: The Colts need to find a pass rusher. At this point, Floyd's production doesn't match his potential, but there's no denying his athleticism and what he could potentially bring to the table as an edge rusher for the Colts. The Colts also want to make sure they get QB Andrew Luck protected. Ifedi can come in and play right tackle. He can help protect Luck and help them get back to running the football more effectively.
You can find the rest of the AFC South teams Perfect Pairs here, as well as links to other divisions!
What do you think of the players they have us taking?

This is beyond hypothetical. Elway is a GM who always wants more than he is willing to give. He wont budge on Kap's salary so what makes you think he would do something like what you suggest?
This isn't meant to be reasonable. It's a what if, and most what if's don't happen anyway. I'm simply asking how many would make this trade if it came up!

Not trying to burst you bubble -- I get that this is a hypothetical....
Would I do it? Yes.
But I don't think it can happen. It doesn't look like Denver has its own 4. Looks like the 4 they have is a compensatory pick and I don't think those can be traded until the 2017 draft. So, Denver doesn't have a 4 to trade making this deal likely as dead as can be....
Sorry..... I often play the part of Scrooge and the Grinch around here......
Lol, I will switch that to a five I guess! Thanks for the tip Mister Scrooge!!

I just can't see the Broncos offering that much for the 18th pick in the draft. Maybe this year 1st & 2nd, but not a 1st, 2nd, 4th, next year 2nd for the 18th pick & a next year 5th.
True, but this is a hypothetical scenario in which Denver is desperate for a top 2 QB and will do anything to get it! Add to that the fact that they don't have many holes to fill aside from QB and they may want to do anything in their power to move up! I have changed it a bit for more realism though! See what you think now!

We already have one of these. It's not exactly the same, but we have it every year (plus its a little more fan friendly since we get multiple picks). Take a look!
I'm making this one similar to that, but these are the top 5 picks in the draft, not the Colts picks! Thanks for info though! I may just have to submit something to that one!!

Imagine yourself in Ryan Grigson's shoes on draft night... Got it? Good! So its the 18th pick and we are closing in on a selection when the phone rings! Its Bronco's GM John Elway, and he has an offer. Lets say two of the three teams who really need a QB (Rams, 49ers, and Browns) pass for a better option. In that case, one of the top two QB's in the draft (Wentz and Goff) is still sitting there at 18. The Broncos really wants the QB still there to be there QB of the future, but they don't want to risk losing him to another team. Elway says he will offer his first rounder this year (31st) as well as his 2nd (63rd) and 4th (136th) round picks this year for the 18th pick and a 5th rounder next year. Now we think about what we could get with this. With the 31st pick, we could potentially pick up Noah Spence (fallen due to question mark over his head), then with our two second rounders pick up Vonn Bell and Nick Martin. An extra 4th rounder will help fill in holes as well. The loss of the 18th wouldn't be easy, but for this much potential, I feel it is worth it!! It will help fill needs by using extra picks!! I would accept! What would you do?

The rules are simple! Whoever guesses the first five picks in the draft correctly and in order wins bragging rights and recognition! If two have the same predictions and get them all right, they both win! If nobody guesses the order correctly, then whoever gets the top five correct (but out of order) wins! If multiple people get this, then the person whom's guesses are closest to the actual picks wins! Have fun and good luck!!

They would only do it for a QB that they like who has fallen to us. Their first pick would most likely be Bosa or Elliot.
Understandable, yet Fredrick and Martin are franchise players who they wouldn't trade for anything. They might send someone halfway decent as well as next years 1st and some picks this year but its still a very off chance. Plus, there is no real threat by us or anyone behind us for a ways (aside from the Jets if they can't strike a deal with Fitzpatrick). They would see it as a waste and wait and trade not quite so much for a later first rounder around maybe 28 if they were smart.

I would trade our 18th to them for Travis Frederick or Zack Martin and we also swap 2nd.and 3rd. round picks.
There is no way they would offer either of those two as they are key linemen for them. If we had a top 10 pick maybe but they would be off their rocker to ship one of the two here for the 18th pick.

Spence has definitely cleaned up his act in the past year, and he has become a great young man along the way. Nkemediche is definitely overrated for his questioning problems, which he has yet to fix and clean himself up. Spence is by far the better of the two in that regard!

Thats one crazy offer which I would normally take without a second thought. Ultimately, though, I couldn't accept! The odds are to stacked against it. With Luck back next year, we will presumably have a much better season, and more than likely make the playoffs. Yes, the AFC South is getting much stronger around us. With a decent draft and a healthy Luck, we would still be the best team in the division IMO! Add to that the fact that this years Cowboys record was really just a fluke, and you will find that both ours and the Cowboys first rounder next year will be in the mid-upper 20's and thats not worth an 18th, especially since we already have our own so its not a profit. In most mocks, Kelly likely will go anywhere from lower round 1 to the very top of round two and it is extremely doubtful that he will still be here (as he would be the player we would presumably be targeting with a drop that large!! So when its all said and done we will lose our highest pick we may get in the next ten years for a high 1st rounder, an iffy 2nd rounder (as all other options that would drastically help this year would be gone by that point, so its just a gamble for Kelly without a backup plan) and a 3rd rounder (which we have had a lot of success with that round the past few years but what are the chances it continues for a fourth year straight?). It just doesn't even out, especially considering the Cowboys won't trade the third rounder in this bundle because they will consider it to pricey for them as well! So no, I couldn't accept, and I know I'm one of the few, but it just makes no sense to me! If someone asked for a trade down still in round one, preferably top 28, I would probably accept, but this is just to much wishing and not enough logic!

I'm not sure people without a subscription can see this, but their site is constantly flowing, based upon FA, trades, combine results, pro days, interview. I'll bet the list you can see is the first early list of the top 100 draft prospects. That ranking changes as necessary all the way until draft day. I can access his latest top 32 for you, and Ramsey is #4. So you don't agree with him and the scouts on the list you saw. How about this one?
1. Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Ohio State
Production, measurables, competitiveness, and ability to impact a game put him on top for now.2. DeForest Buckner, DE, Oregon
Rare size, football intelligence, and maturity are all things I saw when I interviewed him.3. Laremy Tunsil, OT, Mississippi
He has left tackle talent like D’Brickashaw Ferguson, but he has had off the field issues. It remains to be seen how he will handle NFL power rushers. Also, he was in the room when Robert Nkemdiche fell out the hotel window.4. Jalen Ramsey, DB, Florida State
Versatility, athletic ability, and matchup skills make him a rare find.5. Myles Jack, OLB, UCLA
A great athlete who can play on either side of the ball and multiple positions on defense. The knee injury has knocked him down slightly. A great pro day and he will be on the rise.6. A’Shawn Robinson, DT, Alabama
Men this big, that move as well as him are hard to find. He reminds me of Vince Wilfork coming out of college. He can play almost all of the defensive line spots with the exception of right DE in a 4-man front.7. Reggie Ragland, ILB, Alabama
A classic team-leading middle linebacker in the mold of CJ Mosley. He should be a 100 tackles a year player for a decade.8. Joey Bosa, DE, Ohio State
A finished product with all the techniques, and strength to start as a rookie and be a team captain for many years. Has he already reached his ceiling?9. Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota State
A very good athlete with a top flight arm. He has the football aptitude to play at a high level for a decade. He has the arm strength to throw the ball in bad weather, as witnessed one day at the Senior Bowl.10. Emmanuel Ogbah, DE, Oklahoma State
A high quality individual with NFL size and production as a pass rusher. His 24 sacks in the past two seasons is tops in this draft class.11. Jared Goff, QB, California
Tremendous college production and athletic ability. Slightly built, which could be an issue, but his quick release should keep him out of trouble.12. Noah Spence, DE, Eastern Kentucky
He might be the best pass rusher in the class, but his off the field issues make him a risk.13. Kendall Fuller, DB, Virginia Tech
An injury put him in the background since the season ended, but he is a top flight athlete with NFL skills. He is the whole package when it comes to character, leadership, and football intelligence.14. Eli Apple, CB, Ohio State
Exceptional size and athletic ability for the corner position. He has athletic ability like Richard Sherman and the maturity to play a long time.15. Ronnie Stanley, OT, Notre Dame
A top athlete for his position, light on his feet, but like Tunsil, may struggle early against power.16. Darron Lee, OLB, Ohio State
A ‘hybrid’ player in the mold of LaVonte David. He can play in the box as a run and hit backer or he can walk out on a true slot receiver and play M-M. His 4.46 forty was all I needed to see after watching him play.17. Shaq Lawson, DE, Clemson
A versatile defensive lineman with production. Watch the Notre Dame game against my #15 Ronnie Stanley to see the talent. Still needs some work on technique, but his initial quickness and pass rush will get him on the field early.18. Laquon Treadwell, WR, Mississippi
A well-built athlete who may not run the fastest 40 time, but he plays fast enough and loves to block. I sat down with him at the Combine and was impressed with his knowledge of coverages.19. Jarran Reed, DL, Alabama
He came to the Senior Bowl to demonstrate his competiveness and versatility. If your team needs a run defender with underrated pass rush skills, he’s a candidate.20. Derrick Henry, RB, Alabama
Henry is being advertised as a second round player who is strictly a front side downhill runner with limited vision. I interviewed him and there’s a lot to like about this young man. I believe he will show the NFL people he catches the ball better than people think, and at 247 lbs. he will be a solid NFL running back.21. Hunter Henry, TE, Arkansas
Henry is the best tight end in the draft. He has the size, hands, and potential to be a dangerous weapon.22. Leonard Floyd, OLB, Georgia
Georgia produces outside linebackers year in and year out. Floyd had some up and down moments in 2015, but nonetheless is what 3-4 teams look for at OLB.23. Paxton Lynch, QB, Memphis
Lynch has the size, speed, and cannon-like arm to play and succeed. He reminds me of Joe Flacco with better foot speed.24. Jack Conklin, OT, Michigan State
Conklin walked-on at Michigan State with a chip on his shoulder. He is strong, competitive, and good enough to play on the left side. He has better lower body strength than the two tackles rated above him.25. Vernon Hargreaves III, CB, Florida
Many have him higher than this, but his forty time is a yellow flag, and his height is not ideal for the modern game outside against 6’5 wide receivers. Open field tackling can be an issue at times. Things he got away with in college could be an issue in the pros.26. Robert Nkemdiche, DL, Mississippi
He does a lot of things, but doesn’t really jump out on film. His off the field issues and coachability are yellow flags, but he is a talent.27. Mackensie Alexander, CB, Clemson
Alexander says he’s the best CB in the draft and loves to shut down top receivers. He didn’t run at the Combine, he is 5’10, and never intercepted a pass in college. He’s still in the top 32 players, but just not as high up the list as he would like to be.28. Taylor Decker, OT, Ohio State
Decker is a right tackle in the NFL even though he has played on both sides in college. He has the traits, personality, and work ethic of a classic NFL starting offensive lineman. Could struggle early, but will quickly develop into a dependable pro lineman.29. Joshua Perry, OLB, Ohio State
Perry is a big Sam linebacker with excellent leadership skills. Football is very important to him and any team that interviews him will want him on their roster. He also has the size and get-off to rush the passer.30. Kevin Dodd, DE, Clemson
Dodd is still a bit raw, but his 12 sacks last year was a glimpse of things to come. He has fine character and work ethic to develop into a solid defensive end.31. Ryan Kelly, C, Alabama
Kelly has all the traits of an NFL center. Smart, strong, big, and competitive. Athletic enough at the second level, has good technique, and he is sound enough against big nose tackles. He put on a show when running at the Combine.32. Sheldon Rankins, DT, Louisville
Had an impressive discussion about football with him at the Combine. He has what a 4-3 defense needs at the 3 technique. He has burst, good hand usage, and desire to finish.Remember, this is the latest Big Board rankings, not where they will go in the draft. And it is not just on watching a game on video and looking up combine numbers. They go to games and senior bowl, they go to the combine, they go to pro days, they interview prospects, sometimes do a follow up interviews with players on their radio show. They evaluate like they would if the have to recommend or choose for a club, like they did before. What is not realistic to you is very realistic to them, and similar scouts, GM's etc... but not all. That is why no GM hits 100% every draft. And I hear Gil Brandt, Kirwan, Polian, etc say there is typically only 16-18 real prospects that grade round 1 every year. Thus by default, 14 teams or so are 'reaching' in round one. I'll put up Chris Landry's top 32 after.
Fantastic!!! Thanks for sharing! I may just have to get my own subscription there!! And yes. This one looks much better than the old one!
