Could/Should we trade for pick No. 1?

[DTJ 95]

Just a thought - no rumours.

Could or should we trade for pick number 1?

Weideman might be a perfect pick up to play CHF in front of Hogan. If we're lucky they could develop together and be the backbone of our forward line for the next 10 years.

What do you guys think? What could get it done?

[demon-4-life 467]

Can't see Carlton giving up pick 1.

No chance. The Blues won't give that up unless we give them an unbelievable deal... which we would be silly to do.

Weitering is this years #1, not Weideman (expected to go 6-12ish)

Despite playing well forward, Weitering is mainly seen as a Key intercepting/rebounding backman.

More importantly there's no way Carlton would trade out this years pick #1 as they are in love with Weitering

And then I went back to bed lol.

Let's just pretend this question was never posed

And their second favourite is Francis.

[beelzebub 23,320]

No. Its not a game

[Moonshadow 17,675]

They'd do it for something ridiculous, like pick 6 and next year's first and second rounders

[beelzebub 23,320]

You cant give BOTH 1st and 2nd rounders from 2016

. You do your 1st Round...then thats it. OR you can do 2nd 3rd 4th and 5th if you like but cant trade your 1st

Dems da rools

[Sir Why You Little 37,016]

Hahahaha that was genuinely funny to read

High Draft picks have been so good to us in the last decade...

[xman97 108]

On that topic though, we could trade for pick 2 (Schache). Maybe package up our pick 6 and Howe (If the Pies deal falls over). Or Pick 6 & Dawes. Or Pick 6 & an early 2nd rounder (Toumpas trade).

But I think we can get Weideman at Pick 6, who is more than capable of being a better player than Schache. If Weideman wasn't injured for most of the year, everyone would be talking about him as pick 3 imo.

[Nasher 33,613]

I wouldn't bother. The price would be too high, with too much downside risk.

That kids dad played for Brisbane and he desperatly wants to go there, after Brisbanes problem with retention I can't see them giving up pick 2

[chook fowler 19,457]

Terlich and M Jones should get it done

[rpfc 28,343]

Google "Redskins trade for RG3"

It will give you [censored] nightmares...

Shudder.

Note: Yes, I am aware it was the 2nd pick overall...

[Gorgoroth 12,941]

Rams did well off the redskins ?

You have to be kidding me with this! His rookie season was impressive and was a sight to behold. He was a heisman trophy winner in college and was named pro ball and offensive rookie of the year in his first season. RG3 was a lock to be a qb1 anywhere in the league. He is now broken down due to some unfortunate injuries, but was always worth trading up for on draft night.

You want a real QB bust? JaMarcus Russell really gives you nightmares!

[ILLDieADemon 804]

I think the silly season is getting to you mate!

The Rams seem to know more than you do.

Honestly, if RG3 isn't a bust, then no-one is. Tebow won a Heisman, he also has been to the NFL Playoffs...how is he in the pocket? How are his mechanics? And he was taken at 25 in the first round...

RG3 is an absolute bust at 2.

And as someone not too partial to racial epithets - couldn't happen to a nicer team.

[Gorgoroth 12,941]

Rg3 until he did his knee was bloody good, since he did his knee he is poor, very very poor.

Tebow was never going to make it in the Nfl. Florida ran a very college like offense that isn't seen in the nfl. Also he had a fantastic offensive line in college. Completely different player To RG3, who was drawing comparisons to warren moon in the lead up to draft night. The rams simply couldn't afford to draft another QB because at the time they were still trying to justify the Sam Bradford selection by keeping him as their guy (another QB decimated by injuries and a questionable offensive line) The Rams made a sensible trade based on their needs, but if they didn't have Bradford they would have taken RG3.

I fail to see how an injuries to top picks after they have been selected as a pro bowl QB classify as a bust.RG3 goes down as a "what could have been" if his knees weren't absolutely destroyed. A real shame, regardless of your feelings towards Washington (I don't like them either for the record)

RG3 still has a career passing rating of 91.4, sure it's not Tom Brady like (96) but RG3 sits higher than Brett Favre (86) who was a legend of the game.

RG3 could flat out play before getting hurt.

RG3 was flat out one-dimensional and while that was a great dimension, he didn't want to improve and run a proper offence - we are getting a bit Inside NFL here but that trade was a terrible decision by Snyder and set up the Rams: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/rams-send-players-acquired-in-rg3-trade-out-for-pregame-coin-toss-223532066.html

My point isn't that bad luck should be foreseen but that trading up to get the top pick (or the 2nd) is frought because of what you have to give up to get it and if it doesn't pay off you will get people who will say you screwed up.

It's not captain hindsight either, I remember plenty of people say to not do it but Snyder wanted his toy and now he can play with it himself, the team he owns certainly isn't.

[Mach5 4,767]

I just wish we had have used pick 1 & 2 on Scully & Butcher back in 2009.

Then our midfield and our forward line would have been sorted for the next decade.

[What 18,810]

Howe and 6 for pick 1

Howe can stay in VIc still and Carlton will offer him the same money as the Pies youd think

We need to brainwash him into wanting to play for the Blues.. any psychics here?

Carlton would tell you to eff off.

Why would they do that?
