    I doubt it. Oakland can stay put and get either Cooper, White, or Williams at 4. They're just as far as competing as us, they can't afford to trade multiple picks.

    It is hard for teams to get a read on what we are going to do.

    The talk out of the franchise has been high on Mariota. We will see how his visit goes later this week.

    We sent half the FO and coaching staff to Oregon for his pro day and Web's and Whiz's comments have been very positive and direct.

    I don't see anyone trading up for Leonard Williams.

    If there is a team that wants Mariota they will come up and get him.

    The first pick is locked.

    The rest of the league is sitting around waiting to see what we are going to do.

    Titans are on the clock.

    If the Titans trade for a '16 1st, they better be trading to a team that sucks (or will likely suck next year). Getting a future 1st from the Eagles who will likely be picking 20-32 again next year doesn't do much for me.

    Like Ian Rappaport said, we are going to have a lot of options at#2. Honestly, RW's phone should be on the brink of burn out right now fielding all the calls from teams interested in trading down to #2.

    I could almost see us going WR In first and petty in the second.

    If we don't go QB I'd honestly rather see us take Cooper than Williams.

    Maybe I overthink this stuff, but IMO none of our coaching staff's love for Mariota surprises me one bit. The more we talk him up, the higher his perceived value goes up, which hopefully helps to sweeten a trade deal.

    Doesn't matter how "ho-hum" Mariota looked at his pro day, because right after that at our private workout (which no one else saw) he looked like an All-Pro...that kind of stuff does not surprise me a bit.

    That said, the other teams are likely more cynical than me and see through this as well.

    I agree. If we pass on Mariota, no reason to waste a day 2 pick on a QB when we have a ton of other needs. Go all in on Mettenberger.

    Love it, X.

    The Jets deal is the best one for us I think.
    Cooper and Clemmings 1 and 2, take a RB in the mid rounds and the rest on Defense. Then after what we hope is progress with Mett next year we will have two 1sts in 2016.

    This should be the gameplan.

    For the Jets, not sure why they wouldn't do it, they don't sell the farm and they have to get a better QB in there or they are going nowhere.
