Join us for the excitment that is the NFL draft..

[Lefty Noob]

Good morning, everyone!

The start of the NFL Draft is still several hours away, but the speculation and trade talks are already under way. The Raiders are possibly looking to trade out of the top five, and the Falcons may move up a spot to #2 in order to secure LSU DT Glenn Dorsey.

While we're waiting for the draft itself to begin, feel free to stop in and chat about the latest rumors surrounding the event!

Cool we're chatting already, oh well who does everyone think will go number 2?

Hey, when it comes to the draft, there's no such thing as too early!

One way or another, it'll be Dorsey, I think - either to the Rams or to the Falcons. Most experts seem to think that the Rams would rather have Chris Long, though... that's why they're looking to flip-flop picks with Atlanta.

I've heard about the flip, flop, but I also heard the Falcons have said the only trade talks they've made have been about trading down.

Yeah, and Jeff Ireland 'slipped' and said the Dolphins were drafting defense.
The NFL Draft makes liars out of many, many men. At the end of the day, it comes down to, how badly do they want Dorsey?

ESPN says the Pats may try to trade up, get ahead of the Jets, and draft Ohio State DE Vernon Gholston.

I think they're trading somewhere, whether it's up or down? How knows?

[Lefty Noob]

Trade rumors all over the place, too...
At the end of the day, where will Jason Taylor, Chad Johnson, Roy Williams, Anquan Boldin, etc. wind up?

[Lefty Noob]

For those interested, ESPN's Pre-Draft show is about to begin.

I'm not going to watch yet, I'll wait until after I mow the lawn, which will be in a little bit.

[Lefty Noob]

They're talking with the Rams executive VP right now, who confirms they are listening to trade talks, though they won't confirm that Atlanta's one of the teams involved. He also says that they're looking at either Dorsey or Long. Nothing new there, really. Word I'm hearing is they want Long and are looking to trade down to #3 to get him.

[bears9]

They know who they want, so maybe the won't take 10 minutes

[Lefty Noob]

Baltimore may want to trade up to #2 to get Matt Ryan, but they don't think they have enough to move up that high.

Michael Smith is reporting the Rams will take Chris Long at pick number 2.
