    Pretty interesting take on things. In brief Tampa is looking to get back into the first round after the revis trade. This writer brings up Colbert and Tampas gm being pretty close. Anyways he says we should trade our first pick for Tampa second and third and Blount. Blount was hardly used last year and the last time we picked up a 250 pound rb with a trade worked out pretty well for us.

    No way. Trading that far out of the first round is a big drop...it would take a lot plus a first next year to go that far...and no thanks to Blount (he's ok but I dont think he's the answer).

    If they trade down it'll be in the first not completely out...I think Colbert might have said something like this about staying in the 1st round and such...but I dont remember.

    I've seen a lot of scenarios of trading out of the first because the general consensus is that there isn't a great deal of difference between the talent in rd 1 as there is in 2 & 3. I personally have trouble with the idea of giving up your first rounder, as much sense as it makes, I just struggle with it for some reason. I'd prefer they do it your way and just move down in the first if they do it at all.
