[quote=SmootSmack;683225]Probably more likely to keep Backus at LT now. Not for sure though

And I still think Trent Williams has the slight edge over Okung for us even if both are available.[/quote]

so you would see us going w/Williams at 4? He should be around later than that I would think if they can trade back.

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 5)
 

Possibly still at 4 because KC and Seattle right below us also need OL

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 5)
 

Why would Trent Williams have the edge over Okung? I heard Williams is a RT in the NFL, not a LT

I know you have inside info and a direct link to the mothership Smoot, but I just can't believe Trent Williams has a slight edge over Okung on any teams board.

Williams has several possible red flags. I don't get it?

Williams should be a good Tackle for a long time but if we take him and leave Okung on the board I will be left....once again, scratching my head.

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 5)
 

Not sure what Williams brings over Okung... but both are top prospects at their positions.

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 5)
 

I'm not basing it on any inside info.

I just know that a)some believe Williams is actually a better fit for Shanahan's offense than Okung, b) Williams has the flexibility (LT and RT) that Shanahan has said he values c) Williams has only really played LT for one year and while most would say he's much better suited to play RT right now, they would also say he has the skills and talent to be a dominant LT and d) he's not as safe a choice as Okung but has tremendous upside (and downside as well) and that's just the type of risk that Shanahan tends to thrive on

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 5)
 

I wonder what the likelihood would be of trading down and getting two first round picks instead of Okung? We could pick up two OL that way since we have limited picks in the draft after the McNabb deal.

In this case with so few picks, I would trade down if possible and acquire other picks. We have too many holes to patch, especially at LB and OL. I would sign Flozell for a year and pick up a RT and LT or a player that can play multiple positions in the line.

Rams just released Marc Bulger

I would throw up if we sign Flozell.....I just hate that bastard

Well I guess they'll pick up Bradford. Campbell would be a good backup/stop gap for them as well. A high 3rd rounder? I'll take it.

they've got AJ Feely there as a stop gap

not giving up a 3rd rounder for a backup I don't think

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 5)
 

Why do I have a feeling of us swapping our fourth overall pick now, for Brandon Marshall and Denvers 11th overall pick, and getting Trent Williams or Charles Brown or Bulaga
