If I were Minnesota, I'd stay where I am in the draft and take Blackmon after St. Louis takes Kalil (who I also think would be a great pick for St. Louis). Ponder needs Blackmon.

I expect the Skins to try to sign either Vincent Jackson or Dwayne Bowe in Free Agency.
I don't figure anything. I'm just saying if those teams gobbled up Luck and RG III, maybe somehow the Redskins would get lucky and land Blackmon. There's a mock draft having us drafting him, but I also see mock drafts with us drafting RG III. I don't think the teams would necessarily have little incentives in trading down. As matter of fact, they probably wouldn't have to trade down very far to pick up extra draft picks AND still land their guy. Trust me, I have a feeling there's going to be plenty incentives in trading those picks down.
