Do you really think team officials are feeding these analysts real information? If anything it's disinformation (ie the rams want to select Sam Bradford with the no. 1 pick) This makes sense. The Rams may be able to entice the Skins to trade up, give up Campbell and the no. 4 overall pick (and probably something else) and they'll still probably get the player they want (Suh) and not have to pay him No. 1 money.

I heard this being talked about today. The thinking is based on Snyder's reputation of going overboard to get a name player that he wants. I wouldn't blame the Rams for trying, but I think/hope we've gotten beyond that way of doing business.

They're definitely getting real information, it's just that the information is always changing at this time of year. Besides, Schefter has said this wasn't based on any inside info per se just a hunch of his. A hunch which he deducted based on his inside connections.

Maybe so but my bet is teams are whoring the media kind of like Scott Boras does to get the best deal for his players. he stirs up enough half-truths through these vultures that a team panics and drops big coin for his player.

I hope the Skins don't jump off the cliff.
