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

[Pocket$ $traight]

I am finding two things interesting:

One, typically, the first pick overall is identified and contract negotiations have already begun by now. That could be a sign that someone (us) may want that #1 pick.

Second, with the Redskins eying Berry report(s), that may create the market for a team to move up and get our #4 and get us the extra picks that I think everyone would be happy with.

If Allen/Shanahan are able to create a market where there was none, they are worth their weight in gold.

I was thinking we were going to pick up Betts again and trade him to the Vikes for AP and their 1st rd pick!

Don't forget our 5th round pick. It's been trendy this offseason.

I wonder if all the Berry talk is smokescreen to get someone to trade with us (paging Mike Holmgren!).

I am wondering which team duct taped Schefter's hands and mouth so he can't text or talk today. He probably knows the first 9 picks, plus trades, but can't say anything!

Team JLC so he can put out his ridiculous rumors.

He's not saying anything interesting right now, if you're curious

Rams still getting trade inquiries on No. 1 pick, but still nothing serious. They anticipate keeping it. More chatter about No. 33 #NFLDraft

We could seriously use that pick for our RT to go with Okung/Trent Williams at LT.

Huh...?

Browns will offer most of their picks for Bradford
Posted by Michael David Smith on April 22, 2010 5:51 PM ET
Cleveland Browns front office boss Mike Holmgren says he's enamored enough with Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford that he's going to make one final pitch to the St. Louis Rams to try to acquire the first overall pick.

Holmgren told ESPN's Michael Smith that he would be willing to trade most of the Browns' 10 picks and maybe some 2011 picks for Bradford. But Holmgren thinks the Rams will turn him down.

"They shouldn't do it," Holmgren said. "They need a quarterback more than anyone in the world."

So Holmgren thinks, like everyone else, that the Rams will take Bradford. But he'll try to convince them to take his trade offer instead.

"It's not going to happen," Holmgren said. "I just got out of a meeting and I told everyone, let [the board] come to us. That said, I'm going to go make the call."

Someone has a loose mouth in the Cleveland FO or Holmgren is just stupid...
