Must fill the forum with something, so here's stuff I've read of late:
St. Louis Rams: Ways they are looking:
1) Could be looking to deal for Michael Vick with Philadelphia
If not, they:
2) Might be interested in making a deal with Tampa Bay (#1 overall for #3 overall + 3rd + Josh Johnson was the rumored deal on the sites linked below)

According to the same article, the Bucs:
1) Have Suh graded significantly higher than McCoy (some draft analysts have been going back and forth on the two lately)
2) Potentially have Jason Pierre-Paul graded higher than Eric Berry if they stayed at #3
My take: Can see a rationale for the majority of these rumors, but they look a bit too shaky in details for my liking. But for the sake of discussion:
As for the Bucs and Eric Berry, there's some kind of stigma with scouts/teams against drafting a Safety in the top 3. Probably from a value standpoint. I personally don't agree with that notion. In comparison, the way people talk about Pierre-Paul's physical size and potential, he looks like he could be a quick riser on draft boards. If the previous is true about Berry and Tampa, it would also further substantiate Tampa's want to get into the top spot for Suh.
For the Rams, they can bolster their QB depth chart by both acquiring a QB via trade (Vick or JJ). They can also position themselves to draft a QB if they want to do so, and can get another pick by which they could continue to fill in areas of need. They can probably land short-term depth and long-term future starters with the value that'll drop to the 2nd and 3rd rounds.
Your thoughts?
