Default Just curious-would BB and Pioli do this?

It looks like Cleveland will finish with a decent record, or maybe even make the playoffs(especially with their easy schedule ahead)-so it looks like Cleveland's pick to get McFadden is all but out of the picture.

If that'll be the case, IF Jerry Jones and Wade Phillips offered to trade both of their #1's to you guys for your SF#1(assuming it's a Top 5er), would BB/SP accept it?

Personally-I would rather get a deep threat WR to replace Glenn and a blue chip CB with those 2 picks, but McFadden is STILL very tempting.

They would do so with a smile on their face.

The Patriots have been notorious for trading down, so the answer is yes with one caveat. The Patriots would request from the Dallas Cowboys both first round draft picks and Marion Barber.

Depending on where the Cowboys picks end up being on the point value system compared to the Patriots' pick, I think that's exactly what the Patriots intend to do.

It very well could end up being the Cowboys 2 First Rounders and their 2nd rounder, if it end up being a top 5 pick.

Its stupid to even act like BB/Pioli are predictable. For all we know they really want McFadden.

Jerry Jones has quite the ego. Also Darren McFadden plays for Jerry Jones alma mater, so his emotions may play a factor in the Patriots draft trade extortion.

Jerry Jones might be known for taking risks, but including a good RB in a trade for another RB that hasn't taken an NFL snap is an insult to him.

I still remember after they drafted Quincy Carter, they showed Jones in the War Room, and he was so pleased with the pick he had made.

And then he told Carter that they both had the same birthday. I swear to God the way he said it, he was so amazed, he acted like it was Fate that they draft him BECAUSE THEY HAD THE SAME BIRTHDAY.

It was unreal. Thank God for BB is all I have to say.
