I've been on record before that while I wasn't expecting another Washington-type megadeal, it would be a huge failure on Snead's part to not manage to trade down from #2, as someone should really be drooling over the QBs.

Now, I'm a lot less sure. With Houston openly shopping their pick, and a lot of reports that they'll pick Clowney if they do use the pick, the Rams might end up with no takers worth the trade down.

Right now, if I had to guess, I'd say there's still about 75% chance the Rams trade down... but that's down from my previous 99.99% estimate.
 
I'd have to agree. I'm a lot less sure of a trade now than before all the hype (Manziel excluded) about the QBs died down. I'd put it at somewhere around the 60% part of town.
 
Right now, I'd say not likely. I think this whole Manziel deal was our last ditch attempt to get the Browns to trade up to 2, but I don't think it worked.

I thought we would've been fine settling for Matthews somewhere from 6-8, but I have a feeling we're focused in on getting Robinson right now, with how much Snead has talked about there being just a few freaks at the top of this draft in his interviews lately. I think he wants to get one of those freaks, and the latest Robinson falls is to 4, imo.
 
I'd say it's about a 35% chance right now, but keep in mind that's down from a 60% chance just yesterday, lol.
 
I'm going to get off the fence and predict it at 50% :p

Nobody does the trades until draft day anyway so there may be stuff in place depending on who picks whom.
 
70%
Houston has to make there decision first.
