Also, if we go Tackle in the 1st, as I've said before, I'd ideally like to see Cam shipped immediately for another pick in this year's draft if we can swing such a deal for a high 4th or thereabouts. I'd be ecstatic with such a turn of events.

I see two potential opportunities for changes along the starting o-line this year, so I'd hesitate at this point to call it set.

JPJ to replace Scherff at RG this year and eventually take over at C would be dope, ideally in a trade back scenario.

They're not moving on from Cam or Scherff this year.

If they were, they would have already moved on from them at this point in the season. They've shown you their cards at this point.

We'll see.  I think the moves are at least plausible because you don't create holes for yourself walking into a draft where if things don't fall the way you expect you can't fill the holes properly.  Scherff being moved on from vs. going from starter to back up or grooming next year's replacement in a timeshare are two different things and again, you don't create holes for yourself walking in to a draft.  Holding Cam through night 1 of the draft is potentially them not wanting to show their draft intentions.

I'm not trading up that high for Nabers if it's me making the call though.  I want dude to be squeaky clean without any doubts in my mind for such a move.  I have some doubts, small as they are, about Nabers.  #8 is too pricey for me.  #14?  Sure. 

I've already said I wouldn't trade up for any WR if it required significant comp (#48 or next years 1st).  If we must and its Odunze or Nabers, please god let it be Odunze.
