The latest SBNation mock draft has included trade talk working out the possibilities. Obviously Baltimore is a big trade candidate with no clear #6 selection, and other teams maybe over-stepping to grab a quarterback. Here's the mock:
6. (Trade) Los Angeles Rams: Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota State
The Rams currently hold the No. 15 pick, and if they want a quarterback a trade may need to happen. Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome has never been averse to trading down. This trade could be somewhat similar to the deal the Rams made with the Bills in 2013. That Bills gave up picks Nos. 8 and 71 to the Rams for Nos. 16,46,78, and 222. With two second-round picks, the Rams have the ammunition to move up and get a quarterback. If they want one, they may have to bite that bullet. The Rams could look to move in front of the 49ers, who could take a quarterback with the No. 7 pick.
Clearly this does make sense. No outright obvious one with the top five prospects out of the way. Unless Bosa or Ramsey are at six somehow, Ozzie will be waiting by the phone I presume.
15. (Trade) Baltimore Ravens: Eli Apple, CB, Ohio State
If the Ravens do trade down, the eventual target could either be a cornerback or pass rusher. had Apple returned for his junior season at Ohio State, some believe he would have developed into a top-10 pick. Groomed properly, the Ravens could coax that value out of him with the 15th pick.
Ravens trading back, receiving a possible top CB prospect, and extra picks for Oz & Eric. Win-Win for the trade on both sides if the LA Rams receive a capable quarterback.
What are your thoughts, are you okay with the Ravens trading down? What players, if still on the board would stop you from trading down?
