Totally agree with all that. I guess the question is, if the first round went as I projected, meaning that Hunter, Johnson, Barron and Revel are all gone by #26, do the Rams view any of the remaining CBs as a guy who is significantly superior to the rest of the "second tier" at the position (which could include Hairston, Thomas, Trey Amos, Benjamin Morrison and Darien Porter). If the Rams see the players in that group as really close, a trade back (moving no more than around 20 spots) could be a very good gamble, as you might end up with the one of the CBs you wanted AND more picks.

That is all true. Without having access to the Rams' board we're just spitballing, but if the Rams board stacks the way you suggest then a trade down makes a ton of sense. In fact, that is my expectation ... and if they don't trade down I believe it will be because they can't find a trade partner, not because they don't want to.

I know mock draft sites have their limitations, but I trade back with Jacksonville all the time (Pick #36, 4th pick in round 2) and Hairston is still there the vast majority of the time. IMO that's the move assuming the NFL Mock Draft Simulator [www.nflmockdraftdatabase.com] is remotely close to being reality.

  Thanks. I think this illustrates why a trade down is favored by many.
