Raiders' First Day Picks for 2007 Draft
Ok, for my totally uninformed prognostication of what the Raiders should do:
- Swap picks with the Cleveland Browns. They get the number 1 pick to pick up Jamarcus Russell while we slide to number 3 and pick up their second round pick (36 overall) and their 2008 first round pick. Detroit will pick up Brady Quinn with the number 2 overall pick, leaving the Raiders with Calvin Johnson all for them at number 3.
- Sign David Carr to a 2 or 3 year deal.
- Trade Moss and Courtney Anderson to Greenbay for their third round pick (78 overall) and a conditional 2008 pick.
- And so, we would have picks:
- Round 1 (3rd overall) - Calvin Johnson, WR
- Round 2 (33rd overall) - Ryan Kalil, C
- Round 2 (f/Clev, 36th overall) - Justin Blalock, OG
- Round 3 (65th overall) - Trent Edwards, QB
- Round 3 (f/GB, 78th overall) - Josh Beekman, OG
- Round 3 (comp, 99th overall) - Ryan McBean, DT
