LMAO -- in that exact moment this photo captured that kids utter mancrush on Blackmon, look at that smile! Trading up for the presumably 2nd-5th to grab Blackmon from even the 25th pick would cost said pick and probably our 2nd, 3rrd and 4th for this year alone plus a pick next year. Perfect example is the Falcon's absolute sellout for Julio Jones.
» First-round pick (No. 27):
Traded to Chiefs
» Second-round pick (No. 59):
Greg Little
» Fourth-round pick (No. 124):
Owen Marecic
» 2012 first-round pick
» 2012 fourth-round pick
All of that for 21 slots in the draft order. I'm sorry but if we don't even know if Alex, Colin or someone else will be the QB of this team in 3 years I don't want to set us back 3 plus years and 5+ picks just to select another college phenom wideout who is completely boom or bust. Bottom line is that if we we're going to go all in Blackmon we might as well try and go after Luck at point.
