Most mocks now have Rams picking Austin @16. Should help trade back.

It appears the Rams are putting out solid info that they're going after Austin with the 16th pick. That's good.

There are a number of teams sitting in the 20s that need a WR (the obvious suspects are the Vikings, Colts, and Texans)and you have to believe one of them will try to move 1 spot ahead of the Rams (maybe wishful thinking).

The real question is: If Jones or Mingo are on the board @15, does the team take a pass and trade back for extra picks?
I guess the cost of poker goes up.

If they have a targeted player available at 15, i don't think they move back.

Rams have 16th & 22nd, they have more bargaining power to trade ahead of us to get Austin if they think another team is going to trade up just to steal Austin from them.....

If any of the 3OTs are available, or Mingo/Jones, no way we move back. That said, knowing that might make a team who desperately wants him to pony up more than they normally would.

I'd be surprised if the Panthers/Bucs pass on him.
