The Tennessean does not expect the Titans to select USC DT Leonard Williams at No. 2 overall.

Redskins GM Scot McCloughan suggested he won't take USC DT Leonard Williams at No. 5 overall.

What say ye sons?

I'm not on board with trading up for him...not to 5. For some reason, I can't make myself not want a LB or two.

I think the Raiders take him if Jacksonville doesn't.

But if he's there at 5...

Movin on up!!

With the Skins mockers leaning heavy to Beasley right now, who are you counting on at 13? Danny Shelton won't make it... Trae Waynes, maybe.... Andrus Peat? If it cost us something to not just get the best player in this draft, but also not be stuck at 13 reaching for Shane Ray or Randy Gregory.... PAY THE PRICE! i like Andrus Peat, but that pick aint sexy. trading up for big Leonard is sexy baby. and dancing George likes sexy.

I would really hate for them to trade up from #13 and my assumption is that they would have to give up #31, too. The Saints aren't one player away on defense from fixing that thing, so the more high value, high talent pieces they can add the better.

I do see them perhaps trading up from #31 to get into the 20's if they see something they really like. I feel like they need an offensive lineman that can play right away and a defensive player that can start with those two picks.

He'll be great everywhere else.. but somehow he'll be Sedrick Ellis 2.0 with us.

wouldn't go that far, there is a risk factor involving Leonard but his ceiling is just too great. You gotta swing big and do your best to coach him up.

I get weary of top 10 can't miss dt prospects. They tend to miss often.

They wanna give their young qb a solid option IMO. Cooper is a safe and solid pick.

i get it but there's a ton of options. They can probably get a DGB AND a Dorsett or someone else later on.

PS I nailed both Raiders picks in our mock draft last year so I rule. Look, i get the sense for Cooper but its very plausable they can have Williams/Fowler above him on their board.

Here's another question without starting a whole nother thread: ESPN's NFL Nation just did a mock draft and Fowler dropped to 5.

Would that change anyone's opinion in here if we were trading up for him instead of Williams?

Of the edge guys he feels the most like a sure thing. Definite WANT.

And for the record, while i'm not opposed to moving up for a player, i don't want to get into a bidding war and mortgage the rest of the draft on it. 31 would be off limits for sure.
