Well, I've got it... my perfect draft day scenario for the B & G.

We trade back w/ the Lions getting their 20th overall and 3rd round pick. I'd like to think there's some hope for getting their 20th and 33rd overall, like if we package our 1st w/ one or even two of our later round picks. Personally I'd like this but doubt it could happen. Anyway here's what we get:

1st round: Oher or Rey-Rey if only one or the other is available. If both are available... I honestly can't choose and promise to love either with all my heart LOL.

3rd round picks: best center available and DE Sidbury

5th round: best FB/RB available. I'm going the opposite direction as the change-of-pace crowd, as I've argued before. Personally I think CP can still be the slashing homerun hitter he was in the past... he hasn't had that luxury w/ us for the most part but with 1) the upgraded line we should have by opening day 2) Betts and the bruising FB type we draft wearing the opposing LB corp down early on... I think Portis can be that guy (and I think he'll be more valuable to us in the long run as well). I see CP as a change-of-pace RB in the first half and then taking over more in the 2nd half of games.

6th round: best available WR we think could return punts

7th round: best available safety
