| I hear Gruden really likes Cadillac Williams, do you guys think he would trade up to the #1 pick to ensure Tampa gets him? With the 5th pick in the draft the Niners would have a chance at Rodgers or Smith for a better price. |

| Sounds good but I think Gruden knows that if he stays at 5 he can get Caddy. Cuz I think Brown and Benson will go before Caddy but you never know |

Will never happen. The RB core is way too deep this year. 3 top 10 RBs and a handful of 2nd round talent make training up for a RB a losing proposition. Unless someone truly falls in love with Brown, no one is going to trade up for RB. |

| The 2 auburn backs are 1 and 2 for RBs and Gruden really likes Williams. With Miami, Browns and even the Bears in need of a running back, Williams might not be there at #5. If not Tampa, how about Arizona. Emmett Smith retired and Shipp is coming back from a broken leg. |

Benson hasn't done his individual workout yet...he might vault back ahead of one or both of them. I don't think the Browns are going RB...I think they're going QB. And I think the Bears are gonna stick with Thomas Jones, who was running very well before Rex Grossman got hurt and any semblance of a passing game went with him. Arizona was trying to trade for Travis Henry, but that kinda died last I heard...they are certainly a possibility, but I agree with Squadra...the pool of RBs is VERY deep this year, and you can get a real good prospect even in round 3 or 4. _________________
