If you're at 12, and you have six guys you want and someone offers you a 2nd rounder to move back 3-4 spots, you take that 2nd rounder. That's the thinking I'd have. If there's a chance the player i really want won't be there where I'm gonna have my next pick, heck no.

Looking at it like that, you might as well drop down to 15 and get an extra 3rd from Washington, because they want to take a QB or drop down even further and get an extra second. That way drafting a guard with our first pick would become a more realistic option, as well, making KRK the happiest man on the planet.

I know he's fast and strong. no one would have ever thought I could play at the lowest levels of collegiate football so I am not really trying to compare myself to him. I don't think he can put on very much weight and still have his elite speed. Then again as the season wears on it would be easy to see him losing weight as the grind of the season takes it's toll. I can see him getting the kick return duties for whatever team signs him. He just seems like an injury waiting to happen.

Grute IS aggressive. What if he trades back for another 3rd the packages the 3rds and moves back into the 2nd? THAT would be Grute-like.

Firstly, there's proof that there's a place for undersized, explosive guys in today's NFL. DeSean Jackson and Tyreek Hill come to mind, instantly. DeSean plays at 5'10, 175 and Tyreek at 5'10, 185. Both a bit taller and heavier, but DeSeaon came into the league at 169. There's some room left on Brown's frame to put on a bit of muscle, as well. I think that's the main reason he's consistently slotted towards the back of the 1st round. If he had Tyreek's height and weight, he'd be gone by 15.

Secondly, he'd really be an addition to our roster. Adams is a slow possesion guy, Allison is a slow possesion guy, Moore is a slow possesion guy and MVS and St. Brown both have some speed, but they're long striders who have to get into top gear. He'd be the perfect complement to our group of receivers. Someone who can take a screen to the house, but also take the top off of a defense on a double move.

That doesn't take away the concerns you mentioned, though. It's just that those concerns are the reason he could still be around at 30 and, stacked up against other potential players still there, I'd take that chance.
