If the ILB's are gone and patterson is gone, I would like to get rid of that first, unless some other WR (Hopkins, Allen, Woods) jumps up the boards after the combine.

I don't know, he's traded up and down in the past. He traded up for Harrison Smith and Toby Gerhart. His trade downs off the top of my head were for Kalil and Chris Cook. I'm only talking about early (1st & 2nd) round trades.

Cordarrelle Patterson - WR - Player

Russ Lande of the National Football Post hears Tennessee WR Cordarrelle Patterson has been "very unimpressive" in team interviews at the Combine.

Lande suggests Patterson's poor interviews coupled with an up-and-down showing in Combine pass-catching drills could result in him "sliding down draft boards." As an athlete, Patterson remains a 6-foot-2, 216-pound freak. He ran a 4.42 official forty with a 37-inch vertical and explosive 10-foot-8 broad jump.
