Turf Show Times When all is said and done, what do you "hope" happens this weekend?


There's been a lot of chippy-ness going on, and some general infighting as we have all settled into our various draft hope camps.  There's the Bradfords, the Suhs, the Trade-downs, and even the occasional Clausen.  But even though we express it all differently, at least deep down we believe we know what is best for the Rams in general.  So I'm just curious as we sit here on NFL Draft eve, what do you sincerely hope happens tomorrow?  Not what you think the press or public wants to happen, just what you think is the best for the team.

I'll kick it off.

My ideal situation, we draft Suh, trade for Campbell, pick up McCoy/Pike whoever a try as our qb of the future, or decide to find our quarterback next year.  I have all sorts of reasons for this desire, the Bradford/Clausen fans, have their own reasons as well. 

So lets here ye, what do you "hope" happens this weekend?

Turf Show Times Would you be interested in Big Ben?

As I live in Pittsburgh, and have to put up with a lot of Steeler smack talk.  This developing situation has been particularly interesting to me.  This was recently posted on NFL.com, discussing the steeler's options with Big Ben (http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d8178b2b1&template=with-video-with-comments&confirm=true). 

If a deal could be reached (and I'd assume it would be a straight take of our first round pick, or at best a swap of respective first rounders) would you be in favor of it?  I understand this directly violates the four pillars (unless assault slipped in there somewhere, when I wasn't paying attention.  But otherwise, he'd be one of the better quarterbacks to become available in a long time, proven success, still in his prime, under a fairly reasonable contract, mobile enough to survive while our o'line gels.

I think I would be more comfortable with taking a risk on a proven perfromer with non team releated, non drug issues, than any rookie quarterback.  But hey, thats just me.
