If Dorsey wants Alex, he could easily take his QB at 1 and then trade down from 4 to get more picks.
It’s already been reported that the Jets and Bills might want to trade up for a QB. Dorsey could get a big haul since the 4th pick will be extremely valuable for a team wanting 2 of the remaining QB’s left.
Dorsey might be able to get 21&22 (and maybe more) for the 4th pick from Buffalo. [Reply]

They can get the same thing that Alex would bring from Josh McCown and wouldn't have to give up any draft picks or pay him $17M to do it. [Reply]
The Cardinals are your best bet for getting something of value for Smith. And if I'm the Cardinals, I'd rather put that 2nd or 3rd round pick in a package and trade up for a QB. [Reply]

Allen (6'4/237) has been showing off his rocket-launcher-of-an-arm throughout the Senior Bowl practice week while also displaying some of the problems with accuracy we've seen throughout his collegiate career. As flawed as the Wyoming gunslinger might be in some aspects, it's become increasingly clear that the toolsy quarterback will likely be in play for a selection near the top of the draft. ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr., for one, projected him to go No. 1 to the Browns in a recent mock draft. Allen would probably be best served entering a stable situation where he would be able to learn on the bench for at least a year or two before being thrust into the fire, though, and that's not the Cleveland Browns.

It would be the Browns if they trade for Smith. [Reply]
Baker Mayfield IS participating in North's squad final walkthrough practice today, per Senior Bowl source. He's made strong impression on and off field this week despite dealing with family issue. #9sports

If Cousins comes to Denver he'll be making closer to $25M per year than $30M per year. If Elway didn't overpay for Peyton Manning and DeMarcus Ware, he certainly won't do it for Kirk Cousins. [Reply]
