I am really concerned that the Broncos will be "stuck" at 12, i.e. there will not be an impact DL, LB or OT who is worth that pick. I know they want to trade down. Do you think Chicago, Detroit or Arizona would be willing to move up to get (RB Rashard) Mendenhall?

Dennis,
I would be surprised if Chicago or Arizona moved up. If anything, I think they would both like to move down. The Lions, on the other hand, never cease to surprise. Matt Millen has been known to make panicked, last-minute decisions on the fly. The Eagles may be the most likely to come up, as Andy Reid has shown a tendency to fall in love with players and aggressively move up to secure his target. If there is a run on offensive tackles, it would not be a surprise to see the Eagles move up.
