This is getting annoying but let's go over it because it isn't that complex. Name me one team that wanted to trade into the top 10 AND didn't want Sanchez? The likelihood of trading down was small especially when reports out of NYC the day before the draft were that the Giants woulda moved down to 14 to pick up Heyward-Bey. So the Raiders would have moved somewhere between 8-13 to be sure they'd get the player they wanted (with the added bonus one of those teams are the Broncos who wouldn't have made a deal with Oakland).

And what's this value of pick garbage? They should have picked someone they didn't want because Mel Kiper thinks so?

Next, did you read THIS article...it clearly states Chicago wanted Mitchell two picks later.

So by your thinking....Crabtree will be better, Mitchell will have to deal with faster players....does that not apply to Crabtree? Or only Mitchell will be facing faster players?
