No reasons behind this other than I love to speculate. Someone mentioned this on FBGs:

Atlanta trades Matt Schaub and the 10th pick to Oakland(or any of the top few teams that could use a QB) to move up and select Calvin Johnson, who went to school at nearby Georgia Tech.

There's no way Oakland will trade down from 1 to 10 for an unproven Matt Schaub. Atlanta would at best get a 2nd rounder. Now if Atlanta could get rid of Vick this way and move up like that, then they'd be on to something, but the owner is an idiot so don't expect anything.

They could prob get more than just Schaub + the 10 for the pick, and Oakland obv. has a ton of holes. Its very early obv. but I could see a lot of teams trying to move u--for Calvin Johnson, for Joe Thomas--and this seems reasonable.
