Default buying dropped domains

I'm looking at buying a domain that is getting ready to be deleted.
This domain ranks very high "number 2 on Google" for a somewhat difficult keyword.
If I actually get this domain, what would be the best way as far as SEO goes, to use it?

1. 301 it to my other site that is also competing for this keyword?
2. Mirror my other site to this new domain and 301 my old site to the new one?
3. Mirror my old site to the new site with no 301?
4. Quickly make a new site and have all the products link to my old site?
etc etc


What way would I get the most out of it as far a hits, link juice, etc?

Default Re: buying dropped domains

I'm not sure if you will benefit from that #2 ... at least not right away. That's because when the domain is dropped and gets a new owner, Google "resets" all ranking, PR, etc.
