No, we would slightly win the point value, but that goes out the window when QB's are involved.

If we are trading out of that pick, I want it to be for a QB needy team, and they are going to have to overpay, not be a wash.

Don't care about Freeman.

Denver’s 2nd round pick would be 46, Dallas owns a pick 51.

Even if it was the 46th I’d say no. You don’t ever want to be drafting top 10, but when you do, it’s a rare territory to get as close to a sure thing as possible.  As for adding the extra picks, the success rate of players taken that low nose dives soo much that I don’t think it’s a fair return.

So my answer is no I wouldn’t.

Add the why. 

because at 7 we are very likely to end up with a top-tier talent in Okudah, Simmons, or Brown. 

15 is too dangerous. Very real chance the 3 of them are gone in addition to the top four OT prospects and Kinlaw.

If we have the guy we want at #7 we should stay. I have done mocks where we trade down in the 2nd to acquire more picks.  Why?  The second round is loaded, especially with players at need positions for us.  Same goes with the 3rd.  I understand the need to accumulate more picks, but I don't think the 1st round is the correct round to do it unless the draft board goes awry for us.

Trade down with Denver to 15, they get 7, you get, 51, 95, and another 3rd next year, plus Royce Freeman? 

In a heartbeat. A first, second, and two thirds? That's good return for a top player in the league, and we don't even know what the guy we'd take at 7 is going to be yet.

You don't, "we" as in the people who make those decisions do, and have prepared for almost every possible scenario that could/would happen in front of us.

Well, the Panthers may not be doing that as we have a fool at the helm, but most teams are.

      Trading Down Could be a Gold Mine in This Draft!!

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      This is why it's probably going to be hard to trade down. This draft is fairly light on top tier talent but pretty deep in talent of that next tier down. I don't think there's going to be a lot of teams clamoring to move up and numerous teams might be entertaining moving down. Not a good market to trade down if that's the case.

      And if they can't find a reasonable trade down (I think we would need a 2nd rounder this year bare minimum to make any trade down worth it). I would definitely expect Dan to trade UP for an EDGE or LB in the top half of R2. Just makes too much sense. We also have a plethora of mid round picks to use as ammo.

      I don't mean to make this a mock draft thread particularly,  but every time I do a mock I have been investigating the talent that goes off the board between picks 8 and our low 2nd rounder pick 57. There is a gargantuan amount of talent still left on the board in the top half of the 2nd round every time I do one. Losing our original 2nd round pick to the Bears as the last pick of the Bryce trade stings badly .  I'm particularly looking at elite players like Carson Schwesinger (LB), Luther Burden (WR), Matthew Golden (WR), Maxwell Hairston (CB) , Nick Scourton , Landon Jackson, Donavan Ezeraku (all DEs/OLBs) . The sweet spot in this draft really feels like pick 15 to 40 - ish. This is why the Bears should be making bank with this draft. I don't know how realistic a trade down is from 8, but if we could pick up any teams higher 2nd rounder and still grab their 1st? We'd be cooking with gas man.  Say for example we get Tet McMillan at pick 8, if you wait all the way to 57 you stand the chance of not getting any impact pass rushers in this draft. And I don't think this team can afford that.  I'd personally love for them to take a break from drafting wrs in R1 or R2 (i think we've taken one in the top 2 rounds in the majority of the past few years), and stick to repairing the nfls worse defense in history (in terms of total points against iirc, or was it yards? Also included my most recent mock as an example . Don't put too much into the  late round selections lol
