Trade down Scenerio


Squirrel

Recommended Posts

Right now, I can't see a situation that a team will want to trade up to #1 even if a new CBA means much lower salaries for the top picks. The Bills at #3 know there is no sure fire QB worth a top 5 pick in the draft so they may be shopping their pick as much as anyone else and moving up to #3 would cost less than #1.

Unless a situation presents itself (like a player blowing up the combine and another team has to him no matter what), I am not optimistic about trading down.

I agree 100%. At this point we cant decide on a clear cut # 1 despite the elite prospects of this draft being an area of need for us.

That being the case and my opinion is likely to change over time but right now A.J. Green is a talent we shouldnt pass on.

With a rookie cap teams will be more willing to trade up. Im hoping some GM gets a hard on for either Fairley or Green and wants to move up. This isnt like past years where teams had to break the bank to pay for a #1 pick. There will be a rookie cap.
i'm sure they'd be willing to, but why would they? i just see no incentive to do it other than it would be a cheap trade.

i seriously doubt we could get a first from next years draft for the spot. seems like a huge waste to me.

there are no good solutions.

One way we could trade down is to look at the Skins. They need a top pick QB. At #9 they would'nt their player of choice, so offer them the #1 and possibly a player (Smith or Williams) for #9, #40 second round, and McNabb,

and a future pick next year. This would solve our QB problem and still get a good DT or WR at #9 and at #40 get BPA. Thoughts ?

You put alot of thought into this, IMO too much. Too many variables with a new coaching staff coming in. I also don't think we have that bad of a QB problem. He was a rookie for goodness sakes.

I like the idea of looking at the skins for their pick but, not McNabb. You don't want anything to do with his or Haynesloaf's contract. From what I understand they can't be restructered until after the cba is signed. But, if you could get their 1st and 2nd this year with what ever other picks (kinda) even it out...........I could live with that. also...being an off year as far as a true #1 pick....we should not expect to get full value for the trade, if we pull the trigger.

ps......we will get offers for our pick, that is a lock.
