[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 810375, member: 10086"] IMO it might be wise to avoid putting all our eggs in one basket. Trading for the #1 pick never follows the draft calculator and can put an unusual amount of collateral at risk. However, that said, we don’t necessarily need to stand pat either. As an example and just some ideas we could trade #14 + #46 (and do the opposite of last year) and move up into the top 8-9 overall. That would still allow us two 5th year day 1 options which I’d personally prefer not to give up. Then to compensate for the loss of our 2nd round pick, package our 3rd #78, one 4th #111, and one 5th #142 to move into the back of round 2 again. We’d still have the normal 7 picks but it would look something like this.. # 8 overall (5th year option) #31 overall (5th year option) #61 overall (2nd day pick) #110 overall Leaving 2 Sixth rounders and 1 seventh rounder to fill out depth. That also gives us a realistic chance of landing 3 starters from our first 4 choices. I like this because it gets us really involved in sniffing out that dynamic player at the top with ongoing positioning (think 2018 Buffalo strategy) but without sacrificing a second presumed starter late first round. By doing this, we also could consider throwing in a future 2020 2nd rounder to get into the top 6-7 overall and lock our guy if he slips out of that top 5. Again it would shift our resources slightly forward and infuse some much needed talent now rather than later, all the while holding onto 3 first and second day picks. [/QUOTE]
