[QUOTE="Pack93z, post: 144967, member: 288"] It all depends how the draft unfolds, I personally believe that Johnson will go number one, which opens the door again on the Randy talks. If that happens, one of two players are going to slide, Thomas or Peterson in my opinion, depending how far Peterson slides, I might try to move into the late part of the top ten to grab him. I don't see Landry sliding which would fill another huge need. Of course if something really odd happens, where Johnson would fall off, well then go get him. But even a positive drug test won't have him sliding far enough for us to grab him. Other Blue Chip players don't fill a immediate need so I don't see us trading up to get one. If they were to fall to us, well we would take them I would guess. The issue I see with us trading down, is how much value are we going to get to move down. NE isn't going to trade both firsts to move up to 16, unless someone is sliding that they want, which they need safeties like us. The middle of round one to early part of round two have players of about equal value in my opinion, so I don't know if there will be trading partners available, again how the draft unfolds. To me, I would probably stay put and take the highest rated player on the board, well within reason of need. To garner exta picks or players, somehow I think KGB will be traded someplace on day one. Just have that feeling that someone running a 3-4 in need of some pass rush will make a play for him. [/QUOTE]
