Potential Trade Options

[adam]

Ok, so I took a look at the trade values for both of the Bears 2nd round picks and which teams had compatible trade value options based on the picks they had. The options are based on the total value the team would get back, the options are in order of value the Bears would get back, so Option 1 has the most value.

For the 43rd pick, it has a value of 470. These were the combination of picks I could see for that pick plus or minus giving up a 7th to make it work:

Option 1 - Atlanta (2nd and 4th)
47  ATL - 430
119  ATL  - 56

Option 2 - Baltimore (2nd and 3rd) - This one is nice, getting a 2nd and a 3rd. This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player. BAL has 9 total picks and multiple picks in the 3rd and 4th. So I can see them as movers. This is my projection. I think BAL moves up from 55 to 43 and gives us 92.
55  BAL - 350
92  BAL - 132

Option 3 - Denver (2nd, 5th, and 6th) - My least favorite option would be to only get an extra 5th and 6th. They also have 10 total picks.
46  DEN - 440
178  DEN - 19
181  DEN - 17.8

Option 4 - NY Jets (2nd and 4th). The Jets have 8 total picks so they may use the extra pick to move up.
48  NYJ - 420
120  NYJ - 54

Option 5 - Philadelphia (2nd, 3rd, and 6th) - Another great option if Philly is willing to give up 3 picks. This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player. Philly has 8 total picks, so they may use the extra one to move up.
53  PHI - 370
103  PHI - 88
190  PHI - 14.2

Option 6 - NY Jets (3rd, 3rd, and 5th)  - 2x 3rds would be good here. The Jets have 8 total picks and 2x 3rd rounders, so they could use them here.
68  NYJ    250
79  NYJ    195
158  NYJ    27

Option 7 - Baltimore (2nd, 3rd, and 4th) - If we took the later 2nd from Baltimore, this would be very appealing with a late 4th to make it work. This is probably the best option and the value is 470 to 471. This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player. BAL has 9 total picks and multiple picks in the 3rd and 4th. So I can see them as movers.
60  BAL    300
92  BAL    132
134  BAL    39

Option 8 - Pittsburgh (2nd, 4th, and 6th)
49  PIT    410
124  PIT    48
198  PIT    11

Option 9 - LA Rams (2nd and 3rd) - This one is nice, getting a 2nd and a 3rd. This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player.
52  LAR    380
104  LAR    86

Option 10 - Atlanta (2nd and 4th)
47  ATL    430
143  ATL    34.5

Option 11 - Dallas (2nd, 4th, and 5th) - This one gives us an extra 5th compared to some of the others giving up only a 4th.
51  DAL    390
123  DAL    49
164  DAL    24.6

Which options do you like for pick 43? I will do pick 50 next:

[adam]

Here are the options for pick 50 (value: 400):

Option 1 - Tennessee (2nd and 3rd) - A 2nd and a 3rd is good value for this pick.
61  TEN - 292
93  TEN - 128

Option 2 - LA Rams (2nd and 3rd) - A 2nd and a 3rd is good value for this pick. This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player.
57  LAR - 330
104  LAR - 86

Option 3 - Seattle (2nd and 3rd) - A 2nd and a 3rd is good value for this pick. This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player.
59  SEA - 310
101  SEA - 96

Option 4 - Buffalo (2nd and 4th). This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player.
54  BUF - 360
128  BUF - 44

Option 5 - Philadelphia (2nd and 4th). This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player. PHI has 8 total picks and 2x 4ths, so they could use a 4th here to move up in the 2nd. 
53  PHI - 370
146  PHI - 33

Option 6 - Las Vegas (3rd, 3rd, and 5th) - Would Gruden want to move up to get a 2nd back? If so he would have to give up both of his 3rd's.
80  LV - 190
81  LV - 185
159  LV - 26.6

Option 7 - Denver (3rd, 3rd, and 5th) - Is Fangio/Elway willing to deal? If they want to move into the 2nd, it's at least 2x 3rd's. Denver has 3x 3rd round draft picks, so they may be willing to move up into the 2nd using 2x of them. They also have 10 total picks. I could see DEN doing this to get another 2nd rounder. They have 3x 3rd's, they could give up 2, and then would have 2x 2nds and a 3rd which is favorable for them.
77  DEN - 205
83  DEN - 175
178  DEN - 19

Option 8 - Baltimore (2nd and 4th). This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player. BAL has 9 total picks and 2x 4ths.
55  BAL - 350
129  BAL - 43

Option 9 - Kansas City (2nd and 3rd) - A 2nd and a 3rd is good value for this pick. This team is competitive and may want to move up to get a blue chip player.
63  KC - 276
96  KC - 116

Which options do you like for pick 50?

Looking at 43 and 50 respectively, I would love option 1, then option 2.  Getting two 3rd rounders while keeping two 2nds would be fantastic.  I love it when you do this stuff.  My only fear is that we risk missing out on one of those 1st round graded WR's.

Thanks, for me, I think BAL, PHI, and DEN are the most likely to make some moves with us based on the trade values. They have extra picks to use without losing a pick in that round. So they can give up their extra pick to get more value.

I definitely think their will be more trading than normal this year.  With a lot of questions of health and not being able to work out some players, I think teams will go after players they have on their board. It will be teams that think they're close and teams with extra picks. 

I think if  they have someone drop like Delpit to 43 , they take him. A few others rated higher players that they would probably.  take , like a Josh Jones/ OT . Then trade 50 with some of your options. 

I think NE would be a good option.  They're always trading and don't have a second round pick plus Pace has traded with them several times.

This is my favorite and one of the more realistic, IMO.  I'd even add our later 6th round pick to get it done.  Baltimore moves up 17 spots, but really for us it's like trading down seven spots with our first pick (since we have pick 50) and then ten spots with our second pick (50 to 60).  The biggest issue, as some have mentioned, is that I think you increase the risk you miss out on one of the top WRs who might slip out of the first round, but this put you in a really good position to come out of day 2 with a DB (#2 CB or SS), OL, and WR in whatever combination makes sense.

I could see us moving back twice, so something like the Jets would be interesting. Move from 43 to 68, 79, and 158. Select at 50, then trade 68 for 80 and 121 with LV. Select at 79 and 80, and 121. We would have 6 picks in the top 163.

50, 79, 80, 121, 158, 163
