The Draft


Wesson44

Recommended Posts

There are rumors that teams this year want to move down in the draft teams specifically mentioned are the Eagles (fourth), Lions (fifth), Browns (sixth), Bills (eighth) and Dolphins (12th) ,Cowboys(eighteen)as having made calls trying to trade down. Also the Jets and Vikings have two picks in first round...and maybe the Falcons and 49ers wanting to move up. So what kind of trades up or down do you see coming?

Not sure but it almost makes me wish Jerry Angelo was still around. With a draft full of 2nd and 3rd round talent he would be sure to hit on a few gems.

 

Seriously though, I don't think you can say before a draft who'll move up or down. It really depends on who slips to whatever spot that some team perceives there to be a bigger value for them than the cost of giving up some other pick they have to move there.

Agreed Cracker. It costs a ton to move up in the first. And we ain't got much to give. It seems like everyone wants to move down. Why do I have a feeling we know we can get a 3rd round pick to move back a few spots? It seems like all the guys we are bringingin are late first rounders. Not guys you'd expect us to take at #20.

I got a feeling that since everyone wants to move back, the price of moving up will be lower. I don't see the Bears getting a 3rd to move back a few spots unless a few is like 30 or 40 spots, to 60 or 70

Yep. What we might get is a team saying something like they'll give us there #2 this year and their #1 next year. Most years I would say that would be great, but this team has never been so desperate to get an infusion of young talent.

That would still be pretty awesome this year.
