I posted this in another thread but but I will repost it here if this is our gameday thread. We don't get nearly as much as we think for trading up a given pick. If you use the draft value chart, which we should because our trade with NE last night was almost dead on, then here is what we would get if we made the following packages to trade up: 1) If we package our original 2nd round with our original third we could have: 2nd: 35 3rd: 93 4th: 116 5th:156, 166, 167 6th: 15 2) We could add our 2nd round pick to our new third and have: 2nd: 40 3rd: 83 4th: 116 5th:156, 166, 167 6th: 15 3) We could combine our third round picks and have: 2nd: 53, 60 4th: 116 5th:156, 166, 167 6th: 15 4) Or we could combine our original 3rd (#83) with our 4th through 6th round picks to get us 330 = 57th pick 2nd: 53, 57 3rd: 93 No other picks 5) Or we could combine our NE 3rd rounder, the 93rd pick, with EVERY pick we have after that (4th, 3 5ths, and the 6th) to get us 283 = 62nd pick. 2nd: 53, 62 3rd: 83 Given the depth in the draft, after looking at this (Phew!), I'd have to say I like where we are at better than trading up, but I'd take scenario #3 if I had to trade up. Of course, this list doesn't account for using a fifth, for example, if we want to move up a few picks within a round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alleycat Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Agreed on Miller. My guy is Polk, but I think we're going to need to use our second. Be forewarned before clicking on the link below - you WILL WANT HIM. How could you not? They guy runs so hard and refuses to go down (legs keep churning), breaks tackles, stays on his feet, is an INSANE receiver out of the backfield, and has sub 4.5 speed (as he says, no one ever caught him from behind). Just sit back and watch the clip. You will have fun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o46hjBKtNw8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phatcat Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Just a general comment, perhaps stating the obvious, but I hope everyone realizes these youtube highlights are not at realtime speed. Watching some of these highlights these guys are running at sub 4.0 speed. But nonetheless Polk looked good, just wished people publishing these would keep them in realtime speed.

I would love Randle and Jeffrey, not interested in Sanu at all, James in the 3rd would be ok but he is really undersized and Pead seems to be moving up everyones board. Miller will be a great back in this league, ive had the pleasure of watching him play over the last 2 seasons and the kid can flat out run. Im just glad we didnt waste a 1st rounder on Martin. I couldnt believe that the Giants picked up David Wilson at 32. Makes me think the RB's will be flying off the board early in the 2nd round. I have a feeling the Bengals trade up.

BigDawgBengal Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Hopefully Jeffery will fall to the Bengals and then they are able to get James with their first pick in the 3rd and use the second 3rd round pick on BPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
