Trade down possibility


Warhorse

Recommended Posts

I don’t think that can work. 
Teams possibly looking at QB, pending free agency. 

Houston #2

Colts #4 

Vegas #7 

Carolina #9 

If we tempt fate by trading down we open the door for other teams to trade ahead of us to get the QB they want. I could also see Tennessee at 11 and Washington at 16 possibly trading up.

of course figuring out where Rodgers, Carr and Garoppolo land helps narrow the needy teams down a little (ie removing Jets, Vegas and maybe Washington)

I would love for that to be a realistic scenario but I just don’t expect it to be feasible

The odds of Indi not trading up with the Bears in order to get Stroud are approaching zero.  Failure to do so signals that they won't take a QB in Round #1.

If they sit it will be to take an Edger:  Tyree Wilson or Myles Murphy.

Trading down would involve taking a top WR.  FWIW, Tankathon thinks the first of those will go at #12.

In a trade down scenario I could see the Colts trading #4 and #169 (Value 1826.4) to Pitsburgh for #17, 32 and 234(Value 1541) With Carolina trading with Chicago for #1, that pretty much guarantees that a QB will be taking #1 and #2.  And with Pittsburgh top needs seem to be Edge, Oline (specifically OT) or CB, that would give them their pick of several players that would not be a reach at that pick.

Then the Colts could draft Hooker at #17 (a bit too early or if they think he will drop because of his knee) they could take an edge guy like Van Ness at 17 then Hooker at 32.
