Draft value trade chart calculations

[Growl]

You may remember a poster (me) in January starting a thread saying to watch the boring AFC Divisional playoffs because there's a legitimate possibility we try to move into one of those spots.

That now seems possible. As it stands,

40+64=23

8+40+64=4

I'd say the chart is a tad dated with the implementation of the 5th year option, but its worth keeping in mind for a range.

Could see a move down in the first round along with a move up if we really like someone using our seconds. Will be an interesting draft to say the least.

I could get on board with this if you explained the equations a bit

There is chart for this out there for any and all possible draft pick trades, I know what he's talking about and it sounds right. But that chart is also very dated. It's from before the rookie salary cap, and  it doesn't take into account variables like the strength of a draft class.

What he's saying if with our first pick we get. 

Option A: Hope Fournette or Adams or preferred DE falls or pick BPA with our 1st pick. Package 2nd round picks to move up and get OJ/Ross in mid first. 

Option B: Utilize our additional picks 2nds to move up to 4 where we can get whoever we really want.

There's a league wide trading chart for draft picks. Each pick in the draft has a numerical value in descending order from the first to the last.

 

Teams use the chart to trade fairly with one another. The chart you'll find floating around the web is out of date but its still a good reference.

OJ Howard is probably a top 10 pick. We probably aren't moving back into the teens.

26 (or so)/seems like a possibility.

IF we had the 4th pick in this draft and someone offered the 8th and 40th and 64th I'd do it before they finished their sentence and then sell them a bridge in swamp  land that leads to no where.

 

And then watch my team commence with the first ever 3 peat in NFL history.

Hey let me have my pipe dream of combo of: 

Adams/Fournette and OJ 

Or 

OJ/Ross if you want to be more realistic

I don't either. This draft is too deep to trade up. 

I would be surprised if we move from #8, but I've been surprised all day. I think that the more likely scenario is bundling our two second round picks to move into the mid twenties if our guy is there

That one I can see much more easily. There is a bit more of a drop off from the 20s in the 1st to 40, but honestly there are always surprises, so I think 40 will have a lot of value. That said, with all the FA moves, we don't exactly have tons of roster spots, especially with the extra 3rd.

Another thought is that we can take the 3rd comp + 4th and move up to pick 83. Then you've got 8, 40, 64 and 83 and maybe four potential starters (2 immediate/2 future). Lots of potential and this year we definitely have some draft chips to play.

Funny that last year we had 30, 62 and 93 (should have been 31, 63 and 95) and this year we've got 8, 40, 64 and 98 (and 115). It is almost like last year's draft, but throw in Leonard Fournette or Solomon Thomas or Jamal Adams. Love that.

Fournette (or Howard if he's gone) bolles or ramcyzk (SP?) at 25. RB and DE at 98 and 115. I still we pick up another WR via fa.
