McCloughan Claims Seven Top-Ten Teams Want To Trade Down

Posted by Mike Florio on April 22, 2009, 5:23 p.m. EDT

It has been rumored for weeks that several teams drafting in the top ten want to trade back.

On Wednesday, 49ers G.M. Scout McCloughan confirmed it.

McCloughan said during a media briefing that seven teams in the top ten want to trade down. He knows this because seven of the nine teams have advised McCloughan that they’d be willing to trade down.

He thinks that two players could help such deals happen — USC quarterback Mark Sanchez and Alabama tackle Andre Smith.

The fact that so many teams want to move down underscores the out-of-whack nature of the rookie wage system at the top of the draft, especially in a year with a relatively flat talent pool that doesn’t feature a presumed can’t-miss prospect.
