Possible Trade Senarios

[sml1950]

Chances are there will only be a couple of trades in round one none of which will involve the Panthers. However, there seems to be such a wide divergence of analysis on almost everyone past the top six, there could be some real surprises early on. Depending on who falls and a teams circumstances, the ninth pick could end up having good trade value. Below is a rough estimate of what we could expect to get based on the standard trade value chart (http://profootballhuddle.com/archives/category/draft-value-chart):

#9- 1350 points

1. At 13 we could get a 4th, which we could package with our 4th for a 3rd

2. At 18 we could get an extra 2nd

3. If Cleveland wanted to get a second top 10 pick, we could get the 22 and 36 (1320 points)

4. We could then package the 36 and our 40 (1040) and get back up to 15 (1050). So for the 9 and 40, we get the 15 and 22.

5. Our 9 for NE 27 and 31(1280).

Point value doesn't work anymore with the new rookie wage scale.

Hope we trade wont happen tho.

Trade value is always an approximation depending on each party desire. It worked basically the same last year as in other years. The rookie wage scale makes it easier to trade a top ten pick but the chart is still a rule of thumb that teams use.

NE's two firsts and seconds call it a deal. The Skins gave up 3 firsts and a second for the 2nd pick. No way you'd settle for just their two firsts.

I want Cincy's picks if we move down.

9 really isn't a bad spot. Don't desire to move down all that much unless it's super favorable.

I want to stay at nine. That wil be the perfect amount of time to sit at a bar and drink.
