What if we traded our 1st for....

[DaveThePanther2008]

2nd in 2013 and 1st and 3rd in 2014.

There are a number of teams are ahead of us that need that 1st round talent and then want G. Smith and don't feel comfortable with waiting to see if he is in round 2.

Would you be comfortable with 2 second round picks.

And next year you'll ask "what if we trade the pick we got from last year for next year's..." Some people don't have the balls to handle having a first round pick without wanting to trade out of it, and I'm glad our GM isn't one of them.

I'd be okay with it and if Gettleman meant what he said about having addressed our needs via free agency, then he should too. Rivera on the other hand.

Every one is cool with trading down and getting a lower first round and a third. Take their second and third this year if you want an additional pick along with 2014 #1 pick.

I am not normally for trading our 1st away but this draft IMO is weak.

I don't think we will because we have so few picks this year anyhow. That said, I wouldn't be pissed if we did.

Since i'm still not allowed to post and this is something that needs posting, the Vikings are looking to trade up for Tavon. They have a #23 and #25. I want this to happen more than anything. We could take Xavier Rhodes and not reach for a safety. Grab BPA DT/WR in 2nd. i hope to god this happens.

Not an option I'd consider unless we are getting a better deal than that. The least I'd want is a 2nd and a 3rd in 2013, and perhaps a mid round pick in 2014. But I'd rather us either draft a guy with our first this year, or trade down and have a late first round pick. I agree with Rodeo, you've got to have the balls to make a pick in the first, and trading out shouldn't be under consideration unless we're landing a proven pro bowl type player in exchange (though our cap would probably prevent us trading it for a player).

You wouldn't want the #23 and #25 pick? I say if they throw in their third this year then yeah def.

Based on that value chart, the Vikings picks are worth more than ours, San Fran's 2 picks would be very close.

This would be a dream scenario if this actually happened.

What if we pick another 1st rnd immediate impact player to continue to build our team???

We do, that's why i'm hoping this happens. We could really help shore up our secondary or just holes on defense if this happens.

I think we'd be better served by taking the BPA with our 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so forth. I fail to see the benefit of trading away the 14th pick for an additional 2nd.
