    I'm high as f**k on my meds right now (opium, morphine, heroin), from the V.A. But at least my pain is somewhat under control.

    The falcons a few years back traded up for the 6th pick of the 2011 draft. They gave up their 1st and second that year and a 1st and 4th the following year.

    My question is why would we (if we do trade our 1st rd pick "5th" overall) recive a second and swap 1st only?
    Wouldn't we be able to recive a second or first next year from the team wanting the 5th pick this year.

    If we traded with a team picking at 20-32, all that would be expected. But, most teams don't move up as far as the Falcons dod that year. Most trade scenarios we're hearing about only have us dropping 5-10 spots, not 21 like the julio trade.

    I don't really think we will get the opportunity. If we do, it will be because the QB situation breaks our way.

    This year, I do not think it will look good. If there are QBs that good they are worth trading up for then there is a good chance one of the three QB needy teams ahead of us will take them. Then there are the jags who could also trade down.

    Lol, that would be a terrible deal for us. Moving down 9 spots from 5 to 14 and only getting a 2nd rounder and swapping our 5 to 4. Cleveland got more last year in a weaker draft and weren't even working with a top 5 pick. Moving down that low also doesn't even guarantee us Davis or Howard, and I'd probably say they'd be gone by then anyways.

    Because we want to trade down. Do you not even play Madden?

    I don't think anyone will honestly.

    But we are the unusual top five pick in that we already have QB and OT settled. Someone that picks below us (cle, buf, hou, half a dozen others) that needs those things may make us an offer.

    True, but because we won't be picking those may force us to draft at 5. Also, throw in the fact that qbs and ots are weak in this draft. Looks like pass rushers are our only hope for a trade.
