    Yeah but we would have 2 other 4th rounders to work with which would be GREAT!

    Yeah I'm not suggesting we trade the comp pick, but we might consider packaging the other 2 (assuming we get the Pacman one). Do we really need/want 3 picks in the 4th round?

    I have no problem with us sitting on 3 4th rd picks because we have several needs.

    More than likely in that situation we trade one or two to move up in the 2nd rd to get a player like cason or porter.

    I hate 4th round picks. With rounds 1-3, you expect to get a player who can contribute. With rounds 5-7, you don't expect to get much at all and anything you do get is a bonus. Round 4 players seem like they are drafted early enough that they should be decent, but often they aren't. They fall somewhere in between and it can be frustrating as a fan.

    I support trading up in almost every scenario imaginable.

    I wouldn't mind seeing us trade up into the 3rd and trade down in the first to get another 2nd and 3rd rounder.

    That would give us 3 3rd rounders and 2 2nd rounder.

    Another pick is another pick. Getting the rights to another player may be a grab bag, but it's a good thing.

    i'd rather hang on to the 4ths than trade them to get into the 3rd
    there's rumored/mocked to be some decent talent still available

    It'll be at the end of the round so it's basically a fifth-round pick.
