Breer: Tradedowns for teams in the top 10 will be difficult this year

[Hawkeye0202]

After the top 4-5 elites, the cost to move up just isn't worth it ...

 

[Carson]

Hopefully somebody gets antsy and wants to move up for Sanders or Dart.

Otherwise, you’re stuck at 12

Rumor has 49ers looking to move into top 6. Their DLine is a mess. I am thinking they are looking at Graham.

 

[DoctorChicken]

Seems like it. IMO, there’s one QB this year worth the gamble (Ward). He will almost definitely go top 5.

Are other teams trying to trade up for Carter? Hunter? Graham? Teams probably aren’t willing to offer a first in exchange for a non-QB, which makes it much less worthwhile for those teams in the top 10 to trade down.

They can trade back if they want.

Their team is a mess.

You can. But you aren’t getting the picks everyone here is claiming.

You are taking less

You 4th round pick truethers can get your pick back with two spot move down probably in the second round.

They can get a 3rd rounder. At least a pick that is higher than the one that they traded.

That really doesn't matter.

Taking less value to move back still get you an extra pick and that is more valuable to the Cowboys.

Been saying this for weeks, might have to take less to move down as the value is very close after the top players

Ive been saying this. However keep in mind the same thing was true in 2013. So you never know draft day

One thing to remember though is we did lose a good amount of chart value in 2013. Same could be true this year

I think Hunter, Carter, Graham and Jeanty are the only players worth trading up for. I'd be tempted to trade up for Graham just because we haven't had a stud 3-tech in so long, but Hunter is probably the only one I'd actually trade up for simply because he can contribute at two positions.

Just give me that 4th

 

[gtb1943]

Just give me that 4th

BS; if we cannot get at least a third no deal

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

If this is the case do you guys wanna go get Mason graham ?

 

[Coogiguy03]

No that's not what I'm saying I'm sorry I had to explain this to someone else, we can get whatever we get it can be a two or a three, I just don't like the fact that we don't have that fourth round pick at our disposal. So if we can get one somehow that's fine, but if we get something better, then that's even better

My opinion - teams might be looking to trade up to 12 for the following players
1) Sanders
2) Warren
3) Tackles (Membou or Campbell)
4) Carter

As stated before, every draft year is different, but with the same coach and/or GM, you could expect similar drafting patterns/history. Based on Stephen's statement, it appears they have a short list of players for 12 if they drop. IF not, they will consider trading down, depending on to the package and/or team. For example, consensus mocks have Golden in the 19-21 range and if he's a top target, as many think, trade down can be good.

Sanders is the only player you listed that may have a shot at dropping to 12. But I highly doubt it.
