What if we trade out the 1st round completely?

If we are shrewd with our trade downs we might be lucky enough to draft Jason Williams and Robert Brewster in the third.

We'll have to be smooth though.

that went out with Jimmy

LOL, people thought we got hosed last year and your projected trade is for much less than we are getting back. You can't add and you don't know anything about trade value

I would only trade out of the first round if it was all but guaranteed that we snagged shazier or crichton with that additional pick in the early 2nd. Otherwise I would feel that we missed out on a real good player in the first.

all well to each his own - I was just trying something different

Nah...no problem with different ideas. However when you say we got two extra picks and it's clearly not the case, then keep arguing about it, it opens you up for ridicule.

BY most people's posts on the thread, they agree you aren't getting enough of a return for the trade down. Even though you potentially could end up with four decent picks, you are leaving a lot of value on the bargaining table. Your mock picks could end up better than what we get with three. Since it is a deep draft, maybe the smart thing IS to trade down and get more of that second and third round value.
