Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
Assuming the old trade value chart is still fairly accurate, it looks like the value of trading down is as follows...
Trade down around 5 spots = gain a mid 3rd rounder Trade down around 10 spots = gain a late 2nd rounder Trade down around 15 spots = gain a mid 2nd rounder Trade down around 20 spots = gain an early 2nd rounder With all the talent in this draft, I think trading down about 10 spots looks really tempting. We'd probably be better off trading down only 5, because I still think you can get top 15 talent at pick 20. Thoughts? |
Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
Not sure the value holds up... 5 spots ought to be worth more than a mid-third rounder... I mean, just how much did we give up for Ingram? Methinks 5 spots deserves a number two at where we would be anyway.

Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
There are only about 8-9 defensive players that I like in this draft, we have a slim chance at getting one at 15, and no chance any lower than that. Given that, I believe we can get a similar talent to anyone outside those top 9 all the way into the second round, so I wouldn't mind dropping 15 spots and potentially grabbing 2 guys in that bracket, but dropping 5 or 10 spots would just eliminate our chances of getting a top tier talent without giving us the opportunity at 2 second tier guys. However, I could see a draft day trade down in that range if most of the defensive talent is pulled off the board early (likely) and we have no chance at any of them any way.

I'd be willing to trade down 10-15 spots depending on who we target. Picking up a second round pick would really be useful this year, even if it was to only pizz off Godhell. :razz:

Kinda depends on who's available at the 15 spot.

Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
I would probably be willing to drop the entire 20 spots. we would have just about the same value in players if we dropped 10 or 20. 2 early in the 2nd would give us alot more possibilities. I would hate to reach for someone at 15. This draft seems a little bit light on talent. 15 through 30.

Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
A part of me would like to see the Saints trade down. Our track record has not been great with first round picks. If we could trade down 5 to 10 slots, and pick up an extra third, I'd be okay with this. We don't seem to get good value for our first rounders, save for Bush or maybe Jordan. Loomis, Payton and the scouting department seem to get good value out of their picks later in the draft.
But we really could use an extra pick or two... and we really need to hit on the picks this draft. |

Now, using our history from the 2008 NFL draft, we moved from the 10th pick to the 7th pick in a consolation trade with New England after failing to get a fair deal from Kansas City when trying to select Glenn Dorsey with KC's No. 5 pick... In the trade exchanging our 1R (10, Jerod Mayo, TEN) and 3R (78, Shawn Crable) for the Patriots' 1R (7, Sed Ellis, USC) and 5R (164, Carl Nicks, Neb)... Ironically, or commonly when reflecting on the Saints recent draft history, the lowest pick was the best of the players involved... If we moved down those few spots, I'd expect the same kind of deal where we could give up our 6R and gain a 3R for moving five spots; that would be an equitable trade; or I'd be aggressive and give a 5R for another trading team's second round pick... |

Wow! Throw in Ivory for some multiple picks?
|
Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
I'd really like to see us keep Ivory. I love his punishing, physical style when running the ball...

But I would rather see the team keep the extra running backs on the roster. Depth will be more important there if we are going to run the ball more than we did a year ago. |
Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
I say to hell with trading down. Next year we wont be drafting anywhere near as high and punk ass Roger would love for us to end up with just average guys. Thats his plan all along. I hope we keep the pick and draft a defensive M.V.P and one of Rogers family members {maybe if he has sons or someone real close to him}plays against the saints and the guy we drafted gives Rogers family member a concus and he becomes a vegetable. Then we r even.

Trade down around 15 spots = gain a mid 2nd rounder
Trade down around 20 spots = gain an early 2nd rounder History has it you get more in value than these. It costs to get a team to give up a first rounder. The Patriots traded their 28th overall pick to the New Orleans Saints for a 2011 second rounder pick (56th overall) and a first round selection in 2012 I think we have a shot at trading with a team looking for OG this year. it is a weak year for interior line man in the mid rounds. opps back on topic i would not mind trading out of one all together bank roll a pick for next year. i am a fan of baby stepping down. i always like building depth in rounds 3 to 5. |

Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
I hate to be like that but the dude is hating on us. He knows what our running back is capable of and thats why he made the crown rule. I was wanting one of yall to get him during the superbowl. He is going to ruin the N.F.L.

Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
I would like us to trade down enough to see us pick 2 times in the 2nd round, there will be some real good players left in the 2nd and 3rd rounds, their there every year. That big, big DT out of Georgia in the 3rd.

Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
Not sure what to give up for it, but I agree with whoever said it, I definitely want to see Payton and Loomis have a pick in the 2nd round, just to p-zz off Goodell! It would be worth it just to have his stern punishment blow up in his face in public like that.
|
Re: Trade down value-how far are you willing to drop?
I've seen this posted a few times and I just don't get it.
If we trade down and pick up a 2nd rounder, or trade a player to get a 2nd, how does that piss off Roger Goodell? |

I wouldn't be shocked if there is a Multi team deal regarding the 1st round pick...
Trade player to Receive pick trade received pick Multi player/pick deal Not sure Loomis/Payton has pulled the last card from their sleeves Wouldn't suprise me if they just made the pick with no deals/trades/etc. |

I don't think RG should care at all. He's already taken the pick away and we aren't getting it back without giving something else up. Unless someone just gives us their 2nd rounder for free, Roger wins. |

I'd happily trade back into the 22-32 range for a second rounder.
Can't see it happening though,I think slot of teams would be happy to trade back. |
