I heard on local (Orlando) radio today that maybe the Jaguars are looking to trade down out of their #4 pick.
It would be neat to get that one, but then, the guy on the radio was also talking about them possibly trading it for Tony Romo, which is just about the dumbest thing I've ever heard... |

And for who? Myles Garrett is the prize of this class but he will be long gone by #4. If he is somehow not, then you absolutely trade away next year's #1 for him. Three of the next best defensive players are secondary; CB Marshon Lattimore S Jamal Adams and S Malik Hooker. Any would be fine additions to the Colts but do you really use two #1s for a secondary guy? The only folks that I think you do that for are pass rushers and/or incredible talents at ILB. DE Jonathan Adams? ILB Ruben Foster? DE Solomon Thomas? Do those guys rate the loss of next year's #1 to get them over the guys who are more likely to be available at #15 like CB Sidney Jones OLB Derek Barnett CB Tre'Davious White OLB Takkarist McKinley S Budda Baker OLB Taco Charleston They may be looking to trade back, but I would be shocked if Ballard pulls the trigger on a trade up unless it is packaged with a player like Allen, Dorsett or Mewhort. Cheers,

Jonathan Allen, I might very well consider paying a hefty price (though probably not 1st this year and next) to move up for. I do believe he's that good. I'm absolutely convinced he's going to be a phenomenal force. I think he'd be a good fit at 3-4 DE, but I'm also hopeful that this will be Pagano's last year and then next year we'll hopefully get a coaching staff that adjusts his scheme to his talent (particularly in the case of someone as talented as Allen).
That said, I'm not convinced that he will even be there at #4. Lots of Mocks have him going 2-3. With that risk, I'll pass. The price that it would take to move up even higher would be so prohibitive that it's not even worth mentioning. The only reason to reach that high is if you're so close, and one guy will really make a huge difference (certainly not us, we have far too many holes) or if you think you see your franchise QB in your sights (not us, either). If we can move up some spots, with trading Allen and/or Dorsett then fine, though I question how high their value is. As it stands, I'm not too keen on moving up too high, as we do have tons of holes and we need those filled and we can't afford to be giving up our best way of filling those holes. |

With a draft this deep, the Colts should be trading DOWN to get more picks instead of moving up and giving up any. We have far too many needs to be giving up picks. This is a great draft to build on. I hope we trade down.

^^^ exactly. if this draft is as loaded as they say, no trading up. We need to stock the shelves.

I would not blindly trade down early, but if there are no worthy pass rushers or ILBs then yeah, trade down and acquire picks if you can.

Does anyone have an idea (I know it's a year out) about NEXT year's class? Maybe Indy gives up a future 1 or 2 to grab a few more studs in this one?

I get that. My question is, do you think this year's class is good enough to trade away picks in next year's draft?
