I don't see how the Giants don't take their QB of choice in that scenario (Eli is 37 and on the decline, any feigned interest in another player/position is a smokescreen to not be blatantly obvious), so that would leave the Colts at 3 with Chubb and the top 3 QBs on the board, which means you call each of the Browns, Broncos, and Jets and inform them that now is their chance to get their choice QB of the ones left. I think one of them bites and the Colts still get Chubb.

Add the bills in there

Unless I'm missing a trade somewhere the Bills don't have the picks to move up.

They can throw in future year's picks can't they?

By the draft value chart, Bills could move their two firsts, a second, and a third to get roughly equal value to #3.

Nope. 21 and 22 are too far back for my liking.

Agreed, the talent likely available all the way in the 20s isn't good enough to justify trading back that far. We will rarely be able to draft players in the top 5. Let's not waste that just to acquire more picks that will not be difference-makers.

Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie being released by the Giants. Dunno how good he still is but any new name on the CB market only helps us.

Unless you can then trade back up some, but you have to be sure, otherwise that is too far to move back.

But you could combine the 21 and 22 which equal 1580 points and move back up to 7th and keep the 2nd and 3rd from Bills this yr and their 1st next yr and take Nelson

The Bucs aren't trading back that far if the Colts do, they'll be smart, stay put, and get Chubb. That's why the Colts can't trade back past 7.
