There's no motivation for teams in those spots to move out now. How does someone say something like this when that has happened a few times... not that long ago.

Because that’s how it usually goes. You want to know your guy is there before you pull the trigger. The selling team wants to know they don’t get a MUCH higher offer. Neither side has incentive in MOST cases. But sure, it CAN happen. Just now, Putin said: Good question > when did the Eagles move up to get Wentz ? ( not 100%) I'm pretty sure it was before the draft day , ( ? ) I think it’s safer in say, the top 2-3 picks, where only a couple things could possibly have happened. The deals are not made at the last minute. They’ve been all worked out and set on the shelf to see how things go.

If you make a move to three too early wouldn't that open up a wide door for someone to deal with the Giants and even the Browns, for that matter ?

If we make a deal at 3 I think it forces browns to take qb. Giants stay and take Barkley.

Rico Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 I think if you want to move to the top, it’s best to do it early before someone else beats you to it. Maybe you throw in an extra pick or so to sweeten the move... then so be it. If you’d like to move up lower than that depending on how the draft is going, then you can wait.

Worst case scenario: - Bills trade for number 3 pre draft day. -NYG o. 2 becomes much more valuable for the Jets, Broncos, Browns, Cardinals. - Browns get worried select a QB at 1 rather than Barkley. - Giants pick becomes even more valuable. - Jets, Broncos, Browns, or Cardinals jump to number 2. - 2 QB's off the board before the Bills pick at 3. I have a feeling the Bills really like/love 2 Qb's this year, but nor three. If this happens, all is for nothing. The leak is even bad enough for the Buffalo Draft.

That’s why you have to go to at least #2.

Beane has made a move (the 1st one in the draft). NYG and IND both now know that Beane is serious about QBs. They are not going to make a trade without getting with him (he already is probably talking to both). He jumped AZ and now the Jets and Broncos got to know what's going on. Might make DEN or NYJ to make a bigger move in FA. Usually the big "move up to 1-4" doesn't happen until 2 weeks or so before the draft. FA has to flesh out first. FWIW
