Possible trades for Day 2

[Zoltan]

I have 2 I can see happening:

 

1st: Colts trade number 37 to the Broncos for pick 40 and pick 99. At 37 Broncos Select Guice

 

2nd: Colts trade number 49 to the Buccaneers for pick 53 and a 4/5 round pick and they select Guice (this is going off Zierlein's mock day 2 Bucs want to jump in front of the Lions to select there future RB in Guice)

3rd rounder to move up 3 spots in the 2nd is pretty unprecented (even though it's comp pick). Teams paid relatively less to move up in the 1st round just yesterday.

I don't think we should do anything. Picking 36 and 37 is wonderful. Only 3 teams pick before us. I love our position.

Yes.  The first rounders were for sale due to the lack of normal 1st round talented players in this draft, supposedly.  We'll see if the player value tightens up as we get into the better-valued part of the draft.

It's very rare that a team takes back to back picks anywhere in the draft...much less this early. Typically they have one target...and then a small list of guys that they like at that pick. Once they get their target then you feel good and then trading back and still getting one of the other multiple guys makes sense. Not saying we couldn't take both picks...but I think we move back between 37-49 with that 37th pick because someone will want to move up and we will already have our guy and will then be able to fall back on a list of other guys. Splitting the difference between all 3 picks make a lot of sense and could land us say a late 4th rd pick possibly where I think we will be targeting some WR depth. Nobody truly knows but I bet Ballard has been getting lots of calls all morning for 37. 35 with Cleveland and 37 with us I think will be prime targets for other teams to move up. Can't wait. I feel really good that with 36 a starter will be there for us.

I think we should keep our picks based on how the board has fallen. Not to mention I think there will be a noticeable dropoff in talent around after our third 2nd rounder or our 3rd rounder.

i actually hope we keep both back to back picks cause we need all the high talent we can get ASAP

Agreed...nobody would say we don't need the highest quality talent...but the question becomes with the second pick is will there still be very high quality talent back to the mid 40 range and we get an additional pick tomorrow that we can develop. I think there will be some nice running backs in the 4th round and maybe having an extra 4th would be nice to nab one.

If the Colts can move down not too far, and manage to get an additional 3rd round pick, I'm all for moving one of these top 2nd rounders. We have SO many needs still. OL may be good, but we have huge needs at LB, DL, CB, RB, and WR.
