Possible acquisition of extra 1st in 2021?

[BProland85]

I wonder if a team came calling offering their 2021 1st for the 34th overall pick this year if Ballard would do it. If a poor or mediocre team called, I'd be all for getting a potentially very high 1st round pick in 2021. 

 

I don't think it happens too often, but it would be nice.

  If there was consensus that the liklihood of a pick that would land in the Blue Chip (top 15) area it would have to be tempting. If that went off he could then try to trade next years one which i hope and expect to be in the mid 20's for more picks.  
Miami has so many high picks that they will want to move some into the next draft.

I would do that almost every time such trade is available(it doesn't even need to be by a team that's expected to be bad). In the long run you will profit by trading second round picks for future firsts.

 

The few exceptions are if a player who you value extremely high(let's say top 10) player is still available or if there is a QB you like and need a QB.

Does this even happen. Why would a team give up a future first to only get a current second.

The 34th overall pick is basically already like a late 1st. The benefit in getting the 34th overall pick is you get that player a year early into your system. And it depends on the player that is available at 34 as well.  Just justifying a team's reasoning behind a trade like this.

I don’t think it will happen.... 

 

but

 

If the Redskins, Jets, Bengals, Panthers, offered next years first, for our 34th , I would ABSOLUTELY trade ALL DAY , EVERY DAY

 

You could parlay a 2nd to a top 5 pick next year..... you do it

 

dumber things have happened......

Me neither......

 

 

but..... if a team that almost always drafts in top 10 approaches the Colts for the 34th pick...... you take the deal

Polian did this back in 2017...when he traded a future 1st for Tony Ugoh.

If this were in fact offered, I could not say yes fast enough.

You mean 2008.

I meant 2007.

[richard pallo]

I wouldn't.  How meaningful of a college football season will we have?  How much will we know about nexts years class?  Will they play? Will it be shortened or delayed?  Spring and Summer practices already cancelled or delayed.  I would go the other way.  Trade a pick or two from next year to get talent this year.

Don't forget that Trevor Lawrence will most likely be available next year ...
