Hit me up with offers. I'm looking to pick up additional 2nd or 3rd round picks, depending on how far I drop down. Could be useful to get the player you want, especially if you are currently at the back end of round 1.

A second or a third rounder to trade up in the 1st to spot #12?

They're asking for a back end first round pick with a sweetener of a 2nd/3rd.

Personally I don't think being such a high first round pick is as bad now with the current Salaries assigned already to players by the platform.

Right, I understood... I just think it's a pretty unrealistic proposition. This is a 53 round draft... who's going to skip their entire 3rd or 2nd round to move up to the middle of the first?

Well, depends on which player is there. If you want to move up to get that key piece of your franchise that you know isn't going to be there when you draft late in the round, then you gotta pay a price to get him.

If nobody wants to trade, thats fine. I don't want to hear anybody whining either that they couldn't get the player they wanted to build their team, when there were chances for teams to move up.

I would do it, but I can't sacrifice my team by giving up a second round pick. Since I have the the 20th pick in the draft...that would be brutal since I would have the 4th round pick in the second.
