Report: Five teams in top 12 want to move down

[BAMAPHIN 22]

Draft boards are set by this point.
That means all that’s left is the jockeying for position.
Adam Schefter of ESPN points out what seems obvious in a draft with no sure things, that about half the top 12 want to move down.
Schefter specifically mentioned the Eagles (fourth), Lions (fifth), Browns (sixth), Bills (eighth) and Dolphins (12th) as having made calls trying to trade down.
If that’s the case, the law of supply and demand is about to kick in, making it harder for any of them to get the kind of return they’d normally want, if anyone’s even willing to move up to the spots they occupy.

At least we're trying. The fact is that it doesn't seem like there's going to be a great fit at 12

This is very easy to see happening, especially if Ireland is using a 2nd rounder for Albert. You can literally hear Parcells screaming inside of Ireland's head, "You better get that pick back little Jeffy or it's out behind the shed with you!"

Getting Albert essentially for free draft-pick-wise would probably justify the whole Long/Albert fiasco in Ireland's mind.

I think Ireland will just have to make due at #12.....and take Tyler Eifert. If someone moves up to grab him, then I have no idea who we will pick?

I'm sure the Pats would be all over that and we would have to go the next 3-4 years seeing him catch 100 balls a year and whining why did we trade him.
