So I was talking to my Dolphins buddy about trading down from 3 and he is adamant that we stay in the top 10. BUT, what if we got a huge ransom for something lower, would people be for it? So I came up with these 3 scenarios using the trade value chart.

I understand the argument with staying in the top 10, but in this scenario of 2 additional 1st and 2nds on top of this years 1st, I think I would take that. I also am of the belief that more of our success is based on Tua and this being a deep WR draft.

Pick #3 = 2200 pts

1. Carolina - #8 , #39 , # 2022 2nd round pick , 2022 3rd round pick

2. SF - #12, #43, 2022 1st round pick, 2022 3rd round pick

3. CHI - #20, #52, 2022 1st and 2nd round pick, 2023 1st round pick

Also, I like polls, so I am doing this for some personal enjoyment. That's still allowed here right? :pbj:

Carolina is the smarter trade, but I do think SF would have to give up more than that to move to 3.

The bears one is interesting because there is a real possibilty that they're back to picking in the top 10 next year and the year after. I mean, Andy Dalton.
 
It's going to be hard for some DolFans but your priorities change once you have the franchise quarterback. We are more obligated to get him some playmakers. It makes little sense to get a speedy Heisman receiver if you have a Chad Pennington that can't throw it that far anyway. Your mindset would be take the picks, maybe we can leverage it or whatever to get the QB we need. I think we have enough picks. Let's get Tua some weapons. Get him a top three guy and a guy at 18 too.

Carolina has pick 8, not pick 9

Miami would be trading down from 3, not from 4
 
Not all the time Jimmy j's draft metric is the rule, I think, in this case like some drafts predict, it is more acurate Carolina's 1st, 2nd and 2022 1st.
This is my choice by far given that Carolina's next year draft is going to be a top 10 may be top 5, I believe.
 
If Miami trades with San Francisco, the 49ers have to include Brandon Ayuk. Maybe #12, Ayuk and a 2022 2nd rounder. Something along those lines.

Chicago, at #20, is too far down. Of course, if the Bears are willing to talk players in addition to picks maybe it could be advantageous for the Dolphins.

I do not think that’s likely.
 
I am only talking to Atlanta to move up one spot. They aren’t going to do it for Kyle Pitts, it means they don’t want Denver, Carolina or San Fran jumping in front of them and stealing their guy, period. Take them to the cleaners for the guarantee they get Fields or Zach, take the guy you were going to take anyway a pick later and enjoy the riches you dealt for. Safe, sure, value and no risk of losing our guy, whoever that is (I hope it’s Pitts). He won’t be there two picks later.
