    It starts on who is available, teams in line, who has the capital to pull it off and finding the trade partner to do it. Not even knowing where we will be planted, and while we have a boatload of capital...it is not necessarily move to the top of the draft capitol. Like any year it's wait and see, but to put any speculation at this point is silly.

    A couple of times I was amazed at how little it cost to move up in certain places, in others i could not believe a team would give up that much. The numbers they use for value are nice to look at, but in reality it comes down to how much you are willing to pay and what the other team will accept, for the most part I cant believe a GM is looking out for a 'good deal for both teams', he wants whats best for him...screw the other guy, lol.

    Any GM that’s not trying to get the best deal possible for his team would be a former GM with a quickness.

    I never said a straight up deal, one for one. I am talking about a package deal with Thompson included, that is if he continues to play decent in the preseason. He is auditioning now to increase his trade value. I do not know what Khan has in the pipeline but a serviceable QB like Thompson can sweeten the pot and make a trade more possible

    Anythings possible, injuries and such, the depth at QB is very sparce. That said, the cuts coming will give any team options to fill a position for depth, maybe Skylar lights it up and there is a grab fest for him, but the talk on some podcasts that he is in line for the number 2 spot, threatens Howards roster spot, etc...just bunk at this point.

    Because there will likely be anywhere from 5-7 QBs go in the first round next year, I'm sure they will find one they like :shrug:.

    Unless Rodgers has an unbelievable year and ends up coming back or something they will 100% be drafting a QB in Pittsburgh next year. Like you said there are enough good ones coming out we will trade up with our plethora of draft picks and take one.
