[CBFF] Draft Math

[Phil DeNomme]

I wouldn't mind him trading down a bit and getting a couple more 1st day
picks.

That is, if someone will take those two picks, or if the Bears are willing
to offer them.

Angelo's past history indicates that he will stand pat with the 31st and
37th OR trade down but NOT up.  He seems skittish with high 1st round picks
because the bust potential outweighs the $$$ you have to spend to sign them.
When's the last time the Bears traded UP in the 1st round?  I have no memory
whatsoever of them ever doing so.

Frankly, I think Angelo will stick with his two picks.  They look like very
good value picks for an impact skill player on offense + an OL.  Otherwise,
I could see him pulling last year's stunt and dropping down--perhaps out of
round 1--to get two second rounders + another 3rd.  Me likey both scenarios!
