The back end of the NFL Draft is always a crapshoot as far as what will be available. One train of thought for those selecting in the back end of the first round is to trade up multiple spots to secure a player that the team has a first-round grade on. The Buffalo Bills took this strategy last year to move up and select cornerback Kaiir Elam. General manager Brandon Beane went on record at the time to say that Elam was the last first round grade on the Bills’ draft board.
Another way of thinking is to let the chips fall as they may, and find a dance partner to trade back with if the value isn’t quite there.
