I think if there are several players we like still on the board at 9, and we think we can land them a few picks later, then sure, we should trade down. Like if I was the GM and by some chance Brown and Kinlaw are still on the board, and the Jets told me they weren't taking either one of those, then sure, I would not mind trading down.

That's the other part of the equation. Not only why would some teams trade up, and what we would get in return, but also, why would we trade down, other than just accumulating draft picks. 9 is a premium draft pick. I wouldn't want to give it up unless I thought I could still get my guy.
