If Atlanta is picking 10th, it would be dropping back 9 spots....(7 if you are talking about picking Williams at 3).

Is there something I am missing in your analysis?

I'm just saying that if I would be perfectly happy taking the person at 3 then trading to 10 wouldn't be any different as long as he is still there.

Gotcha.

That makes sense.

I know the Panthers owner is pretty impatient so maybe he wants a new QB. Just need a disgruntled WR (although DJ doesn’t strike me as a guy wanting a trade)

Although Moore would upgrade our WR corps, I have never been a huge fan of his.

I'm also not too crazy about trading with Carolina just on general principle.  But if they are 14th, that would be even riskier.  Williams would likely be off the board by then.

That said, they may well be willing to pay to move up to get their QB, assuming they didn't go after one of the vets.

Edit:  using the same mock draft simulator, Carolina is actually picking 6th, which obviously would be much better than 14th.  However, they have no 2nd, 3rd or 4th round picks thanks to the Sam Darnold and CJ Henderson trades.  They'd have far less to offer in trade this year than a team like Atlanta.
