You can't just generalize and say the pick isn't worth much.  Depends on who, what, and how much the other team is interested and what they see as a 'risk'.

Then let me re-phrase it.  If the BEST offer I got for the #1 pick was #2 and #66, I would take that.  

Whether we get an offer much better than that is doubtful.

I really believe the Lions would part with pick 32 or 34. It might seem like too much since many believe Hutchinson is no better than Thibodeaux or Walker. PFF is doing a podcast on Hutchinson to air in early April which should only increase the hype. Austin Gayle, who interviewed several coaches and players who faced Hutchinson was on 1010 yesterday. He made it sound like Hutchinson will be a combination of Deacon Jones, J.J. Watt and Lawrence Taylor as a pass rusher with the leadership and character of Tim Tebow. While his talent/skill-set is likely to be extremely embellished in this piece, it should give the Lions enough of a nudge to offer either pick 32 or 34. 

I would not personally take the deal for picks 2 and 66. I'd just go with Hutchinson and Allen as my pass rushers which would make this team immediately much better.
