Quote:I don't get the logic of "If there's no one worth the 5th overall pick, Trade Back!"

 

Umm.. if there's no one worth the pick... no one is going to trade UP for it.

 

You shop the pick, if no one bites, you simply take the top player on your board.

If there's nobody worth the 5th overall pick for your team....

 

Different teams have different needs and value different types of players at different positions.

 

For instance, the Jaguars have zero need at QB at this point.  It's not worth the Jaguars' while to take a QB at 5.

 

However, there are teams BELOW the Jaguars that need a QB, who, under the right circumstances, might be willing to trade up for a player, even though the players the Jaguars want are either already off the board or not worth the 5th overall pick to the Jaguars.

 

Get it?
