Quote:I wouldn't blame the Jaguars a bit if they asked for the moon to trade down as far as pick # 10.  That's what I would do in that position.

 

From a Lions perspective though,  I don't think what it would cost the Lions to trade up to pick # 3  would be in the best interest of the team.  If the Lions want Sammy Watkins badly enough,  I would wait to see if he lasts to a point of the draft that all it would take is trading a 3rd Round pick in order to switch places in the draft.   Otherwise,  either WR Mike Evans or CB Justin Gilbert would be viable alternatives with pick # 10.  
I do agree.  However, it wouldn't be surprising as they have a lot of pieces in place and Atlanta made an even larger move to grab Julio when they had Roddy.  I'd still only do it if we thought that whatever QB at 3 wasn't going to be franchise guy.
