If someone is going to trade up I think it will only be for a QB or Clowney. In to the top three I mean. There will probably be other trades in round one too.

Ya never know, Al.

The Dolphins traded up to #3 for Dion Jordan this year. And Barr is better than him.

It only takes one team, as the saying goes.

Last 5 year trades involving top 6 picks:

2009: ^#5: Cleveland → New York Jets (D). Cleveland traded its first-round selection (5th overall, used to select Mark Sanchez) to the Jets for the Jets' first- and second-round selections (17th overall, traded to Tampa Bay, who selected Josh Freeman; and 52nd overall, used to select David Veikune), Kenyon Coleman, Brett Ratliff, and Abram Elam.[source 1]

2010: None

2011: #6: Cleveland → Atlanta. (D) Cleveland traded this pick to Atlanta for Atlanta's first (27th overall, which later became #26), second (59th) and fourth-rounder (124th) and also Atlanta's first- and fourth-round selections in 2012.[source 1]

2012: The big one

^No. 3: Minnesota → Cleveland (PD). Minnesota traded this selection to Cleveland for their first (4th), fourth (118th), fifth (139th), and seventh round (211th) selections this year.[source 2]

^No. 5: Tampa Bay → Jacksonville (D). Tampa Bay traded this selection to Jacksonville for their first (7th) and fourth round (101st) selections this year.[source 3]

No. 6: St. Louis → Dallas (D). St. Louis traded this selection to Dallas for their first (14th) and second round (45th) selections this year.[source 4]

2013: ^No. 3: Oakland → Miami (D). Oakland traded this selection to Miami in exchange for Miami's 2013 first-round selection (12th) and second-round selection (42nd).[source 1]

A few of those look quite enticing.

Would love to trade back but stay in the top 10 and pick up someone like Watkins or Evans. We could get atleast a 2nd and a 3rd. Which would be great in this draft since the talent will be deep through the early rounds

Whatever Fisher and Snead decide will be the right decision. They are building this team to be a lasting force.
