Trade for Javon Walker - Page 2

ct · 09:59 AM

So I was thinking, if KC really wanted to try and get a playmaker WR, w/out sacrificing our chances at drafting multiple defensive prospects on Day1, what possibilities might exist?

KC has, allegedly, over $9M in cap room, plenty of room for our rookie contracts, and a couple big name signings, i.e. Walker and LJ. That does assume that Lamar/Carl are at all willing to open up the cash vault for the signing bonuses, which certainly isn't a sure thing. But anyway, the salary cap wiggle room is there.

So, referring to the Draft Value Chart:

KC 1st round pick (#20) = 850
GB 2nd round pick (#36) = 540

... for a difference of 310, equivalent to #59 overall in the 2nd, 5 picks after our 2nd round pick.

So in effect, if we were to trade out of 20, down to Green Bay's 2nd round position #36, we've given up just a bit under the equivalent of our 2nd round pick. And we've held onto 3 total picks in Day 1. With Javon coming off an ACL injury, it's possible we might get a later round pick back from the Pack, perhaps to make the trade equivalent to a 3rd round pick value, without actually giving up that pick.

Summarizing, KC gets a still young (albeit rehabbing) playmaker at WR, and maintains the following Day1 picks by Round.Overall_Pick (with my wish list selections):

2.36 - DE Tamba Hali, Penn State
2.54 - S Ko Simpson, South Carolina or S Pat Watkins, Florida State or CB (if somebody slides, such as Richard Marshall, Fresno State)
3.85 - DT Claude Wroten, LSU

You missed the thread header? Hmmm...

Ok, I can see that...

I posted this yesterday, and hardly anybody sniffed it. Now we over 100 replies in today's page, when it's actually reporting KC has spoken to them.

No. I saw it. I just thought I was in the Lounge one. There are some things I hate about the DraftPlanet forum, but some things I like about it as well. Dupes on both pages is not one of the things I like.

Let's just hope Denver doesn't land Javon Walker, unless it costs their 1st rounder. I don't want to see them land their WR and still get a quality player ahead of us.

I'd give our first-, third-, fifth-, and seventh-round picks for Walker, Green Bay's second-, third-, and seventh-round picks.

KC----acquires Walker, moves back 16 spots from round one to two, moves up 18 spots in round three, loses a fifth-rounder, moves up a few spots in round 7.

GB----moves up 16 spots from round two to #20 overall, loses Walker, moves down 18 spots in round three, acquires a fifth-rounder, moves down a few spots in round 7.
