Why does anyone trade up? Because their guy will be gone correct?
I see a scenerio where the QB's are the only top studs left when we pick at #5. Everyone in the NFL assumes we are not taking a QB so why trade up to get the QB if he's not going off the board?

I'm with you.
Here's a post of mine from the Draft forum re: trading down:
There it is. The answer for everything.
Nevermind that only ONCE in the last 7 years has someone traded out of a Top 5 pick, and it happened to be the #1 overall.
People say "trade down" like it's easy.
Most teams aren't willing to give up a R2 pick to move up 2 spots, or even more to move up further. Plus the right combinations of teams/available players has to be there.
Also, let's face it. This isn't the year a Joe Thomas, Orlando Pace, Carson Palmer or Peyton Manning is going to be there with someone drooling all over them.
