I don't care if we get 50 cents on the dollar...we can't pick anybody but Geno at 1 and improve the team...outside of Milliner and no way I take him that high...that's a bigger reach than Geno. If we take Joeckel, we are letting a top ten left tackle walk to do so...plus, an equivalent to him can be had 5-10 picks later.
Call up the Bills and tell em you'll swap picks, take their second rounder this year and next and move to 8. They only give up 2400 points for the pick worth 3000. That's like paying to move up to 3 instead of 1....but then you get your choice of quarterback.
I doubt they would turn that down.
Shit, I'd move down again, if I could.

Move down again to the middle of the round and take Eifert.

If these guys are all in on Alex Smith, we are in for trouble in KC over the next few years.

I know. I was grasping at straws.
The last really successful trade for a team's backup was probably Favre, though an argument could be made for Brunell and Hasselbeck.
