For grins and giggles, I broke down the teams using the number of multiple picks they have (or may have using AdamJT13's comp forecast). I've classified them by Day 1 or Day 2 trading partners figuring multiples in rds 2-4 can move around on Day 1, and multiples in rds 4-6 can move around on Day 2, rd seven multiples were not factored in given their limited trade values.
Teams likely to be interested in moving up into round one where the Pats are the only club holding multiples are rebuilding clubs holding Day 1 trading tools. With the exception of the Colts and Saints, these are rebuilding clubs. Both the Colts and Saints are looking to remain competitive, but may not feel the same pressures to move for a player they like.
Day 1
49ers 2 3rds, 3 4ths
BILLS 2 3rds
BUCCANEERS 2 2nds
COLTS 2 3rds
DOLPHINS 2 2nds
FALCONS 2 2nds, 3 4ths
RAIDERS 2 4ths
SAINTS 3 3rds
STEELERS 2 4ths, 2 5ths
TITANS 2 4ths
Day 2 clubs aren't so much about rebuilding as they are targeting players they want. The extra day 2 picks just help grease the wheels.
Day 2
49ers 3 4ths
BENGALS 2 6ths
COLTS 2 5ths
COWBOYS 2 6ths
FALCONS 3 4ths
LIONS 4 5ths
RAIDERS 2 4ths, 2 5ths
RAVENS 2 5ths, 3 6ths
SEAHAWKS 2 6ths
STEELERS 2 4ths, 2 5ths
TITANS 2 4ths, 3 6ths
For those wondering, I realize any team can trade on any day and I consider the teams sitting at the top of round two to be good prospects to try a short move up to 24 or 28 for a dropping player they like. But after the Houston/Atlanta trade today I wanted to look at this "on paper" to better visualize who might have enough picks to feel comfortable dealing with the Pats if they wanted to move. The flip side of that is teams with fewer picks may be who the Pats target if they wanted to bundle picks and take fewer draft prospects this year.
