I have the Pats trading #7 to the Falcons for the Falcons #34, #37 in round 2 and #103 in round 4.The rating numbers are almost a perfect match.
I'm sorry, but I have to say I find the idea of trading out of the first round altogether, well, meh.
How often does a team that makes the Super Bowl have a top-10 draft pick the next year? I'm not saying that the Pats should stick with the #7 pick; that said, though, even if they trade down, they should be able to get a top-16 talent signed for six years, and still get an extra second and/or third.
On top of this, your math doesn't work out. #7 = 1500. #34 + #37 + #103 = 560 + 530 + ~88 < 1200. So unless you have them throwing in at least their second in 2009, I don't see this happening.
