There usually is a major drop in talent at about 8 -12. The first dozen gives us our projected blue-chippers and almost blue chippers.
The second drop is very variable. Sometimes we call thes playes the red chippers. If there is such a drop, the likelihood of getting a red chipper diminishes greatly after a certain point. Obviously, after this we find players that need work, players who have had "issues", and diamonds in the ruff.
For me, this matters a lot. If the drop is say at 65 (the beginning of the 3rd round, then I would likely want to trade up from 74 (perhaps using the 92 and moving up to about 55). Alternatively if the drop isn't until the 80's, then I would use to 92 if needed to move up, otherwise trade it into 2012. If the driop is project to be around 40, then I would want to trade up from 60.
Where do you all feel the second drop is this year?
