Lombardi on his top 15 D players
_____
re NE (mirrors my view
):
> can see them moving up from 23 (not necessarily for QB but to get above demarcation line of top prospects - around #18 in his view)
> definitely sees them moving down from #31
My 2-cents: Moving down from #31 does take away one 5yr contract - but if its for a player that NE probably have only grade 2 (potential starter) its not such a big deal and instead you're getting another prospect or draft capital to play with.
Maybe BB prefers to trade up with #31 (keeps both 2nds) for just a swap of picks depending on how high he goes.
