It's easy, and only takes a few moments.The fact they want to trade down for the right offer tells me they are not convinced about all of the top 4 qbs otherwise they would invest the third overall pick imoSources: Patriots haven’t received 'serious' trade offers for No. 3
Other teams want the Patriots No. 3 pick, but as of Tuesday, the team hasn't received a 'serious' offer, according to sourceswww.masslive.com
Minnesota: "Fine, fine, we'll send you all four firsts AND Darrisaw!!!"In this hypothetical, if all those teams are so desperately trying to get Maye... I'd feel even more inclined to just draft the guy.
the other explanation is that this is all Draft Week hypeThe fact they want to trade down for the right offer tells me they are not convinced about all of the top 4 qbs otherwise they would invest the third overall pick imo
Or the other explanation could be that they feel sure that mccarthy for example is still there at 8-11
Somehow; I don’t think it works that way.the real trade offers wont happen until thursday.
right now, its strategerey - teams calling around to see what is in play.
Or Minnesota GM has an agreement in place with AZ or Chargers which only costs both 1s.Minnesota GM is likely waiting as long as possible to see if asking price comes down.
First you have to find out who is a serious trade partner. That's what the calls are about right now.Somehow; I don’t think it works that way.
Any offer they get after Wed 18:00 is as unserious as the „laughable „ offers received so far. Just ones seeking a desperate partner.
IIRC, in the few videos of BB trading down; it was always the same:
(1). BB asks the other team: „is the player you want still there?“
(2). Ok, yes; then the deal as we discussed?
Anyone serious is going to plan this out.
You can’t realistically think a corporation can make a multimillion $ decision with multiple moves & implications, analyzing from scratch with a 15 minute chess clock running down.
That is laughable in my mind.
IMO, any serious trade is well coordinated (at least the pick # framework) more than 24-hrs out.
Don’t disagree w what you say here.First you have to find out who is a serious trade partner. That's what the calls are about right now.
Once the team that trades up gets an idea of who is willing to work with them, then it's on them to prep their trade packages and begin the convo in earnest. Too many moving parts right now, too many looking to trade up jockeying for position...
And for the sellers, it benefits them to wait, maximizing their return... You sell early, you are invariably selling short
Least that's how I see it... Ymmv
Saw this as well. Likely a negotiation tactic by the team to get more teams involved.Sources: Patriots haven’t received 'serious' trade offers for No. 3

Yep, and who is in play. Wolf is putting together a list of who to check with during our 15 minutes.
How much do the Pats really like Maye or Daniels if they are open to trading back?
They must not be too enthralled if they are considering it.
ok being the key word. I'm going to be excited to draft a QB I'll be ok if we trade so long as the return 3+.3 firsts and i am ok to trade our 3rd
We would still need to draft a QB. But it’d be a less exciting one.ok being the key word. I'm going to be excited to draft a QB I'll be ok if we trade so long as the return 3+.
Still not sure why they keep twerking to the entire NFL about trading that pick. If the QB prospects in this class isn't worth a top 3 pick, who would be? It's one thing to pick up the phone when someone calls, quite another to be on camera and talk about how they welcome offers any chance they get
I think Wolf and Co. are eventually going to take Maye.We would still need to draft a QB. But it’d be a less exciting one.

Kraft wants Daniels, Wolf and Mayo wants JJ, AVP and Mcadoo wants Maye but we could be willing to trade down.
