Whats the over/under for trades in round one.

wgenesis123 : 4/16/2014 3:44 pm
I see many posters on BBI assume its zero because you must have a partner to trade down and in such a deep draft no one wants to give up picks. I hear this every year on BBI so who wants to say its zero? I say itss 9.
I think the odds

are greater than 50% the Patriots trade at least once in round 1.

After that, I'd be just guessing.
9?

have there ever been 9 trades in the 1st round?
There was 11 trades

in 2010 in the first round.

7 in 2011
16 in 2012
11 in 2013

there were 11 picks that were traded, but only 7 actual trades - and one of those was the pre-draft trade of Revis.
Sorry

those numbers are wrong they include both picks traded, if team a traded pick 4 for pick 12, both pick 4 and 12 are being included.

So halve those numbers, and the odd #'s are for a pick traded multiple times.
well some of those were from prior year draft trades  
YAJ2112 : 4/16/2014 3:57 pm : link
others were teams trading out of the first so those probably cancel out.

I guess you'd have to define what constitutes a round one trade. Is it only a deal that involves a 1st round pick where the trade occurs during the 1st round?
Yeah  
pjcas18 : 4/16/2014 3:58 pm : link
that post was all wrong.

my apologies.

Youre likely to get what you want in this draft so status quo should prove successful.
However, there are ALWAYS the crazies, and a few common sense ones.
How many trades among the first 5 picks?

Show of hands !!!
I have a theory...  
Torrag : 4/16/2014 4:14 pm : link
the more bona fide 1st Round QB's that are available the more movement of draft picks occurs...IMO there are 4 in this class which is a high number....so expect a frenzy of trades as teams maneuver to get their guy in a value position.
It looks like there were

5 trades involving first rd picks last year, 8 the year before and just 4 the year before that. I'd put the over/under this year at 5.5.
I think there are about 16 teams that will be looking to enhance their

position in the draft with trades, once the first domino falls it could get very wild as someone said on another thread.
Not sure how many but

Think Cleveland will trade both their #1's to either Texas or St Louis to move up for a QB.
