Just read an article from BUF that laid out scenarios to trade up for their desired QB (whomever he is).

Their trade scenario to get the #3 overall pick was to trade for it in exchange for:

#21 overall
#22 overall
#53 overall
#56 overall

That would give the Colts in 2018:

#21 overall (1st round)
#22 overall (1st round)
#35 overall (2nd round)
#53 overall (2nd round)
#56 overall (2nd round)
#67 overall (3rd round)

to fix holes on the team.

Yes, you lose out on "sure" top ten studs but end up picking up a lot of picks of guys who can go onto having long, productive and impactful careers in the NFL. 1st and 2nd round guys should be the foundation of any team's excellence.

OT, OG, DE, ILB, CB and RB in the first 67 picks of the draft at the expense of picking one top five stud and instead picking a guy like Ryan Kelly? YES, please!

Would you make that trade?
