Around SBN: Jeff Sullivan's MLB Trade Deadline Primer

Trading Down?

Okay so I know the idea of trading out of the #1 pick has been beaten to death.  No one wants the pick badly enough and there's no way the Lions will get full value for it.  But I wanted to get thoughts on trading out of the #20 pick.  There is typically a lot more movement in the middle to end of the first round than there is at the top.  I wouldn't mind seeing the Lions trade down from #20 and draft a guy like Peria Jerry and maybe pick up an extra late 3rd round pick.  Hell if they package it with the Dallas 3rd rounder they might even be able to pick up an extra 2nd rounder.

Generally speaking......

Usually a team at #20 can trade down to the middle of the 2nd round and gain a 1st round pick the next year.
