there was a thesis done on the nfl draft. outcome was scary. the chance that #1 rated cb was better than #2 cb 5 years later on in nfl was 50%. hence NE trading down getting more picks gets more chance to get success. however gms overate high 1/2 picks and overpay vs performance. getting a 1st and 2nd was shown to be less successful than trading those down for multiple 3/4/5 picks

i sort out defence first usually lbs/dbs. then a qb/wr/te. a good fb and hb. at least then you have weapons.
