Would be fine either way, because if they do trade back then believe their targeted player is thought to still be available later and an extra pick is always sweet. 

Agreed, would be fine with staying at 9 but i don't want us to reach either if our guy is not there for say like Taco.

I would much rather us trade down if this is the case and get either Ross or one of the RB's than go DE in the 2nd.

Key takeaway, after pick 2 values drop significantly (makes sense as that is franchise QB territory).

Considering everyone wants to trade down (most reports), it's conceivable that jags would take a 3rd to move down to 9. I would rather stay pat, but just some food for thought if we loved Fournette for example.
