Is that worth passing up for a couple of day 3 picks? Trading down in 4 isn't a good play because we already have a ton of bubble type players and that's what you're adding. With most or all of OTA's wiped out, it's very likely that a lot of those 5-7 guys wind up outplayed by their vet counterparts and cut.
The way things are, you have to be skeptical of any player who is supposedly shooting up the draft boards. There's really no reason for them to rising because there's no new information available to cause. It's likely predraft smoke screens by teams and agents trying to get someone to bite.
In reality, we have zero idea who is shooting up the draft boards in the REAL war rooms. The media always has their hype and guys that are rising, but I would bet that NFL teams boards don't drastically change much. They base most of their grades on film, not on workouts.
You can't tell me that they didn't have a decent feel for Queen after watching all those LSU games with Fulton, Delpit and the other defensive prospects. He may have gotten a bump in attention because most didn't think he would enter the draft.
