NE has the highest cap room.....

Buffalo, KC, Detroit, Washington, Philly and GB have late second round picks.  

Titans, Panthers, CHI, ATL, AZ and NE have early second and early third rounders.

If this goes through, I would package a pick to get into early second round, where we could still address D-Line. The talent falls off drastically after top-50.

NE has 9 picks in this draft and plenty of money to work with. Their top picks are #4, 38, 69 and 77. It's been said that the Bengals are looking to get a late 2nd to early 3rd round pick in exchange for Hendrickson. The Bengals could ask for pick #38, to which NE might suggest #77, and they could settle at pick #69. NE has enough mid and late round picks to where they could easily trade back up into that range if they see someone they want. The Bengals, on the other hand only have 6 picks total. If they can get anything close to a top 50 pick, it would be a minor victory.

Still would rather have a quality player, one with a few good years left in him, in exchange for Trey.
