Here's a Thought - McCarron

[Whatever]

I would put their chances of sliding at 50%.  

They have never traded out of the top 10 in the MB era.  When they do trade down, it's when they're in the 20's and the top prospects are long gone.

Logically, they have 11 picks, and will probably get more from dealing McCarron.  Marvin needs a bounce back year to cool his seat down, and I doubt he will be keen on passing up an immediate impact player to stockpile picks for a future he may not be a part of if he can't right the ship.
