    here is what our three picks will cost:

    13)$1,149,500
    18)$889,500
    23)$721,500
    =$2,760,500 total

    if we trade up to #4...

    4) $2,232,000

    we save $528,500

    $528,500 will not be the deciding factor in getting webber. we only address one need, if we trade up, when we can address at least two if we keep all three picks.

    I think we need the athletes. Keep at least two of the Round One picks. Don't we only have like 7 guys under contract now-- and a couple of them we don't even want supposedly.

    If we move to 6-9, we could save over a mil. That will be worth it. Or if we just get rid of pick, then we save at least 700k.

    There are too many reason not to keep all three picks, salary, too many rookies, future picks, etc.
