Obviously, though, I'd prefer players be used in lieu of draft capital, especially because Chicago is the most ideally set up team to take players from the Colts given their HC's familiarity with Colts players and their GM's familiarity with the Colts front office.
I agree about Carter. But IND is still taking a QB at #4 even if they don't work out a trade, don't you think? Which opens up SEA as another possibility for CHI to trade with and still get Carter/Anderson.

And ultimately all I'm saying with all of that is... An expensive trade up looks like it could get even more expensive when you consider those downstream factors.
