With the third pick....

#3 overall is valued at 2,200 points according to most charts.

#5 overall (1,700) + 2nd round 5th pick, #37 overall (530) = 2,230 points. About an even trade with us perhaps having to throw in a 6th or 7th round pick to even it out.

To drop from #5 with same year compensation, you need to drop down to #11 overall to get another 2nd rounder:

#11 overall (1,250) + 2nd round 11th pick, #43 overall (470) = 1,720 points.

So, some of the options appear to be something like:

Option A = Pick #03 + #35.

Option B = Pick #05 + #35 + #37

Option C = Pick #11 + #35 + #37 + #43

Honestly, I choose option C above. 4 guys in the top 43 beats 2 guys in the top 35 when we have as many holes on our roster as we do.

Of course, you can slide down less from pick #5 if you want to just pick up 3rd or 4th round choices instead of 2nd round choices. I would rather get guys in the top 50 than guys in the 100s.
