Jerry Jones: Possible trade for '08 #1 Pick

Originally posted by Wade from a sports forum:

I caught about 10 minutes of Jerry Jones on the ticket addressing the media in a draft press conference. Someone else can probably do a recap, but one of the scenarios he said they were entertaining was trading their #1 this year in exchange for another team's #1 in '08.

He said a lot would depend on what kind of swapping happens with the #2's for this year's draft. He also talked quite a bit about trading up because of the drop off after about 9 or 10. Of course, JJ likes to blow a lot of smoke this time of year, but hey, anything's possible.

He also discussed how he thinks about what would've happened if he had traded up in other drafts instead of trading down for more picks.

Like I said earlier, someone else can probably do a full recap, but I found the idea of maybe completely trading this year's #1 for an '08 pick interesting. That better be an extremely nice package.
