 Possible Trade Down Partners
I know a lot of us here would like to see the phins trade down and pick-up a 2nd round pick in the draft. In order to do that they have to find a team that is willing to trade up to the #15 spot and also give up their 2nd round pick as well. These are the teams that might be willing to do just that:
Indy - If they feel that a certain OT can come in and start for them at LT as a rookie, and they are unsure he will last until pick 22, then they may be willing to trade up for him. Must protect Peyton Manning at all costs!
Atlanta - definitely needs a pass-rushing DE, and at #27 they may have slim pickings. Not sure if they'd look to move all the way up to #15 as it would probably cost them more than their 1st and 2nd round picks? But they could also be a trade partner.
Tampa - may be willing to move up to get a good pass-rushing DE, if the guy they want is still on the board at #15 and they doubt he'll still be there at #20. Of course they would not surrender their 1st and 2nd without getting more compensation from the phins than just the #15 pick. But another viable partner depending on how the draft shakes out.
What other teams are out there that could end up being trade partners for the Fins?

 Re: Possible Trade Down Partners
If JJ Watt is on the board at 15, SD will be calling the Dolphins. They want to move up in-front of the Pats to take him. That is a guarantee.
Atlanta is too conservative to trade up. I do think they'll push though because NO at 24 will want to jump ahead of their other division rival Tampa for a pass rusher. All 3 teams need a pass rusher, so, they'll all be looking to get ahead of each other.
Indy doesn't trade up...ever. They'll stay put and grab whichever lineman is on the board (probably Sherrod).
