I again think that if The Denver Broncos can trade down from the #2 pick in the draft that they will jump at the chance. I think Denver has a ton of needs and only 4 Good Draft Picks. Denver has a bunch of team needs DT , S , LB , QB , RB , TE , RT and will look to trade down if possible.
The question is will Arizona , Cincinatti , Tennessee , Washington , or The Vikings trade up.
I think Arizona is probably in the best shape to trade up and draft Blaine Gabbert.
Jump
Trade #1 - Denver trades it's 1st Round Pick to Arizona for their 1st , 2nd and 3rd Round Picks. This comes with in a few points on what the NFL Draft Value Chart says. Arizona drafts Blaine Gabbert.
Trade #2 - Denver trades it's 1st Round Pick #5 to Dallas for their 1st , 3rd and 2012 3rd Round Pick. Dallas drafts Patrick Peterson.
Trade #3 - Denver trades it's 1st Round Pick #9 to New England for their 1st(17th) , 2nd(60th) , 4th Round PIck.

Final thoughts - I truely believe that if Denver can trade down from the #2 spot it will do so. The team has sooo many needs and could pick up 6 Extra Picks by trading from #2 to #17.
Marvin Austin and Kendrick Ellis would give Denver 2 good DT's to build the Defense around.
Jabaal Sheard , Chris Culliver , Jalil Brown , DaNorris Searcy would also give Denver 4 more Talented Players on a Defense STARVING for Youth and Talent.
On Offense Denver would get Mikel Leshoure , James Brewster , Henry Hynoski , Julius Thomas , Lee Smith. This would fill in some major holes on offense at RB , RT and TE.
Denver would add 7 guys on Defense and 5 on Offense and start rebuilding what McDaniels destroyed.
