Only if they're both available when Edmonton picks, which isn't likely.
As mentioned, it depends on what happens with #1. Looks like most of the trading partners are going after a centre and likely Buffalo as well, so if that's the case yes either could drop, but either could be taken above us, and one of them will be by Edmonton. And if either one is gone before 3, we won't get either of them. And with no consensus at all, both could go 1-2.
So, if they're really interested in those guys in particular, it makes sense to try and get to #2.
What would be really great is getting to #2 without giving up #4, but that's unlikely.
