IMO there really isn't much of a drop off in talent dropping down say 5 to 7 picks and that extra 2nd could be another bullet in the chamber for a draft that Treliving thinks will be deep into the 60th OA pick.
edit: This also assumes no one surprising falls to the Flames.

I am alright if we trade down a little. I feel the same way that there isn't necessarily a talent drop off between the 15-30 picks.
