But I stand by my statement that you'd be lucky to get much to move down from 1st to the 3rd. There isn't that big of a dropoff between Matthews and the 2 Finns. I would be surprised if whoever finished with the 3rd was willing to give up a top prospect or another first rounder. They would have to be absolutely desperate for a franchise center, otherwise it would make more sense to just keep the 3rd and your picks/prospects and pick BPA.
Now if you had the 4th or 5th pick and wanted to move up it would cost you more as there seems to be a ledge at 3.

It wouldn't be a no brainer, but they might do it. I'd just keep the pick and draft Matthews personally.
