Of course it's impossible to predict, but there is a decent chance the VAN 3rd will be in the 70s, while a 2nd from a stronger team could be in the 50s. It could even be high 60s vs low 60s (or 90s vs mid 30s, but that's much less likely)

At that point in the draft dropping 20 slots means you might move down your own list by like 5-8 guys.
