"Unless I have a top 5 pick, if I have a choice to either trade for a player at a certain position or take a chance on there being a decent one available when my draft pick comes up, I'll trade everytime."

Are you sure ? Would you trade a pitcher for a decent 3B right now if the teams most likely to be contracted in your league each had a 3B as good as the one you're trading for ? Even if you figure to have a middle of the round pick, you'll most likely get one of the four 3B's. Then you'd have your 3B and get to keep the pitcher from the possible trade.

Would you really pull the trigger now? I don't think most GM's would.
