just curious. Plus, I don't really remember, so I'm asking, How often do teams trade the #1 pick?

I only know of two 2001, and 2004. Both by the San Diego Chargers.

Tuna traded down in 97


Consider this: Parcells has controlled the top pick in the draft once twice before. In 1997, he took over the Jets, and that year, he traded down with the Rams, who gave up four picks to take Orlando Pace (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 10 or greater.

That trade (a trade Parcells almost certainly wouldn't have made if Tennessee quarterback Peyton Manning (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 10 or greater.
