Trade Up, Stand Still or Trade Down?

What do we really want?

Should we trade up to 3 or maybe to 6 to get Mike Williams or Braylon Edwards, hopefully only giving up one of our first rounders?

Do we stand pat and take the best player to fit our team at 12, hopefully Merriman, Spears, Barron or Williamson. Then grabbing another contributer at 28, either Clayton, R. White, Shaun Cody, D. Ware, Barnes or J. Brown.

Or should we trade down from 12 and get another low first rounder, maybe a second or a few 3rds(we have none). This draft is so deep this could be a great option.

k here's what i think.... we should on trade up to 6 with tenn only and only if big mike is still there at 6..... cause odds r that he will be draft by the vikes at 7 if we dont trade up for him...... however, if mike is gone at 6 then we should just stay at 12 and take the best player on the board and then hopefully at 28 we can still get a shot at shaun cody...... or atleast some good.... cause i feel that its what we do at 28 that will make or break our entire draft.....

at 28 we should get a pass rushing olb like darryl blackstock, demarcus ware, or justin tuck. If we get shawn merriman at 12 then there will most likely not be and good 3-4 de's available at 28. It might not be flashy but i think we should just stay put and get marcus spears at 12 and darryl blackstock at 28.

OK, this is getting scary. Have I just been on this board too long, or are we all thinking the same thing now???

I want exactly the two scenarios above:

1) If Big Mike is available at #6, see if we can trade up, but don't give up both #1s to do it, then take Blackstock, or, even better, S. Cody at #28.

2) If we keep both picks, ideal would be Spears/Merrimen at #12 and Cody/Blackstock at #28.

I am not a Chargers fan, but personally I think Chargers should keep the Picks. They really dont have a big need anywhere in my mind. Keep the picks and improve. I think they should go with Spears at 12, and Barnes at 28 or Blackstock.
