Trade down to get our DT?

I was just looking at this list of the draft order with a note of which teams play a 3/4 vs 4/3. Interesting thing is that it looks like the Bears could trade down pretty far in the first and still grab one of the top DT they would have on their board. Only 6 teams picking below them play a 4/3, and I don't think those teams would be going DT in the 1st round??

I think we can but not to far. I think the furthest we can go is the Cleveland pick if we want to draft a legit starting DT. Some trade partners I can see us dealing with are Jets, Dolphins, and Browns.
