Trade the First Round Pick Twice!

Okay, so it's old news that we're going to trade with Tampa Bay. We give them Calvin Johnson at #2, and we get their #4 pick. Reportedly, we will then pick DE Gaines Adams. I think we should trade the pick and we still might get Gaines.
#3 - Cleveland is likely to pick Quinn.
We now have the choice of RB Peterson, OT Thomas, S Landry, or DE Gaines. Several teams are salivating over Thomas. If the Cardinals think we're going to trade away the rights to Thomas at #4, and they plan on picking him at #5, I bet we could extort a pick out of them. It may only be a third rounder, but WTF, let's get greedy. And we would still end up with Adams at #5 for sure.
