All rounds I think three.

As examples:
Number 1 overall in the 1992 draft Steve Emtman.
Number 2 overall 1998 draft Ryan Leaf
Number 1 overall 2007 draft JaMarcus Russell
Number 4 overall 2009 draft Aaron Curry
Number 6 overall 2008 draft Vernon Gholston
So let's trade back enough to land at 8 or so picks and get it done. I assume 3 trade backs is what it will take.

No pick is guaranteed. Just because a guy is a high pick does not make him a guy that opposing teams need to game plan for. The more picks you have the greater your chances of getting difference makers.
