Patriots coach Bill Belichick says that the team has been getting a lot of calls about their second-round picks.

New England has three second-round selections (Nos. 44, 47, 53).

"That isn't surprising to me," Belichick said of the inquiries.

"I'm not saying that anything will or won't happen. I think that's pretty common at this point in the process, a week or so before the draft, where you start to talk to teams and try to get a feel for whether they would or wouldn't be interested in moving a particular pick. It expedites the process a little bit when you get to draft day.

So how many trades will be made before the draft?
