Wild don't have room to add cap and would more likely want to be moving up, not down, in the draft.

Dont see the point in moving up a few spots at that range from 26-19, honestly. They should be able to grab the player they want at 19 as he will be available at 26

These draft moves will probably be in the vicinity of what actually happens just like 2020 where only draft picks were moved on draft day. Teams are capped out and waiting on other moves like free agency and rfa qualifying offers.
