Again according to the NFL Draft Value chart, the #21 is worth 945, your second rounder pick is worth 380, the first 7th rounder is only worth 6.2. The last 7th round pick is #35 in the 7th is has zero value. Besides it is a comp pick and teams cannot trade those. So total value of the 3 eligible picks is 1331.2. To get into the top 5 you would need at LEAST 1,675.

So the highest you could go to trade up in the first with the picks you mentioned is around the #11 spot.

Well, the draft trade value chart is horribly outdated, and any team that had a top 5 selection and turned down an offer for the 21st pick, a 2nd rounder, and a 7th probably needs to fire everyone involved. Especially since the chances of landing a stud at 21 are close to what they are at 5, and you wont be paying as much. Plus you get two extra picks.
