Trading up is a completely logical and I would say even likely scenario considering the way Pace has drafted in the past. There is a reason Pace has conscientiously acquired players in the offseason that did not go against comp picks (Jimmy Graham, Artie Burns, Ifedi, Mingo). Pace is trying to build some draft equity in the case he wants to move around, which we all know is a given.
If there is a 1st round talent available at the beginning of the 2nd I see no reason why Pace wouldn't and shouldn't try and trade up, even if for only a few picks A player like Josh Jones, Jonathan Taylor, Antoine Winfield, JK Dobins, Cesar Ruiz all would be great additions and would be like getting a 1st round talent. Why not try and see what we can package up? With the two extra projected 6th round comp picks I'm willing to package up at least one of them and a 2021 3rd/4th pick to move up and get the right player.
Also, I wouldn't completley rule out trading into the 1st round and eye Jacksonville, Miami, and New England as partners.
Jacksonville - Has two 1st rounders and plenty of picks sprinkled throughout the draft. I'm sure they wouldn't mind working out a deal where they can turn some of their draft capital into picks for 2021
Miami - The Dolphins have so many picks, I'm not sure they know what to do with them all. They should look to accumulating some picks for 2021. Both #26 and #39 will probably be candidates for them to trade out of.
New England - they have a 1st and plenty of draft picks after the mid 3rd round, but nothing between. They would probably be open to trading for both our 2nds if we want their 1st and one of their late 3rd round picks.
