Do we talk to the Cards to head this off? Are we so desperate to grab Maye we blow up our own draft?
I actually doubt, barring a stupid offer, either the Bears or Cards trade. Even if they were to trade back with the Pats, there's no guarantee who they want is there as we could then take Harrison. So most likely everyone in the top 3 holds onto their positions and its Williams, Harrison and Maye. Then the Pats reach for Daniels and they're back to square one at QB.
I can live with Maye @ #3, but trading up even if an option, would be folly given the talent that would be available regardless of the top 2 picks, and our needs.

It normally ends up that one or even two teams will offer stupid amounts in trade to get the QBs, no matter how much the top two like MHJ or Fashanu they will not be able to say no. We may even get some offers at #3 for Daniels and if MHJ is still there. I wouldn't mind if we took Maye, but I would rather not trade up, and only trade down 2 to 3 spots if at all to ensure we get a desperately needed blue chip player.
