Julio incoming?

[TomCollins]

Trade down is almost always smart early. People overpay so much for early picks.

[wiper]

Looks like it to me. 5 picks for 1. First round this year, first round next year, 2nd round this year, 4th this year, and one other next year. I don't care if Julio is GOAT, that is a great deal.

[wiper]

oh, okay...i mean, still kinda giving up an immediate impact player, but two 1sts, a 2nd and two 4ths for the #6 overall is good i guess.

that said, it isn't really fun.

I'd rather take the chance on a lot of guys. Teams undervalue 1-year-out picks so much. A #27 overall guy is not *that* much worse than a #6. Sometimes they turn out to even be better. And we get 2 of them. Plus 3 more guys. And they'll all be cheaper. I love it.

[wiper]

yeah, i know i know.

but when you're picturing all day getting a stud WR or at worst a stud pass rusher, it's kind of a let down even if it's right.

go Holmgren.

Definitely understand, the draft is designed to be super entertaining and all, but really if you want to "win" at it, you are going to be boring. Teams give up so much just to have an exciting draft day, and you have to take advantage. Holmgren is impressing me so far.

A+

[walkinbacktopenna]

d line. nice

I thought the Browns were going to a 4-3. Why draft a gap filler with a fused foot who provides no behind the los push? Strange, and I think quite a stretch.
