Trading all our picks

[Bobblehead]

Brown and Richardson are two of the best players in the league at their respective positions. And we got them without sacrificing any of our first round picks. The draft is an inexact science based on potential; whereas, we acquired players who have already proven their greatness.

Brown will be here a long time, hopefully. We either get a 3rd round comp for Richardson or we re-sign or franchise him for another year. If we don't re-sign Richardson, it would be like we exchanged a 2nd rounder for a 3rd and a 7th, plus a year of Richardson. Or we could franchise Richardson to get another year out of him and then collect the 3rd round comp in 2020.

2018 Draft picks
1st Rounder (could trade down for more picks in rounds 2 and/or 3)
4th Rounder
5th Rounder
5th Rounder
5th Rounder
7th Rounder
7th Rounder
7th Rounder

2019 Draft picks
1st Rounder (could trade down for more picks in rounds 2 and/or 3)
3rd Rounder
3rd Rounder (comp pick in either 2019 or 2020 depending on whether Richardson re-signs)
4th Rounder
5th Rounder
6th Rounder
7th Rounder

You mean, do the same drafting strategy that has stuck so bad in the last several years?.. lets trade up.

I agree I want up for a change and I think we will somehow..
