The draft is much more of a crap shoot than anyone wants to admit. Even the best teams have first round picks that flop. The best way to increase your chances of getting a good player is to have the most picks. It is so hard to really tell which players are better than others it does not make sense to trade away picks.
Exactly. Look at the absolute bounties the Rams and Eagles have given up to acquire the top 2 picks. History has consistently shown this stuff doesn't really work. Heck look at the one time we've done it recently... don't see many people all that high on Bodine.
We've drafted fantastically for 6 or so years now. Give the team as many picks as possible, not fewer.
