Considering what you are essentially looking and the whole point of the draft... this is it. It's already pretty much been handed to you. You don't give it away. It's the equivalent of giving up a winning lottery ticket worth millions in hopes of getting multiple other lottery tickets that could each worth millions if you are the luckiest person on earth. Your odds are so against you it's stupid.
I feel like it's a lot easier taking #1 and missing than swapping for 2,3,4,5 etc and watching what you gave away hitting big time. Imagine watching weekly highlights for years rubbing in what you should have done. It's easier to see a later pick blow up and wish you would have in hindsight (Mahomes) than it would be to look back and regret something you know you should have done but you rolled the dice anyway.
As someone else already said, you do this and miss (most likely miss) you risk losing the fans for a long time if not forever. They trade for picks I'd probably be done unless it was literally entire draft multiple drafts. Even then if it didn't pan out or he becomes the next NFL great you are forever ridiculed about the decision. If you take him and it doesn't pan out, no harm no foul. Sucks but you did the right thing and we continue the search.
