Why would we not trade a second and third on completely unproven players for a proven player? Especially since we are on the cusp?
Teams overvalue draft picks especially when it comes to trading them. The Rams are starting to figure this out. It's only a matter of time before other teams follow suit.
As far as mortgaging the future? We have the future already on the roster. What we need right now is proven guys to supplement our young roster. You can't rely on the draft for that if you're trying to win now.
There are 3 other teams in the same position as the Rams and they did so without trading away their future.
