I don't mind trading up even if it never seems to work out for us when we do, I do think doing so for Tycen was unnecessary, given we had already double dipped with the "versatile" safety talking point, and a 4th receiver prospect, with Tee coming off surgery, was a need. I was ok passing on TE if we had to pass on something since the Offense doesn't utilize one that much. I would have went with Isaiah Likely or Khalil Shakir. We didn't position ourselves well to cut or trade Boyd after the season. If that was ever a thought.

Plus you need good depth at such an important position. If one of the big 3 go down the drop off is huge. Guys like Thomas or Taylor could fill in for a game or two, but if there’s a major injury and one of them is your WR3 for any significant amount of time that’s pretty scary.
