I think any trade needs to net us more players on rookie deals, not fewer.
Trading Tee + our first round pick to move up just means we now have a glaring hole at WR in addition to our glaring holes at RT and DT. If we use that pick on Nabers, now we can't improve either line in the first round.
No, we need more picks without expending any of our picks.
For that reason, I chose the 2nd and 4th round picks, with one caveat.
I want that trade done before free agency, if possible, or at least early on in free agency.
I would not be interested in that trade on draft night.
Because, if we go through the entire free agency period with this 21M dollar franchise tag on the books, then we trade him in May, that means we will be going into the summer off season with 21M dollars ins cap space and all the top free agents very likely already signed. We could use it for extensions or whatever, but if we are trading Tee, I would really want to use that money productively to push us over the edge to winning a Super Bowl.
