I'd have no problem trading our 1st round pick for a proven, definite upgrade player. Our recent history of production from 1st round picks is simply atrocious. Isn't Dennard a free agent again after this season? They may look to draft a CB round 1 next year anyway.
I'm not saying it has to be for Ramsey or that he is what we need at the moment, but a player that comes in and produces Day 1 from our 1st round pick would be so much better than what has happened the last several seasons.
If we continue our normal protocol of only signing cheap free agents who won't cost us a compensatory pick, our draft picks are all we're going to be able to use to bring in talent. That includes through trades.
