Akili Smith trade redo
#32
(10-06-2019, 10:01 PM)THE PISTONS Wrote: So the Falcons offered the Bengals a trade for the pick that turned into AJ Green. They offered the same trade to the Browns.

Essentially the Browns traded Julio Jones for a bunch of draft picks that turned into sucky players.

They could have also turned Julio Jones into... Andy Dalton (9 picks after Atlanta's 2011 1st), Randall Cobb (5 picks after Atlanta's 2011 2nd), Julius Thomas (5 picks after Atlanta's 2011 4th), David DeCastro (2 picks after Atlanta's 2012 1st), and Mike Daniels (more of a stretch at 14 picks after Atlanta's 2012 4th).

If you're a bad drafter, it doesn't matter how many picks you get. If you're a good drafter, those picks could really change your franchise. 

Julio Jones is probably going to the HoF, but the Falcons had an awful lot of talent surrounding him when he entered the league. Who knows how he would have responded to going to a bad team instead of an offense that already had Matt Ryan, Roddy White, Tony Gonzalez, and Michael Turner. That's an MVP, 1st Team All-Pro, GOAT Hall of Famer, and 1st Team All-Pro, respectively, that he got to join.
