Estro Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 I think trading high picks (which I consider 1st and 2nd rounders) for vets looking for huge $$$ is bad practice in the NFL. Draft picks are gold because the rookie contracts are so low. Just think of the value of contracts like Matt Milano, Dion Dawkins......you're literally paying .10-.20 on the dollar for what that player would be worth on the open market. You are forgoing the opportunity to get a player at a great price only to hand over an astronomical money to a player on his second contract. It's sexy and exciting when it happens, but in the long run it's bad business. 3

I’m pretty sure every non QB in the league is “available” A first can get you almost anything. It’s sickening how much NFL teams overvalue draft picks.

No one knows if anyone will truly be any good once they transition to the nfl. Using a pick here on there on a proven commodity, even if you have to pay more for the player, is not bad practice imo. 1
Lurker Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Well, if Clowney came here he wouldn't have to face Nsekhe any more: 1 1

To follow up on this, with all of the additions we have made so far and with our pretty stout defense, we really don't need ten picks. I think now would be a great time to package some picks and players for better players like Clowney. I don't think 10 rookies make the 53. 1

It’s sickening how much NFL teams overvalue draft picks. They have Watt and Mercilus. They are going to need to sign Watson in a couple of years and they might want to get something for him now. It is likely bull#### though so I don't think we have to worry about it.

All of these moves means nothing if Allen doesn't continue to grow. Adding an elite pass catching, hard blocking TE is a need on this team and will be big for Allen. A great TE can be the focus of a successful offense in today's NFL. Drafting Hoskenson would address a true position of need and wouldn't be a reach at #9. Edited March 13, 2019 by Inigo Montoya 1

BuffaloRebound Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Is Clowney really that good or still living off his reputation like Sammy Watkins?

rayray808 Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Clowney for 9 is way too much... throw in Keke and it's a deal
