Hypothetical trade with the Raiders
Would you switch 1s with the Raiders this year in exchange for a switch of 1s next year?

Not sure if serious? Worst trade in the history of the NFL.

If they would be dumb enough to do that trade, I'd do it.
The Raiders are gonna be garbage next year...possibly the worst team in football...we will be picking in the low teens to early 20s. Who wouldn't want to trade 1:1 and 1:18 for 1:3 and 1:2? |

I agree with Boss here.

I don't think that's entirely relevant here, though...as both of our picks would be devalued for the same reason.
If all we are talking about is swapping picks, this would be a clear "you guys are gonna be garbage next year and I'd love to have your first rounder" type of slap in the face trade. From a "value to KC" perspective, I'd make that trade. Id be shocked if Oakland is drafting outside of the top five next year. Look at their roster....on the flip side of the coin, it's gonna take a catastrophe for us to be drafting in the top ten. I'd make the trade. |

In Madden, yes. In real life, nope. What if we ended up the worst team next year too for whatever reason? They'd get the top pick in 2 consecutive drafts. Just not worth it. What would we get out of that trade? A SHOT at a better pick than our own record gives us next year? **** that.

That team isn't drafting outside the top 5 next year. |

I don't think people really understand just how bad the Raiders will be this year. The Chiefs have targeted four players this year; they are still guaranteed to get one of them with this trade. I'm willing to bet that they would have a 50/50 chance to land Clowney next year with that trade. |
