Trade down draft thoughts?

Traditionally what I said stands to be true. Yes first round picks are a crap shoot. No. Reek wasn't taken #1 overall. Your examples are anomalies. We got lucky with Tyreek falling for off field conduct. First round picks (or closer to the first round) are generally more talented players. As someone else said this draft might have several solid players from the middle rounds. That still doesn't refute the fact that the talent level is higher to those that are typically drafted at or near the first round.

Careful, you're showing your age with the Madden reference (which made no sense btw).

Now say something more intelligent please. Regarding the actual topic.
