Is it the player or the trading up that bothers you guys ?

Both. That's a lot of pressure to attach to one player. Then, by trading up, you've not allowed to go back into a fertile, talented draft because you've limited your choices...

Now you have a talented player, but you're weak somewhere else, opponents will just attack the weaker position...

And even worse, what if the player heavily invested doesn't pan out, now you've only addressed one position and even it's not having an impact...

Not having talent spread across the field has cost us; having plenty of choices is what has sprung us forward - see recent history of 2017 draft where we had more choices...

Watching some LB’s and man... this Jamin Davis kid looks so good. He’s the quintessential weak side LB.

Not bad, but Jabril Cox has same versatility as DeMario Davis...

Free agency comp pick update for the 2022 draft... we’re currently slated to get a 4th for Trey Hendrickson and a 7th for Justin Hardee. That’s in addition to getting a 3 next year for Fontenot.

Seems a bit light recompense but anything helps theoretically.

The word on the street is we get a fifth for Rankins too.
