    ya...i guess...i mean if you can't think abstractly them sure.

    think about it man...we don't take warmack in the first we obviously draft another guard later, whos probably just as good...etc..
    so yall wouldn't trade the next three firsts for a division title this year, assuming we get three guys with equal skill to lewan Wright and warmack..yall trippin.

    Agree, but I would have traded 3 of those first rounders if it meant a sure shot of winning a division title the next season. It's hypothetical as heck but I would trade Britt Morgan and Locker

    Richardson was a basic back that ran through 5ft wide holes. He did nothing special which was why he was such an easy bust call.

    Remember that thread I made after the Colts gave up a 1st for him? You all thought I was hating. Dumbest move ever. Even worse than the draft pick.

    Hindsight is 20/20, yea Im sure most would trade those guys away for a division title, 2 of them are gone. But it doesn't work that way.

    But the Redskins didn't trade 3 players, they traded draft picks, which could be anybody.

    I guess that's where the disconnect here is: those of us saying no are saying so with the consideration that we're trading three 1st round draft picks, while those saying yes are saying so with the consideration that we're trading three of our actual first round draft picks.

    exactly...anyone thinking we take three guys we already have and trade them for a title is crazy..its draft picks ...not players who already have a spot on the team. Obviously taking our last three firsts.off the team would leave a gaping holes. Giving away the next three wont immediately, and possibly wont ever. I see what you are saying as you'd trade the next three because almost no combo of three consecutive firsts.in the pasts really helped us win anything.

    Explain how his first round picks were any good. Wright has not been anything special and Warmack has underachieved. Lewan has been good but he still can only do so much as an offensive tackle. I don't think Ruston has done well at all I think he's done a pretty poor job of his first rounders since 2012.
