Would be an incredible haul. That's how I started out thinking in the one I ran with Toney, Myers etc is that I'd trade down once every time it was offered in a round but after a couple rounds and the way the board was falling I'm like holy damn hell hahaha. [Reply]

I really didn't address LB but the offense gets instantly better with Jordan and Wallace and a developmental prospect in Johnson. I also managed to address OT and IOL depth with potential future starters (Jordan could be one as well I guess) and possibly a starting center.
On defense, I got enough edge help to have a healthy competition, have tons of depth, AND replace Frank Clark after 2021 if I want to get that money back.
It wouldn't ever happen but yeah, it turned out nicely. [Reply]

In general, IMO, it only makes sense for one of the truly elite positions:
QB
WR
DE
OT
CB
There's not much they could do that would make me question their decision, but moving up to take Parsons would.
The thing is, I traded up to 16 and none of the elite prospects at OT or WR were available. I could have taken someone like Patrick Surtain but other than that, there wasn't much there other than Parsons.
One more reason why I think they're much better off staying put at 31 or even trading down, not up. [Reply]
