Nice Post.  I like the analysis.   One thing I do want to point out is the fact that our 6th rounds picks that we traded off were #1 and #9 (early picks in those rounds).  I still like the deal but our 4th round pick from the Bucs will likely be a very late 4th rounder since TB will make the playoffs given their weak division.

Thanks.  I'm not saying we made some kind of great deal; I'm just saying Baalke appears to be capable of making deals and operating under pressure.  He appears to be somewhat competent, in contrast to the way we have painted him for several months.  

People act like it has to be all one way or all the other way, which is typical for a message board.  People stake out an extreme position and campaign for it like their life depended on it.   Baalke is not as evil and incompetent and hated around the league as his detractors (including me) have painted him.
