Quote:The only thing trading down gives you is multiple less talented players.

When your record proves you have a roster full of those why do you want more?

In other words, if you feel better drafting two quarterbacks it means you don't have one.

I understand where you are coming from and I share the reluctance to trade away from superior talent.

But the above is not necessarily true.

If you have scouted properly, and the draft falls right for you, trading down gives you "more bites from the apple," so to speak, and a greater opportunity to add talent.

Two of the greatest drafts in NFL history (1986 49ers and 1991 Cowboys) involved teams that traded down.

Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!
