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.

You're making the assumption that the players selected at the top of the first are always better. They don't. Is Eric Berry (5) better than Earl Thomas (14)? There's a reason they talk about what the draft would look like if done over years down the road. Its because the order they're drafted isn't actually how they end up playing.
