Quote:3 first rounders PLUS anything, much less 2 3rd round picks, is not realistic.


I don't like outside of the top 8 or so. Which got me thinking, why be at 12 when 19 isn't that much worse. Give me the extra picks instead.

3 first round picks should be expected. The RG3 trade pretty much solidified that. They took less of a drop, and got 3 1sts and a 2nd.


You're giving a team a what they believe is a franchise QB, if you're willing to take only 2 first round picks for a QB that will change their franchise and be with their team the next 10-15 years, I'm sorry, but you got skunked.


Taking only two 1st rounders would be trading down just to trade down.


Caldwell himself said the trade would have to be substantial. Two 1st rounders is a low ball offer, and would seriously have the Brown's FO laughing in your face.


Think about it. If you were able to get a QB you thought was going to be the face of your franchise for the next decade and a half, and the team you're trading with only asked for two 1st rounders, how fast would you make that trade?


If you only make out with 2 first rounders, you're an idiot.
