Quote:Obviously there are times when it doesn't pay to trade down. I was specifically talking about the pick used on Joeckel. Joeckel was not an elite talent, and the Jags had a very good (at the time anyway) LT. There was talk of filling the hole at RT, but Joeckel did not (and still does not) fit the mold of an NFL RT.


Don't try to put up a false equivalence between taking an elite talent who fills a need like Ramsey with picking Joeckel. The equivalent scenario would have been the Jags drafting Tunsil rather than trading down had Ramsey, Jack, and Bosa already been taken.
