Quote:  If another team is willing to pay a higher trade compensation premium than the top player remaining on draft board at the top of Round 2,  I would make the trade the vast majority of the time. 

 

  Regarding what you mentioned earlier on page 3 of this thread,  " The constant whining about good players who actually are doing their jobs right is nothing but Jaguars hatred".  :

 

  When a fan of their favorite team believes that a player is performing at a 4th or 5th Round level but was drafted in the 1st or 2nd Round,   that's not my definition of team hatred.   For a team to be able to compete at a high level on a consistent basis,   you need players to perform above, at,  or near the spot of the draft they are taken in.    Tyson Alualu also comes to mind regarding the Jaguars.  He's been an NFL caliber role player for a number of years.   But as someone who was taken with pick # 10 back in 2010,   MUCH more was expected.   The criticism isn't really regarding the player in most cases like his.   It's with those responsible for the decision in taking him with pick # 10.
