Quote:That it is time to trade down for once! We need to accumulate more talent all over the field and find guys who will truly make an impact.


We have traded UP in the past 10 years or so, and it clearly has not worked in our favor. I'd love to stockpile on picks and bring in as much young talent as possible.


With the Jets at 6 and in need of a QB, I'd love to see us trade with Buffalo (pick 10), who is also in need of a QB. Something along those lines

The trades up in the past decade didn't work, most notably because we picked the wrong players. 

 

Had we traded up from 16 to 10 in 2011 and taken J.J. Watt instead of Gabbert, we wouldn't have this discussion.

 

That said, given the way Caldwell has identified talent, I think the right trade down would benefit the team.
