We have to be getting more. We just have to.
Nope, no picks for next year, it is the 2nd worst trade in history after the Walker trade

Dude was a beast on Wall Street. He’s not exactly retarded.
I’ll give this a benefit of a doubt, just please don’t draft Pickett or Howell.

THey left 40 draft choice points on the table with this deal which is the 97 pick overall. Idiotic.

There is no benefit of the doubt at this point. Totally inexcusable move.

It's the owners at this point. We had a chance for a true rebuild. But all we've heard is the "competitive rebuild". Same as before. They want to be "competitive" every year. So we'll be .500 forever.

I know but I am talking about 2 different trades and they are both the worst trades in history

Next two picks are exactly the two guys we should have took a shot at.
But I guess we don't know as much as those franchises, obviously.

I hope he will be fired before he has the chance to make a selection.

This is way worse than anything Spielman ever did.

Maybe Rick gave Chris Spielman some inside information to help fleece his old team?
