Re: Trading Down the 1st Rounder next year

That said, giving up next year's 3rd round pick for a guy who never sees the light of day (and will walk after the year as a free agent) may be one of the worst trades we've ever made. The NFL is littered with starters drafted in the 3rd round or later. Don't get me started on Gibbs's unwillingness to build a team with our own draft picks!!!  |
Gibbs believes veterans win Superbowls. He's old and wants to win now, not 5yrs from now.
