Re: How the draft looks if we trade down

For example, what if Leonard Williams is sitting right there? At what point is a trade worth missing out on a potentially game-changing player at a position of need? It's got to be something nuts that we get in return.
Agree. The lack of talent on the Skins is grossly over-stated. Better QB play alone would have amounted to 4-5 more wins. People act like every team in the league except us has a pro-bowler at every position.

Bad QBs get sacked behind any line, but sure, go ahead and upgrade the Right Tackle with the best player available at 5. Use the rest of the draft and FA on Defense.

Dallas has a less talented Defense, but their Offense worked.

More lower picks will likely lead to more mediocre players. Maybe they can land a pro-bowler at 5. Don't trust their ability to find talent in any round but the first.
