“Every team has a different plight, every team is in a different place, different direction, different phase in their team building.”
“ We have a plan in place that we don’t want to alter, we don’t want to mess with that,”
At 6-2, ya know what that means….

The league is designed for teams to not stay in first for long. From the way the draft works to the schedule. Playing a first place schedule is no joke and you slide capitalize on an easier schedule while you can.
I trust Brad’s overall vision but anyone saying moving a pick especially not a first rounder is “mortgaging the future” is just dumb. Even the best teams waste draft picks all the time, look at 49ers they traded 3 1sts for a QB they essentially cut 2 years later. Trading away a second round pick should have absolutely no long term impact on a team, if it does there are bigger issues as there is like a 40% chance that player picked there is a bust anyway
