I suggest you get over it 

Posted by someone in another thread that proves my concern that I always have on trading out of rounds 2-3.....

I found this on another site, and it's a few years old, but it's interesting.  This table shows how many players make the roster for a team, by the round they're drafted in, and whether they're on the team in year 2, 3, etc...  It uses data from 2004-2014.

Round	Year 1	Year 2	Year 3	Year 4	Year 5
1	99.7%	93.5%	83.9%	77.4%	71.0%
2	96.8%	96.1%	83.9%	74.2%	41.9%
3	96.9%	75.1%	62.5%	37.5%	18.8%
4	91.4%	74.3%	54.3%	34.3%	17.2%
5	81.1%	56.8%	37.8%	24.3%	16.2%
6	70.2%	57.5%	35.3%	20.9%	10.6%
7	58.3%	45.8%	31.3%

Josh Sweat DE Florida St- Again, depth but also could be a good replacement for Peppers after he retires

Don’t know why many of you want to draft 3-4 edge OLBs to play DE in a 4-3.

So they can play with their hand in the dirt and get repeatedly pancaked by NFL OTs?

Gotta filter out the people who clearly don't know poo about football and decide who to respond to mate.....

Edit: they could also just be channeling their inner Hurney trying to convert people.

Man, new ownership can’t happen fast enough.  Maybe one day we won’t be the laughing stock of the NFL.

I don't mind us trading back as much as I wish we would have got a little more value out of it.

As others have said we lost about 20 points of value on a 150 point pick.  I;m surprised we didn't try to get Green Bay's last pick in the 5th (174) which is worth about 20 points.

Here is a chart that includes values for the comp picks

If anything we could have thrown in our 7th (234) if needed.

88 and 234 for 101, 147, and 174 would work out a lot closer on the chart.  

On a positive note though I like having the first pick of a new draft day.  I wouldn't be surprised if we trade down again.  You have all night to talk to teams and they have all night to convince themselves its worth it.  I wouldn't trade down much, our board has got to be getting sparse, but it doesn't hurt anything to trade down if you are confident you can get the same person plus a free pick.

Or for me, I was clearly stating who was best available. It does not mean we will draft them but from a Hurney point-of-view, I could see it happening.

After reading the huddle the last 24 hours. One thing is abundantly clear. We still have one of the worst fanbases in the league. What a bunch of babies.

And when Cam retires you won't be a part of the worst fanbase so alls well.

But we didn’t miss out on anyone and got so much more time to reset. This was a good thing

 Another "Cam fan" insult? You are so basic.

Lots of people are posting as if trading down is inherently bad. It's not. Depends on who wanted the trade and what we get and about 100 other things.

Having said that we got a TE that had 28 yards at Indiana last year.
