Trade Deadline News

Can someone please explain something to me. Why are 2nd&3rd round picks (who have absolutely have no for sure value) valued so damn high? Why would you not take a for-sure NFL starter over a unsure rookie if you have the cap and are a super bowl contender?

[Anderson] Text from league source on whether any trade for #Jets S Jamal Adams is heating up right at this very this minute: "No"

Because rookie contracts are so relatively cheap. Draft picks are by far your best opportunity to get the best bang for the buck out of your cap space.

[Anderson] Text from #Broncos CB Chris Harris as trade deadline nears to me just now: "Still waiting. Quiet right now."

This has turned into a very boring trade deadline.

And teams can differ so much in player rankings that a lot of times a 2nd rounder is a top pick relative to your draft board

[Vacchiano] According to @mortreport , the best offer the Jets have gotten for Robby Anderson was a fourth-round pick. I heard they were asking for a second, but sources thought they'd eventually settle for a third. A fourth was never going to do it. Looks like Anderson is staying put.

I mean there's technically a few minutes left to get it done
