We traded up for Little. And while Hurney may be a moron, there are other morons who make stupid decisions every year. Someone will trade up for whoever they want and are afraid someone is gonna snatch before they can get them. Again, it literally happens every year. Hell, it could be Mac Jones. It could be Slater. It could be Pitts. It could literally be anyone who is projected to go in the first round. 

What would a team be willing to give up for one of those guys though? I dont want to get fleeced in a trade because  "more players". You are talking about #2 guys and secondary positions.

I don't want to trade back to 12-15 and only pick up a extra 2nd or 3rd in the process

I’d do it for a 2nd probably not a 3rd

 

if all qbs chase Sewell and Pitts are gone

I think there’s plenty of examples of why it’s possible likey maybe not .. but very possible

Extra picks. I trust our team. If they think we can get more value out of the trade than we can picking one player, then we'll take the trade. If there's someone there we really want, we won't. I'd prefer to trade back because I think we can build a solid OL and gather some solid backups with this year's picks, but that's just me. I'm at the point where I'd rather have 2 decent starting OL than one spectacular TE or WR.

I dont want a WR or TE early in the draft anyway.

The problem with decent OL is how decent are they? Atlanta went that same route and got 2 decent OL in the 1st round and they both turned out to be not so decent, their line was worse than ours last year.

If we cant get a QB and nobody blows us away with a trade offer, we have to take Slater or whoever we think is the best OT.

I don't disagree. If we trade back, I'd like to see us pick up an extra 2nd or 3rd. Again, I'm not a fan of Slater as an OT. I think Darrisaw is OT #2. I think we could possibly trade back and snag him. If not, we could grab Mayfield in the 2nd. If not him, Eichenberg.

As far as taking "decent" OL that turn out not so decent, that's a gamble with every single pick in this draft...including those rated as first-rounders. It's literally a guarantee that several first-rounders will be busts. Again, happens every year. At some point, you have to trust your scouting dept. They did well last year, let's see if that was a fluke or not.
