Yes, we still have needs at OL, RB, TE and safety. But the holes are getting smaller. ...I like having a GM!

Having a real GM is a treat. In Scott's first season he's already addressing the whole in the defense that the previous regime couldn't during their entire tenure (which ultimately got them fired).
Trading down sounds nice in theory except you need someone to trade up and more importantly what happens if you trade down and all the prospect you expected to be there are all gone? Then trading down doesn't look so great.
But I agree with you if Williams, Fowler (although I wouldn't go edge rusher that early) or Cooper are there you don't trade down.
