tyron smith probably was the best tackle in FA talent wise (but old and misses time to injuries). Guessing he took the deal because other people were probably offering 6-10 without 13m in incentives. It's not like Dallas is going to be able to pay him.

as far as trade down, i'd rather keep it simple - need QB, in position to take QB - take QB. There are just too many ways to outsmart yourself and end up holding the bag, and if that happens, the fanbase and media will kill you for it.

I mean, there's always a world where penix never gets injured again and outplays everyone else in the draft, but it's a lower % chance than JD5 looking nfl ready year 1. No one's going to destroy you for doing the groupthink higher % play (and it is more likely to work out).
