It is amazing how fans and talking heads seem to forget that every year. Look at how many generational talents and can't miss prospect there always are.

That could be used as an argument to trade down from the #2 pick.

There's definitely an argument for trading down. If you can turn that one "generational" player into three really good players (starters), the team is better off. IMHO...

Re: NFL Free Agent Signings 2020

Some drafts just don't have the talent, it varies greatly from year to year.
Having a high pick is a matter of good timing quite often, this year is a great year to have one, but also as a result a great year to parlay that into a multi-pick trade.
Five years ago the league was desperate for good QBs. It just wasn't a good draft so no one wanted to trade up to the top 10, the Redskins were trying to trade down like many of the top 10 teams because there was little value there.

The argument is legit... but on the long term if Chase Young really is what he is said to be, I think the team is better off having that 1 true difference maker in the trenches.
While not in favor of it, I wouldn't hate trading down but it'd have to be for a massive haul of picks.

Either/or I'm fine with, but if I'm Miami I'm using those first 3 rounders to trade up for Joe Burrow. 3 first rounders in the same year ought to buy you the leverage needed to draft anywhere in the first round.

Nope. I know Burrow is good but there are alot of other QB's in this draft and I don't think he is worth 3 #1's.

Right, I know this is your personal opinion but Miami's personal opinion of Burrow is more relevant to where they want to trade to.
