I'd rather see him traded for a conditional 5th rounder as supposed two 6ths. It's not like this team is able to find diamonds in the rough later in the draft.

Well, you can't get what isn't available. If they weren't willing to give a 5th (I'm under the impression we asked for a 5th and 7th) then you have to take what you can get.
