That draft class is absolutely stacked with talent from top to bottom. Even without looking at the draft preview, you can walk away with 90+ potential players in every round. You did get some really good picks, but you probably could have had the same kind of draft without trading all those future picks away. Some of those picks you could have actually gotten higher rated players later in the draft. I think you wound up hurting yourself losing all those draft picks in the next two years, but that's just my opinion.

If you've got a good team already, you made out pretty good. But if you have a less talented team I'm not sure a handful of players, a lot of which are going to cost a lot of your cap room to sign, are going to do much for you over the long hall.

As an example of what I mean, in my last draft, I picked up two undrafted rookie WR after the draft who both turned out to have 96 potential. You don't have to trade up to get high picks, although I would have probably went after Marrow as well just because I like him as a QB.
