What picks do we have now?
-
Top five picks still intact, and thats good news (2 first rounders and 3 second rounders).
IIRC, we traded #65 (pick 1 in 3rd round) for Tyrod Taylor and 4th round for Landry. Next year we lose a 7 rd pick to the Fins, too.
So we keep 10 picks.
I don't know which 4th rd pick we lose and which one we swap with GB, but we pick #1 and GB #14, so if in both cases we swap OUR pick, we lose 13 spots in 4th and 5th round.
EDIT: We had #97 and #119 (from CAR) on 4th round, and GB #110, so I guess we send #119 to MIA, and swap #97 to GB, ending up with only #110. I've confirmed in 5th we lose 13 spots.
The thing I like the most is that these trades achieve two things:
1. We become more atractive to coming free agents.
2. We lose some draft picks, but not draft "power" as we still have our first 5 picks. As you said, we have an already young roster and adding 12 rookies might be too much (quantity wise).

Well said.
And I think we still have enough draft pick 'power' to do more in the here and now, and/or in the draft.
