And so the question here is ... what players for your team (if anyone) would you not trade for 2 1st round picks? To keep it simple we're not getting into who's trading the picks and so what part of the round are they likely to be in, just generally speaking for fun - 2 1's for your best players, who would you say no thanks about?
- Right off the top I'm not trading Deshaun Watson for 10 first round picks. Nope, no thanks. I believe he's special and I could draft for a decade and never land special. I'm good.
- Next, Laremy Tunsil. No, I don't think he's necessarily value-wise that good, at least not yet. But we gave two firsts for him already and it would be kinda ridiculous. Plus with a franchise qb already in the fold I don't have any desire to go out of my way to put him in harms way any more.
- Hardest one for me is DHop. He's incredible, but two 1's is a lot. Ultimately I say no thanks though. he fits hand in glove with his qb and he's so complete a wideout without being a diva I just don't know if I'll get a total return on that trade in the end. Maybe 3 1's, but not 2.
Aaanndd, that's it. Everyone else is fair game.
