everyone knows we got great value in the deal, but i don't think we can reasonably say we fleeced the seahawks yet. we have to see how they do this year and the next couple of years. we have to see what we do with the picks
im a fan of JD's scouting/talent evaluation and i really liked the draft he put together this year, but we obviously cannot say anything about the results of this draft yet, and we can't assume that future picks that he has to use will be slam dunks
this is my biggest qualm with this organization. we are all looking at the draft picks, we draft stars and trade them away because we're not able to foster the environment of a winning organization consistently and make our players happy. it's simple, build a winner and players will be happy. the former players who've been our biggest allies and advocates have been the cogs from our 2009-2010 teams
the extra picks are just hypotheticals until joe uses them and hits on them. at this point i'd rather use the picks to obtain a bona fide player/star, but we probably don't have the luxury of going down that route, because we suck
