j/c...

Didn't hate the trade back when I saw the value. Disappointed in the fact (mostly as a fan) that we were already without a 1st round pick, that made it seem a little odd to trade back.

At the end of the day, the trade back netted:

CB Martin Emerson
DT Perrion Winfrey
K Cade York

I saw more than a couple posters say they would have been fine with Winfrey at 44. I know damn well if he was drafted at 44, most comments would be "immediate starter at area of great need". So, in a sense, we "got our guy" (although we took a rather circuitous route to get it done lol), and added a couple more.

Maybe the F.O. looked at their board and knew they needed a few more stabs to get multiple players they wanted at great value?
