Didn't Les Snead trade down with his old mentor in Atlanta Tom Demitroff?
Yeah....per wikipedia we got Taylor Rapp and David Long with Falcons' 2nd and 3rd Rounders in 2019.
Back to your premise....I agree 100%, trading our First Rounders has yeilded us guys we could stack up against any NFL Teams 1st Round Draft harvests of the past 5 Seasons!
George Allen eschewed Draft Picks TOO back in the day....traded them like Penny Stocks for proven veterans.
Allen's comeback when criticized for it was : THE FUTURE IS NOW!!
