So he’s just trading down to accumulate some future 2nd rounders picks. Boston certainly did a better job of leveraging pick 32 for future 2nd rounders, but we’ll have to look at the combined return for both pick 31 and pick 36 for a fair comparison.

Dropping from 36 to 45 for just cash is a little dissapointing. You wonder if they thought someone would be there at 36 and then when they weren't there they were willing to make a move. Let's see what they do next.

I would think this cash would be on this league year so I'm not sure if any of this matters.

I don’t understand it either.

2nd apron team can't offer cash in trades. The perception was that because we're in the 2nd apron that we couldn't accept cash in a deal

That's possible but if they didn't they could have taken something more like the Boston offer.

We traded all the way down from 36 to 45 for cash??!! That’s pathetic.
