Every team MUST have spies on other teams...

April 28, 2019 06:08AM
I know it's crazy, but it just seems so weird that we trade down, trade down, trade down...gathering what 4-5 3rd rounders?!...
then, we trade back up to draft a guy we coulda drafted if we stayed put and saved a pick in doin so. I was just frustrated with moving down then giving up so much draft capital to move back up....crazy!!

Reporters are NOT asking that question after the draft...how do teams know when to jump up and in front of whom - to draft a player that, otherwise, looks like they're happy to wait to come to them AFTER a trade down. I know Snead could never say he had inside help....but he could wink/nod and say relationships are very strong in the NFL or something. i mean, it must be an open secret in the NFL...this issue.

No team complains cuz every team must do it....and benefit. .....just interesting to me , I guess.

  I don't mean spies in the literal sense...just the flow of the draft...

  I'm sure there is some "intel" passed along the way...

  Someone could make (or is making?) literally millions of dollars with "big data"

  exactly, it was pure hyperbole to call them spies for effect....
