when you trade down, the next thing you know you are drafting Isiah Pead. I prefer quality to quantity. Unless you are getting an extra 2nd or 3rd rd pick, I probably just take studs that drop.
Drafting Isaiah Pead is just bad scouting nothing can make up for that. It's not the fault of trading down because honestly both picks 40 and 45 should produce something good.
Yeah taking Pead was the issue there, not trading down. In that draft, the next couple of dozen or so picks after 50 included Levonte David, Kelechi Osemele, Casey Hayward, Olivier Vernon, Brandon Brooks, and Russell Wilson.
