[QUOTE="net, post: 34862, member: 200"] Ya, lay that egg in Wolf's nest. Newsome got into some trouble with the law, as I remember. Regarding trading down: There's a fine line between a bust and savior in the top part of the first round. The agents(and fans) have hyped the draft to the point that these college kids are demanding more than the risk is worth. I would trade out of the first round every year to pick up two players later. Your chances of getting good players are better than a hit or miss on a great player. Much of it also is the team the player lands with. You will notice some of the busts rehab their careers with other teams that are built more toward the skills of that player. As an exercise sometime, go down the rosters of any NFL club. You will find that the teams are mainly players from rounds 2-6 and free agents. Numerically, of course you have a higher probability with more rounds, but you would think the "can't misses' in the first round would be around. They often aren't, or they are backups somewhere else. [/QUOTE]
