This is why I’ve espoused trading down in the draft every single year. Accumulate more picks instead of trading up and losing picks. When you have a good roster and only need a player or two to supplement it, trading up might be the way to go but not in a total rebuild which is the phase are entering.
I must admit I liked the Jim Finks approach....Needed a starter at RB in 1986. Draft four! (We end up with Mayes, Hilliard, Word, Fenerty - every one a good player) Need DB depth in 1987 draft four!....(Adams, Mack, Atkins, Cook - 3 pretty good).
If Jim had Drew Brees, we'd have won a Superbowl or two in the late 80s/90s.
