I see your point. Luckily I don't think either of us wants to get into a semantic debate about what a 'trade down' is.Not a trade down in the traditional sense of attaining more draft picks, but yeah those were masterful moves.
I think what I can take away from those moves, however is that we wanted more players than the picks we had AND identified good players who would be available later than our slotted pick. The latter being, for me, how Baltimore have operated so astutely for years now. Know the market and pay later in the draft order for the talent you want, if you possibly can.
