Why?



i'm fine with the pick (i know absolutely nothing about the player) and the idea in general. it's a smart strategy. i wish they had started using it about 4 years ago.


but it's not a 2018 1st round pick. saying so is just sort of bullshite PR to me. for instance, what type of contract are they signing him to? things can get tricky there, unlike with some of the built in protections for teams w/ 1st rounders.

i'm fine with them dealing the pick for Cousins. they should do that deal 10/10 times. and i'm fine with taking this guy. just be honest to your fans about what you did

It is PR bullshite, but like you said, it's a good strategy they should have started 4 years ago. If this is truly a market inefficiency Demps has discovered, will he be around long enough to see it pay off?

I'm guessing he'll get what Diallo got, a 4 year deal where the 4th year is an RFA tender offer year.
