Everyone here at the time was saying: "HAHAHA ATL gave up 2 firsts for a WR".

It wasn't just two firsts. Granted you guys moved 8 spots higher than we did, but y'all gave up 2 firsts, a second, and 2 fourths for the 6th overall pick.

We gave up two "starters" and a "special teamer" for a "high end starter".

You guys gave up three "starters" and two "role players" for an "elite starter".

So what y'all gave up was considerably more than what we did, for potentially not that much better of an impact player.

We "cost" ourselves one starter, while y'all "cost" yourselves two, plus the extra "role player/special teamer" more than what we gave up.

But we did it for a position that is regarded as the most important and hardest to find on defense, while y'all did it for a receiver.

So to try and compare these two trades is foolish.
