ORIGINAL: Chris Olson so we gave them 53 and a third and a 6th, but got 42 and a 4th rd pick... not sure of numbers Basically turned 34, 77, and 192 into Booth, 59, and 122. That is a massive W. If you like Booth at 34, then it's basically 77 for 59 and 192 for 122. If you don't like that, there is no hope for you. You could even say Hamilton, 46, 77, and 192 for Cine, Booth, 59, and 122. Comes down to the delta between Hamilton and Cine. If it's huge in favor of Hamilton, volume and move ups might not even out. But if it's close or Cine is better, the Vikings have made out huge so far. No, introducing false narratives like Hamilton has nothing to do with the picks involved in a trade. But if you must, last time I checked Cine was passed over by every team in the 1st except us. Hamilton wasn't. Don't really get what is the false narrative you cite. Picks are only as good as the players you take with them, of course. If you want to do everything so far, it's: 12, 46, 77, and 192 for 32, 42, 59, 66, and 144 That looks like tons of value to me. As I tried to articulate, of course it matters who you end up with. I'm definitely sympathetic to picking premium players at premium positions (as I advocated before the draft), and we didn't get that it seems. But I was trying to point out the possibility that the difference between Hamilton and Cine might not be as dramatic as many think could make the deals even better for the Vikings.
