It's what you have to do to be successful. If you don't take the swing, you have zero chance. Can't be afraid to fail when you've been failing to reach the SB for almost 50 years. so every team that has been successful traded up to pick a QB? LOL OK Not the point I'm making, whether you have to trade up or not, you have to take the shot, why would you care if they trade draft capital if you think the draft is a crap shoot anyway? LOL

so lets look at the numbers provided in this thread: 135 qbs picked in the first round 17 won a Super Bowl equaling a 12.59% hit rate 4 won with a different team which means the team that picked them did not win because of that pick 13 won with the team that hit on them equaling a 9.63% hit rate. Not very good odds. I would argue that of the seventeen that won, none of them were because their team traded a bunch of draft capital to move up and dumped their best players because of the cap which is what the "tankers" and "move uppers" have been espousing this whole season. Yes, keep Cousins till he's 55 yrs old. We get it. Or do you have a secret place to get better odds? CFL? XFL? Kirk's children? i don think i said that at all in this post? but yes i have a better source and it is no secret at all, a trade or free agency and keep drafting QBs in rounds 3 and 4 and build your lines in rounds one and two. I guarantee your hit rate will be better than the "only way to be successful" method of trading capital to move up and pick in the first round.

It's only been around 30 years since they've been in a super bowl.

LOL i have always said you have to take a shot, draft capital is only a decent asset if it is in round one or two, and no way in hell i am throwing that away to move up and pick a real crapshoot which is an amateur QB. Pick line in one and two and qbs in three and or four
