Here's where I'm at with the Worthy pick trade. Full disclosure: I wanted them to draft him. So if the Bills stay at their original pick and draft Coleman and the Chiefs still get Worthy I'm probably not happy either.
I'd much rather they have some conviction and pick their guy.
1) It removes any doubt about who they wanted. If anything, trading down signals the guy they really wanted was already gone, not that it was Coleman.
2)The compensation was weak. Equivalent to a 6th rd pick. Cheapest 1st round trade up in years.
3) Guarantee KC gets their guy. I don't care what you say there's no way anyone knows if Worthy would have fallen to them or they could strike a deal with another team.
4) You're giving up the slight advantage you had over other contenders by letting them pick before you. And again, no way to know if Coleman would still be there.
