I really am struggling with the value some of these guys are getting. 

 

Robert Quinn for a 4th rounder

Michael Bennett for a 5th rounder and some bum receiver

Marcus Peters for a 2018 4th and 2019 2nd

 

Seriously? Bennett is an outstanding defensive linemen, equally great at rushing the passer from all positions on the line. Players like that shouldn't be available for a 5th round pick. What is that 5th round pick going to do for you? The odds that a 5th rounder will bust are pretty high, and they are more likely a backup then an impact player. 

 

If one team acquired all 3 players, they'd seriously upgrade their defense for a pretty much nothing. 

 

 

Don't forget Marcell Dareus for a fifth rounder...

Used to be all about getting better.  Now it is better AND/OR cheaper.  I guess cheaper lets you keep the guys you value.  Look at Bills and Dareus

Think about a team like the Browns getting all of those players. 

They've got the picks and the cash, and would still have plenty of 1st through 3rd round selections for the next two years. 

Their defense would improve by leaps and bounds!
