All that with an assistant HS coach running the offense.
Now if you want to make an upgrade with a 5-7 round pick(s), groovy, but not 1-3.
Race the track, not the drivers.

Stick to your plan. Build your team. Stop being reactive; it's a roadmap to disaster.

I believe O.City has used this analogy in discussing draft picks - the dartboard. Would you trade 2 of your 3 darts to get 2 steps closer to the board? 3 steps? 4?

There's always a calculus involved here and sometimes that answer is yes. The Mahomes trade was trading away 2 darts to stand AT the board and slam the ****ing thing into the bullseye. You make that move.

The Clark trade? That was 2 darts to put one foot over the line.

And anything we do right now may only cost us a single dart, but it's only gonna get your toes over the line in the process. At some point, just keep the damn darts and take your chances with what you have.

We're at that point.
