The chances of us doing those things now, with almost 2 draft classes worth of picks and a lot of cap space: pretty good.
And we were only giving up 2 or so years of peak production from Hill. Speed players don't usually drop off gradually. He will probably be effective in the league for several more years, but elite production from Hill is predicated on elite speed which doesn't usually last beyond 30. The clock is ticking on that.
It was the right move.

TY Hilton started declining severely in his age 29 season, similarly sized.
