I agree. I hate trading back. 5 years later, you always look back with pain at the guys you passed over. Take the best damn player on the board & move on.

contrarian take:

go look at past drafts

2011: as good as Von Miller was at #2, JJ Watt was taken at #11.
2012: the two best players in that draft -- Kuechly went at #9, and Chandler Jones went at #21

2013: three best players: Tyler Eifert at 21, Deandre Hopkins at 27, Travis Frederick at 31

2014: the best player, Aaron Donald, went at #13

i just dont see top 5 as any more likely to get a top 5 player in that class

It all depends where ARZ ends up. Right now we are at #4 and with a win today we could be #5 or #6. I have seen a couple of mocks where Oliver falls out of Top 5. As much as I like Oliver, I like Harry & Greedy Williams more.

Taking N’Keal Harry in the top 5 is a fireable offense.

Raiders have 3 1st round picks. If we finish with #1, would you trade it to the Raiders for the Beara pick and the Cowboys pick?

Same, there are like three potential franchise changing elite DL we will get our hands on, you don't pass on that elite talent.
