The way I look a it is in these type of trades you're going to get two types of prospects off of other teams:

1) Prospects that were at one time highly touted by the organization, but have since failed to develop properly and somewhat fallen out of favor (Joe Morrow)

2) Prospects that were either drafted low, undrafted, or are not the top couple prospects in an area of strength for the organization.

With the first type of prospect you can hope they get back on track and live up to earlier expectations, but it's not a guarantee. With the second type you have to focus on prospects that aren't just living up to their draft position, but are outperforming it. It seems like all of the guys Feaster has targeted are doing that. Only time will tell if this strategy pays off in the long run, but I think it's the right one to take.

Also, keeping the 1st rd picks in the deal obviously effects what caliber of prospects are included. If we really wanted a Schwartz/Rattie that first would have become a 2nd/3rd. Again, I think it's better to keep the first.
