Our prospect pool is not bad as-is, and it's time this team starts to compete. Just like how LA made their big moves to push them over the top, our time is near.
That said - I would be surprised to see Tree deal two 1st round picks, but if he does it won't take me much to get on board, the hope would have to be that something additional is coming back (a 2nd or something)

I totally disagree. We should be thinking about now and the future every year. Just keep filling the pool. No 1st, 2nd or 3rd would be terrible for a team like this. We don't need 3 first rounders, but we should be trying to get a player or two per draft to stay competitive for a long time. Trading the 1st should be a non starter after already burning the 2nd and 3rd.
