Now they prob blow that on a James Neal ! But it isn’t just the picks for a player coming off their entry level contract / due a new contract . It’s the $ you are paying them

NFL figured this out a long time ago in a true cap world . Very good players wanting to be paid like stars get traded for picks every year , while teams lock up their stars and superstars

Trading picks AND signing a market deal ? What’s the point .
The moves were pointless. Didn't do anything of impact and there were still glaring holes in the lineup. But Tre liked to wheel and deal.
