The more time I've had to mull this over the less I like the trade.
This is Rasmus for magic beans, and Whitecloud, who either you flip for a mid round pick or ends up leaving as a free agent in a couple summers.
Yes, it's possible the picks turn into something. But would have much rather had one first or second and a prospect who already looked like he could fill Rasmus' shoes or another impact role a little earlier in the future than these picks MIGHT do.
If this was the best offer right now, should have continued to wait. What was the urgency to move him in January for this return?
