If you could get two high 1st round picks for a 4th rounder would you make the trade?

Because then the OP couldn't think he would trick everybody into admitting they would get rid of Prescott. He's so coniving he fooled himself.
Its really a simple answer followed by lots of discussion. No fooling around.

I like Dak but yes I would trade him for Haskins and another top 10 pick.

But that's not happening so silly thread.

If the 10th round pick had only been here a few years and wasn't a key playmaker on this team and was about to break the bank and I felt we wouldn't take a hit too hard at the position, hell yes. I've considered multiple things before suggesting this.

Well, that 10th round pick was hardly around the team at all in his first few years. He was not a key player for the team in the first few years. He did not break the bank and we already had a Pro Bowl Caliber QB as a starter and the fifth overall pick in the NFL, on the roster, as a backup QB.

The 10th Round Pick was Roger Stauback in 1964. He didn't join the team till 1969 or so. The starter, at the time, was Dandy Don Meredith, who would enjoy All Pro years 66,67 and 68. The backup was Craig Morton, who was the 5th overall pick in 1965.

I would not make that trade for 10 1st round picks. Roger was arguably the best player in the history of the Franchise. You can't always base trades on draft status. Some trades are bad trades no matter what.

The 1sts will most likely be two top 10 picks as desperate bottom feeders would be the ones to entertain this trade.

Supporting cast keeps getting better and you can continue running the same systems already implemented.

If not, why wouldn't you take the picks?

I thought I made it clear. I could've added that I don't expect two 1sts in a single year as not every bottom feeder has multiple firsts.

If you feel like the offense or defense won't take a nosedive due to scheme and what's being asked of either side, would you take this deal?
How could you think you made it clear when the only thing you mention trading is a 4th for two 1st? On top of that you didn't even put that in the OP you just left it in the title? Did you think this through?

I don't see any of your points

Once someone is drafted it is irrelevant when they went.....it is over with forever and has no bearing on the future

Bingo. It’s like stock investing. It doesn’t matter what you paid for a stock 3 years ago, it’s whether your thesis for buying that stock is still present at today’s price.

If you want straight forward simple answers without fooling around why not just come out and ask "would you trade Prescott for two 1st round picks?" Straight forward and simple. Now I'll give you a simple answer to the question you asked. Yes I would trade this year's 4th for two 1st what idiot wouldn't? What's left to discuss?

I would do it for two high 1st round picks in 2020. That is when Fromm likely comes out and that guy, I would trade for.

You got that right. There's only 1 team with multiple top 10 1st round picks and that's the raiders and I don't see them giving up 2 for Prescott when they have Carr. Second if those picks are over 2 years and the 2019 pick is say 10, in a QB poor draft, than I say no. That QB has no guarantee to be better let alone as good as Prescott.
.

I like Prescott, but I would probably trade the Raiders Prescott if I KNEW I could get Kyler Murray for him and also take Carr in the trade at a reduced salary.

Any GM willing to give up 2 1sts for Prescott would be the answer to the question "who is a worse GM than Booger"?
