This.Good points. The salary cap hit AND picks mean that teams pay on the double.
No team will pay "market value" AND give up 2 x 1sts.
That's the kicker.
Ex. Minn didn't trade for Cousins. People can debate if they overpaid in salary but they didn't lose draft picks in a trade
This is why the Cooper deal bothered me some. A 1st rounder PLUS a huge contract. But would've been real bad if we rented him for 1/2 season for a 1st rounder, so we had to sign him.
