Assuming you didn't have the 1st or 2nd pick in the entire draft (Wentz and Goff) who would you have picked in the 2016 draft other than Dak? It looks to me that we got the one guy out of that draft that is worth anything. everyone else has been released or traded. That isn't saying we didn't luck into Dak but luckily he fell to us.
Wentz is probably the main argument. Maybe some would say Goff too, but let's stick w/ Wentz.
Philly got the 2nd overall pick by giving up their 2016 1st, 3rd, and 4th rounders, plus 2017 1st and 2nd rounds
We wouldn't have had to give up the 2016 3rd and 4th rounders, most likely as we were moving up 2 vs 6 spots. Then again, Cleveland mayve not traded unless we did...nobody knows for sure.
Assuming Cleveland would take our trade, this would be the cost
Wentz or
Zeke Elliott
Dak Prescott
Taco Charlton
Chidobe Awuzie
I won't argue which is better, but that is the cost.
