You can probably rule out taking Tetaoira (or whatever) McMillan with our top 10 pick.
Yeah, this makes that a non-issue because we got a former 2nd round pick for a 4th which in Jones math equals a 3rd

What the fuck?

A fourth? :doh :mad'

I wonder if Jerry talked to anyone else about this one before he did it.

I'm 10000% sure they justified the price by McClay arguing that we had him graded as a 2nd rounder just 18 months ago (which is fair), and Stephen arguing that it gives us a rookie deal potential starter for two more years.

I like Mingo fine but a 4th when we're going to end up 6-11 is ridiculous and just another example of how this organization operates like a hermit kingdom.

Mingo is an amazing athlete and I guess we can’t judge on time spent in Carolina, but man, just feels like wasting another draft pick. And like this will help anything this year

At the very least we aren't giving up picks for a 2024 rental, which would be the absolute dumbest thing.

Mingo is at least theoretically a piece for the future even if it's an overpay.

Right, just like with Lance. Same rounds and everything.

But how can you always use that logic? I bet they had Johnny Manziel and Josh Rosen as first or seconds also. Does that mean trading anything less than that for them would make trading for them a good deal?

Not saying Mingo can't play like those guys, but still, the point stands.

When you refuse to do anything in FA these are the types of moves you resort to.
