One may not like the selection of a punter, but he gives a pretty nice first interview. Sox fans may think otherwise.

no such thing as a much needed punter

use THIS year's 4th on the guy if you like him so much. save next year's 4th and skip the punter. christ

That's pretty much the value of a 5th this year- a 4th next year. So he got equal value, and just accelerated the process by a year. What's to complain about?

Hard to take seriously anyone who thinks a punter might be your best pick in decades.

Are we ruling out sarcasm? IDK know about that comment.

too detailed in its defense to be sarcasm

nonsensical statement. total fallacy. there is no "time value of draft pick" like there is a time value of money. GMs do that **** when their jobs are on the line. THAT's when this year's pick becomes more valuable
GMs tend to value present picks more than future picks because it benefits them personally, not because it benefits the team overall

Saving this post for when Tory Taylor pins KC inside the 5 with less than 2 minutes left in the Super Bowl.

That's only relevant in a vacuum though. If the guy who you're trading up for has a high enough grade, it can be worth the value.
As an absurd, obviously impossible example, if we traded a future 4th for the pick to draft Malik Nabers in the 5th round this year, you do that every time.

It shouldn’t be too difficult to upgrade Dominique Robinson anyway. Appropriate round for a redux.

Wonder what this was all about. Could be nothing I suppose but a little odd.

poles has no sense of value and the way he's going he will waste caleb's long-term potential to win super bowls. he's ryan pace redux except he was correct to tear it down when he came in and he thus lucked into caleb. whereas pace's fate was ultimately tied to trubisky
