Would you rather have Derwin James?

Yeah, but I also heard them(nflnetwork i think) say most teams are comprised of 4-7th round guys. I guess you can say they are the meat n potatoes of teams, but not the "stars". 

which even further cements my point you don't trade up

James was the player I wanted the most, but now that the draft is over and the roster is shaping out, I'm very happy with how things turned out. Cam was thrilled that we got Moore and my greatest fear is that he might get fed up if we don't give him help and leave. This gives him time to build chemistry and grow together rather than draft one when Cam's deal is almost up. This is much better for the big picture if we keep the big guy happy and give him some actual talent to work with before it's too late.

I honestly think the Panthers were smart to load up on offense. This offense should have no problems dropping 35+ points on any team in the league. Our defense should be able to hold most teams to 25 points with who we have. 

Our offense should make for exciting football.

I'm happy with Moore & Jackson, but really.....really wanted James.

There's no way for sure to say the rest of the draft would have panned out the way it did, but based on who was available for us in the third, I would be happy with the trade, because we could have had...

R1: Derwin James

R2: Pick traded for James

R3: WR Michael Gallup or Antonio Callaway. Gallup is a sleeper and a great all around WR, but we probably would have had to give up a 6th to move up for him.....I'm ok with this. Callaway is a Josh Gordon level player on and, more so, off the field. Neither may be Moore, but would have given us a nasty WR weapon for Cam

R4: Ian Thomas

So, for me it comes down to James + Gallup/Callaway better or worse than Moore + Jackson + Gaulden.
