We can't have everything.
We chose to forego this years 2nd rounder for Hampton. This may still pay off.
If the Gibbs deal had gone through then we wouldn't even have at least pick 13.
I agree with others that we possibly could have been a bit more creative in trading pick 13 and another to get 2 picks very late first round and one in the 20's./ 2 X early 20's.
We massively overpaid for Hampton.
We were completed dudded on the Lyons deal - we should've kept him and topped his salary up with whatever Thompson is getting.
I wouldn't give a flying toss if our first pick was 53 as long as we'd landed Gibbs because he is a gun mid ready to go NOW.
