  • Howie didn’t want to give up any more picks

    I think that’s the bottom line. Thats probably why they didn’t trade with Atlanta to get Lamb. I told my wife (who was getting ready for work at the time), when the clock winds down to below 2 mins, teams are probably talking trade. That’s what they started the offseason saying, then they gave up 2 to get Slay. He has to make this team cheaper and younger and the only way to do that is by having more than 5 picks in the draft. And some of these teams probably were asking for a 2nd rounder to move up. The Bucs gave up a 4th rounder to move up one spot to 13 while also getting back a 7th rounder. When the Eagles selected Maclin, they moved up 2 spots for a 6th. But you can blame some of these teams for paying inflated prices for players—the Pats giving up a 2nd for Sanu is a good example—for them not to trade up and snatch Lamb.
