A high draft pick sounds nice, but you know once those stupid towels start waving and Ben acts all dramatic , your going to be all in.

How about a tie? Lol
just looking at some recent trades:
Philly moved up from the 12th pick to the 10th pick (Dallas) in 2021 for an extra 3rd rounder
Bucs moved up from 14th to 13th (49ers) in 2020 for a pick swap of a 4th for a 7th
Steelers moved up from 20th to 10th (Broncos) in 2019 for an extra 2nd and a future 3rd
Cardinals moved up from 15th to 10th (Raiders) in 2018 for an extra 3rd and 5th
Bills moved up from 12th to 7th (Bucs) in 2018 for a pick swap of 2 2nd rounders for a 7th
Rams moved up from 16th to 8th (Bills) in 2013 for a pick swap of a 2nd, 3rd and 7th for a (higher) 3rd
couple of notes -
1) you're right that it's not always a steep cost to get up there
2) there's not a ton of trades that happen in the sort of range we're talking about and that's possibly for a couple of reasons... lack of willingness of teams ahead to give up the chance at the guy they want and lack of willingness to give up picks from teams moving up for what may well be similar talent
you may notice the gap between 2013 and 2018 - not because i skipped any years lol - because not many qualifying or similar trades happened in those years - a surprising number of picks for players type trades but not a ton of mid-1st to higher-1st trades
yuck

It would be fitting for all to fall into place other than the Browns losing last game to Cinci. They screw us again.

Besides all that, any HC who has a chance to make the playoffs and doesn’t do everything he can to get there is useless. Especially against a long time division rival. If the browns lose tonight it will be game on this week. Lol

John has a helluva tan there. lolThe Ravens dropped 5 games in a row. Now, Big Ben (who may retire) is coming to town. As the late great John Madden would say:
sign the mother f now.
yeah, those towels will turn to tissue paper by the end of the 1st quarter.

I was just talking about that shit with a Steelers fan at the bar yesterday. Heartbreaking and I had my parents in town for a visit. Not sure they've ever seen me lose my shit like that lol

We really have had some last second, gut wrenching losses over the years. Being Christmas Day made that one of the worst.
sucks that they've come in an ultimately likely meaningless season but....
the chiefs, colts, vikings, lions endings from this year give me so much life lol

Yeah the regular season stuff happens, but damn. The AB catch, The Lee Evans drop/Cundiff miss, Dalton/Tyler Boyd TD, etc., the ones with tournament implications really bite the whole bag.
well 2018 was pretty glorious with the CJ Mosley and the steelers watching on the field at heinz field realising live that their season was ending
