If I was a Bronco fan, I won't be happy, but looking at from the league view of things I'd want to discourage contracts that made it difficult to judge fair comp, best way to do it is to value tricky or difficult contracts at max value. That will discourage others from doing the same in the future.

I understand the league wanting to discourage it. And yeah if this is the way they operate moving forward that is fine. I just think the fact that it doesn't look like they told teams this would be the case this year is a bit of a B.S. move by the league. I'm sure the Broncos would have designed Okung's contract differently if they realized it would eventually cost them a 3rd round pick.

Damn, that's a bad break. Only bright side is at least Oz isn't your starting QB.

True I would rather lose a 3rd round pick than be paying that guy huge money right now. Thanks for helping me look on the bright side of this situation.

It's always a good day when Oz isn't QB'ing your team.

It costs ridiculous amounts to move into that high top ten picks range, but less the further down the list you go. So I'm thinking a swap of 1st round picks PLUS two thirds would be enough to move into the 8 - 14 range?

So just spitballing here, Cleveland has the Eagle's #12 pick, and has been in the mode of quantity. So would our #1 plus two 3rds, be enough to move up to 12 if there was still an elite tackle available? Dunno.
Cleveland has 11 picks in the draft. Not sure they're looking to add picks? 4 picks in the first two rounds. Maybe picks in future years?

They may have 11 picks but i bet they miss on at least 60% of them. They will be lucky to get 5 players out of those 11 picks that make it on ANYONES roster let alone their own lol. It's the Browns for heavens sake.

That could be said for most teams not just Cleveland. The point was they don't really need picks. So to entice a trade a team would most likely need to offer a single high pick or a player or two. There is little incentive for them to stockpile additional picks for this season.

Well there is that. Besides once they pull the plug on Jimmy G, they'll need some more picks.
