I guess my worst case scenario would be trading back out of the top ten and not getting at least an additional 1st rounder next year. I’m not a fan of trading back for extra picks, especially out of the top ten, unless we can really get a good haul for it. Missing out on a top talent like Parsons or Sewell or Surtain is t worth picking up an extra second or third round pick to me. I know Paton likes the “more darts” philosophy, but not particularly being good at darts myself, I’d rather just make the ones I have count than do the “spray and pray” method.
Drafting CB is still a priority, imo, they have two CB’s under contract beyond this season. CB is also a lot like QB, in that, you usually won’t get the elite prospect unless you’re in the lottery ... so maybe you take that player now while you’re in position.
