    Not just any second round pick. But number 32.

    Claypool was traded during the season and had another year left on his contract, that pick wasn't #32 at the time of the trade :facepalm:. Claypool also wasn't as big as a knucklehead as Pickens.

    Is that really Tomlin?
    Are you upset because of the flaccid drawing?
    Hit too close to home>
    Hurt your feelings?
    Shake it like a Polaroid and nothing develops?

    Waiting?

    I don't recall Claypool having over $100,000 in fines in one season, or showing up late for a game fighting on the field. There were also reports Pickens was late to meetings.

    And this time cowgirl made a great deal. They can try this guy out for a year. Then let him get signed to a big contract by another team. And get a 3rd round comp pick.

    A guaranteed 3rd in 26 beats a possible 3rd in 27

    And the Steelers already tried him out

    It’s like when a hot looking chick walks into a bar and you want to jump all over her. But somewhere is a guy who is already sick of her crap.

    That is kind of a take on something Asa Baber once said in Playboy magazine. "Show me a hot looking woman and I'll show you a man bored with ----- her". Something along those lines.

    Claypool wasn't as good a player as Pickens, and his play had deteriorated after his rookie season. Funny how you left that part out.

    Where did I claim Claypool was on the same level as Pickens as a player? Stick to your bad takes on the Pickens trade :rolleyes:.

    Khan deserves the praise/criticism for the Pickens trade.... however you look at it. As much as I like to rip on Popcorn... this trade wasn't on him. Now development of Pickens... yes.

    We completely fleeced the Bears. Claypool was not worth a 2nd, especially where the second was ordered on draft day.

    I don’t think you can compare the Pickens trade to Claypool. The Bears were suckers and gave up way too much.
