This year, every team is trying to trade up and reach for players they like because cost of doing so makes getting one player you like better than getting several that are OK.

TD understood rookie pay scale and abused it before anyone, but they get the credit this year for doing what TD did first, and better.

Those "C"'s mean nothing to me. JJ's trade was an "A" for last year and this one, alone.

absolutely correct. i even remember hearing one of the talking heads, i don't remember if it was Rich Eison or Mike Mayok who basically said what you just said, without giving TD so much credit. but the point is that's what TD did last year. you get a plus one sir!
