Burke insists he isn't done making trades which could include these picks and that's the only way this kind of deal makes and kind of sense. This trade goes against the agenda Burke seemed to have so I'm still scratching my head on this one but who knows if it will make sense by draft day.
I like it - reminds me of the early mask paint jobs of the late 80's/early 90's

I guess the problem lies in the fact he traded 2 lottery picks and a second rounder for a guy that is there number 1 forward but only has the production of a 3rd liner then.
