Question on draft pick cost

[FuturePhin]

What’s the normal cost of getting into the top 5 if we use Houston’s first rounder plus what exactly to get there? Say they finish at number 20. I feel we need some big impact players and trading up even if we have the number one overall needs to be done .

From 20 to 5 would cost a lot a first and then some

The opposite of what you said needs to be done, should be done.

We would be the team giving up the high draft pick for more picks. That's what this franchise has to do every year for the foreseeable future to keep these picks in our arsenal.

Without the power of hindsight only a strength in numbers philosophy makes sense for a team in need of so much talent.

If the Chargers gave us Joey Bosa to rent for the 2019 season, where would we end up? Same place.

Myles Garrett, Julio Jones, Quentin Nelson, which of those top picks propel us to a win?

That's why I chuckle at the "imagine if we get Jeudy" crowd.
