Re: Like DB says, the draft trade value chart is outdated...
it's not outdated, it's the reality of a "market"... when you're selling and no one is buying, you're gonna be forced to sell lower than you want to.My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.
MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!

Re: Like DB says, the draft trade value chart is outdated...
A: The Value Chart is little more than a guideline. A pick is only as valuable as another team is willing to pay for it. That goes for any pick in any round.
B: Pretty sure the chart was made before the new CBA, which really cut back on how much money is paid to draft picks, especially in the first round.
So, yeah, the chart probably is outdated, but again, the pick is only worth what another team is willing to pay for it, regardless of what the chart says it is worth.

Re: Like DB says, the draft trade value chart is outdated...
It was followed just about to a tee in the Bills' trade
They gave up:
8-1400
71- 235
Total 1635
They received
16- 1000
46- 440
78- 200
222- 2.6
Total 1642.6
Oakland's given away so many 1sts, they aren't used to drafting much.
I have no idea what Minny was thinking, but that's their problem.

The other trades were all pretty close in value, which / this thread.

Read this. Teams are still using it, and it's causing them to give up too much.

Re: Like DB says, the draft trade value chart is outdated...
It's more about what is available. The Raiders knew they wanted Hayden, they also knew there was no point in drafting him at #3. Miami was their best offer so they took it. What point would it be to just draft Hayden at 3 because no one offered "fair value."True fans want wins, not draft picks.
