If we could have had Dallas' 2nd and 3rd (4th pick in the second and the third), I would have preferred that. Ifedi may not have made it 4 picks down, so that would have been a risky move, but we would have been picking early in the 3rth instead of late.
We wouldn't have had a 1st round pick then?? Denver's deal was much better.
Look at the trade value chart (Harvard):
Pick 26 is worth 700
Pick 31 and 94 : 600 + 124
Pick 34 and 67 : 560 + 255
It's not even close. The Browns and Titans pick before Dallas and it's unlikely that either would have taken Ifedi and we would have moved up from 94 to 67 in the third round.
We get a fifth year option on a player with a very high ceiling plus you don't know that Ifedi wouldn't have been taken, we seemed to think Cleveland wanted him. We also prevented a conference rival from potentially getting stronger.
