My favorite teams
Did Buffalo need to trade up to 7 and give that much to get their guy or could they have given us less for the same result? Teams trade up like that all the time for a targeted player because they haven't a clue if other teams are bidding and they want him that badly. By the Pace standard all these teams may have been fleeced by either not needing to move or giving higher value per pick. You only fleece yourself if the player doesn't become what you projected. GMs aren't clairvoyant and you can't fault them for getting their guy.
