I;'ll cut after draft

What's the origin of the extra picks?

never traded for alex smith or the original dolphins deals


2014 NFL Draft picks:

1. 23rd
2. 24th
3. 87th
4. 124th
5. 163rd
6. 193rd
6. 200th

What was the Dolphins deal? I'm just curious about the extra second round pick. (Not being a lawyer or anything, I'm just curious.)

its the alex smith trade I never made it so I have the two picks. Also had the trade with the jets last year.

Dolphins picks were the pioli trade for the o lineman

wow only two real players out of 2009 draft rest are out of the league

ok since we are allowed to trade once i'm taking that option and trading the number 23 to Houston or Washington for at least a second and third and whatever else is fair value whichever team has the better deal

You can use the draft chart in the original post to calculate the trade value of the #23 pick. Since we're working with perfect information, we have to discount the trade value significantly, so if you're going to trade down, multiply the point value of the #23 pick by 0.65. You can then pick up that many points' worth of picks from the team you're trading to.

As an example, the #23 pick is normally worth 760 points. You multiply that by .65 and you can trade it to Houston in return for picks worth 494 points.

Houston holds the following tradable picks (compensatory picks cannot be traded):

1-1 (1st pick) = 3000 points
2-1 (33rd) = 580 points
3-1 (65th) = 265 points
4-1 (101st) = 96 points
5-1 (141st) = 35.5 points
6-1 (177th) = 21.6 points
6-5 (181st) = 20 points
7-1 (216th) = 6 points

So your 494 points can buy you Houston's 3rd, 4th, 5th, both 6ths, and a 7th since they add up to less than that amount. However, you can't get their 2nd since it costs 580 points.

If you want their 2nd, you'd have to come up with more points, but that would make no sense. You could do that, but's not going to be worth it. Trade downs in this game have to be at a significant penalty, because otherwise we'd always trade down a few spots to get our guy and keep picking up extra picks.

I heard a trade Washington would trade second, third, fourth for 23 why can't i do that?

That doesn't make since that I'd only be able to get a third and fourth from the 23 why the heck would chiefs do that . Sorry that doesn't make since to trade up Washington would have to give up at least second and third rounder.

He explained it when he pointed out that without a steep discount in what you can get back for a trade, trades could easily be abused in this game.

We don't have anyone looking out for Washington's interests here. Who knows what goes into whatever it is that you heard. Maybe it's misinformation. Maybe it's true, but only if some specific player is available when the 23rd pick comes up.

Ok but that makes no sense and isn't reality that a team would trade their one for a third and fourth. Sorry that's where your scale is flawed I'm also trading before the draft that should be higher value according to what you said. If a team trades down in first usually involve second and some other picks

Right, it's not reality, it's alternate reality. And I agree, there's no reason to trade a 1st for a 3rd + 4th.

Personally, I would have been fine if we outlawed trades altogether because we never have anyone on the other side of the trade making sure it makes sense for the other team. But I'm OK with what we decided. Last year, I'm not sure any team would have traded up into the 1.1 for even a discounted rate of 65%.

Fine I'll keep the pick then no way am I trading first for a third and fourth

Yeah, the challenge in a game like this is that if you know exactly who is being drafted at what pick, you can get much more value out of your picks. For example, if you would draft a guy at #23 and you know for a fact that he will be there at #30, you can trade down at market value and pick up an extra pick in the process. In real life, you don't know the guy will be available at #30, so if you value him you won't trade down. So we have to eliminate the exploitation of having perfect knowledge.

If we made trades before the NFL draft, perhaps we could do it at market value without the discount because the perfect knowledge isn't there yet. I think we talked about that at some point and decided that it wasn't worth having to monitor when trades occurred. But even then, as patteeu mentioned, we don't have anyone monitoring the interests of the trading team, so we just shrugged and kept the post-NFL system.
