First, let’s translate the picks that Pittsburgh received into a single number. I have been saying for months that Pittsburgh should walk away from any deal with an average value less than a 2nd Round pick, with questions about whether even that much would be on offer. More on that later. First, did the team get that much value?
In exchange for the rights to Antonio Brown Oakland forked over the pics at 3:02 and 5:03. The NFL draft trade chart sets the value of those picks at 260 and 35 points, for a combined value of 295 points.
