everyone saying we got jobbed we'll just have to wait and see what those picks produce

Why does that matter?

We had the 20, got the 27 and the 91.
They had the 22, got the 26 and the 83.

How is that not the definition of a better trade? They are still in front of us and got 8 extra slots higher than us.

Simple.

I want to think positive. It's who the Cardinals select with their picks.

They certainly got a better deal, I'm sure the Cards took the best deal they could get.

True.

But who says they approached the Cards?

On paper it is a better trade, my point was aimed at the 3rd rounder. We dont know if they even called the Cards, maybe they looked at the cash savings picking at 22 versus 20.

I think the Cards missed a major opportunity to compete for future Super Bowls when they passed Meziel at #20. Not #1 thru 5, but #20. But, we'll see.
