- Not all picks in a round are equal; pick position within the round dramatically changes value.
- Middlecoff compares pick 13 vs 29 and explains teams overvalue blanket 'second-round' labels when assessing trades.
Why Cowboys Should Hesitate On Maxx Crosby Trade
- Dallas should avoid overreaching for Maxx Crosby if they're only a step away; use draft picks and free agency first.
