The value of these particular draft picks is getting skewed by the market value of the position. And a pass-rushing DT is currently more valuable than ever in cap room terms than it has probably ever been.
Justin Madubuike just got a 4 year $98 Mill deal.
Chris Jones' new deal is $31m a year
Christian Wilkins is on $24m a year.
Now, if Fiske ends up anything like those players, who knows. But the point is, that position has become a lot more expensive in the league. And so giving up a 2nd rounder and a 5th to go up and get one - that has to be taken into account.
Now we'll see how Fiske plays. Fingers crossed.
Actually it was a future 2nd which is basically equivalent to a 3rd round pick according to the point value system….Fiske had first round grades by some experts and pairing him with his teammate is brilliant…..love this trade!
